on whether the property is new or second-hand. Knowing the differences between these taxes is essential to plan your budget effectively. Additionally, you must meet certain requirements to purchase a home in Spain.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"VAT_for_new_properties\"><\/span>VAT for new properties<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<p>Value Added Tax (VAT) is <strong>applied exclusively to new properties<\/strong>. This tax <strong>represents 10% of the total purchase price<\/strong> across most of Spain. In the Canary Islands, the equivalent is the IGIC (General Indirect Tax of the Canary Islands) at a rate of 6.5%. Additionally, social housing (VPO) has a reduced VAT rate of 4%. This means that if you purchase a new property for \u20ac200,000, you must pay \u20ac20,000 in VAT.<\/p>\n<p>VAT is not limited to residential properties; it also applies to garages and storage units bought together with the property, provided they do not exceed two parking spaces.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Transfer_tax_ITP_for_second-hand_properties\"><\/span>Transfer tax (ITP) for second-hand properties<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gilmar.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/gilmaroffplan.com\/2024\/10\/impuestos-compra-vivienda-segunda-mano.jpg\" alt=\"impuestos en la compra de una vivienda de segunda mano\" class=\"wp-image-47943\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Transfer Tax (ITP) is <strong>applied when purchasing second-hand properties<\/strong>. This tax is variable, as each autonomous community sets its rate. Generally, rates range <strong>between 6% and 10%<\/strong>. For example, in Andalusia and Madrid, the ITP is 7%, while in Catalonia, it can reach 10%. It is important to check the applicable rate in your region, as some communities offer reduced rates for young people under 35, large families, and people with disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Calculating the ITP is simple: multiply the property\u2019s price by the applicable rate. For example, to purchase a second-hand house priced at \u20ac150,000, if the ITP in your community is 8%, you would pay \u20ac12,000 in tax.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stamp_duty_AJD\"><\/span>Stamp duty (AJD)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<p>The Stamp Duty (Actos Jur\u00eddicos Documentados &#8211; AJD) is a <strong>tax paid when formalizing the public deed of sale<\/strong>. The AJD applies to both new and some second-hand properties, although it is more common in new purchases. The percentage varies <strong>between 0.5% and 1.5%<\/strong>, depending on the autonomous community. This tax is calculated based on the sale price and is mandatory to pay at the time of signing the deed.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that some groups can benefit from reductions in the payment of AJD, and there are exemptions for people purchasing properties through certain social housing programs.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Differences_between_taxes_on_new_and_second-hand_properties\"><\/span>Differences between taxes on new and second-hand properties<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<p>The main difference between buying a new and a second-hand property <strong>lies in the taxes that must be paid<\/strong>.

On the other hand, the purchase of <strong>second-hand properties<\/strong> is subject to the <strong>ITP<\/strong>, with rates ranging from 6% to 10%. Although both taxes represent a percentage of the property\u2019s value, the rate can significantly impact the total cost.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the <strong>AJD <\/strong>is paid for <strong>both new and some second-hand properties<\/strong>, but the amount can vary depending on the transaction&#8217;s characteristics. For example, if you buy a new property on the Costa del Sol for \u20ac300,000, you would pay \u20ac30,000 in VAT. Conversely, if you purchase a second-hand home of the same value with an 8% ITP, you would pay \u20ac24,000.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_additional_costs_when_buying_a_property\"><\/span>Other additional costs when buying a property<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<p>In addition to the taxes payable when purchasing a property, there are other additional costs you should consider when planning your budget.
