Local data
Price data
Transfer tax in Spain is set by each autonomous community, not centrally — the same €1m purchase costs materially more in some regions than others. These are the figures that apply to a Mallorca purchase.
Official price per m² and purchase taxes for Mallorca, Q2 2026
Source for price per m²: Ministerio de Transportes y Movilidad Sostenible (MITMA), Valor tasado de la vivienda libre, Q2 2026 (published September 2026). Figures are the official average bank-valuation price of private housing (vivienda libre), in euros per m², for municipalities over 25,000 people or, where a town is not published, the province or region shown. Valuation prices usually sit below portal asking prices. Tax rates are the headline rates published by each autonomous community.

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 8–14 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.

Before you apply
Identity and NIE, two years of income evidence, six months of bank statements, source of wealth and the property paperwork — our free checklist sets out every document Spanish lenders ask international buyers for, by applicant profile.
Also consider bridging
Non-resident Spanish mortgages typically take 8–14 weeks. Where timing is tight — auctions, off-market deals, chain-breaks or a pending home-country sale — short-term bridging can complete in 2–4 weeks and refinance onto a mortgage later.
