Frequently asked
Yes. Non-resident buyers (US, UAE, UK and European) can access mortgages on Mallorca property, typically up to 60–65% LTV via Spanish and international lenders.
Plan for a 35–40% cash deposit plus c.10–12% in purchase costs — ITP transfer tax, notary, registry and legal fees.
Yes, though rural, listed or unusual properties (fincas, agroturismos, Serra de Tramuntana estates) may require specialist private-bank lenders.
Yes. Short-term bridging is regularly arranged against Mallorca assets for auction, off-market or refurbishment purchases, typically for 6–24 months.
Yes. Prime coastal villas in Puerto Andratx, Deià, Valldemossa and Pollença are strong lender collateral, though very high-value estates often sit with private banks.
Yes — selected international lenders and private banks will lend in GBP or offer multi-currency facilities against Mallorca property.
Yes. Spanish and international lenders typically want 2–3 years of accounts, SA302s or tax returns; company directors can combine salary, dividends and retained profits, and private banks will lend against wealth or asset-backed income where earned income is complex.
Most Spanish retail lenders require the mortgage to end by age 70–75; private banks and international lenders can extend to age 80, and interest-only structures are available for older borrowers with strong assets.
Both. Long-dated fixed rates, variable rates linked to a benchmark, and mixed fixed-then-variable products are all available to non-residents — we compare the whole market against your income profile and holding period. Current pricing is provided on enquiry.
Plan for 6–10 weeks from full application to notary, subject to a clean valuation, title and NIE. Bridging can complete faster — typically 2–4 weeks once due diligence is underway.
The three most common exits are refinance onto a long-term Spanish mortgage, sale of another asset (often a home-country property in the UK, US or elsewhere), or sale of the Mallorca property itself once refurbished, repositioned or short-term let.
Non-regulated bridging on Spanish property is priced case-by-case, based on LTV, location, borrower profile and the strength of the exit. Expect a monthly interest cost plus an arrangement fee, legal and valuation costs — we provide indicative pricing after a short call.
Yes. Non-resident remortgages and equity-release refinances are available up to 60–65% LTV — commonly used to cut rate, raise capital for another purchase, or restructure onto interest-only or a longer term.
Yes — both are required to sign at notary and drawdown a Spanish mortgage. We coordinate NIE, bank account opening, lawyer engagement and FX alongside the finance so timelines stay aligned.
