EU and non-EU citizens can freely purchase property in Spain with no restrictions. You will need a NIE number (Número de Identidad de Extranjero), which is a Spanish tax identification number. Your lawyer obtains this on your behalf.
Visum / verblijf
Spain's Golden Visa grants residency to non-EU buyers investing €500,000 or more in real estate, including family members and free Schengen travel.
Stapsgewijs aankoopproces in Alicante
Tijdlijn: 2–4 months from offer to completion. Cash purchases complete faster (4–6 weeks).
Find property & make offer
Work with a local agent to identify suitable properties. Make a verbal or written offer. If accepted, move to the reservation step.
Reserve property
Pay a reservation deposit (typically €3,000–€10,000) to take the property off the market and stop the seller accepting other offers. Usually non-refundable if you withdraw.
Obtain NIE number
The NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) is your Spanish tax identification number — required for all property transactions, opening a bank account, and paying taxes in Spain. Your lawyer applies for it. Takes 2–4 weeks.
Legal due diligence
Your lawyer checks the property is legally clean: verifies the title deed, confirms no outstanding debts or mortgages are attached to the property, and checks all building permits are in order.
Sign private purchase contract (Contrato de Arras)
The Contrato de Arras is a binding private contract between buyer and seller. You pay 10% of the purchase price as a deposit. If the seller pulls out, they must pay you double the deposit back. If you pull out, you lose the deposit.
Complete at notary
A Spanish notary is a state-appointed official who verifies all documents are legal and authentic. Both buyer and seller attend. You sign the Escritura (the official deed of sale), pay the remaining balance and all taxes, and receive the keys.
Register ownership
Your lawyer registers the Escritura at the Land Registry (Registro de la Propiedad), making your ownership officially public and legally protected. Takes 4–8 weeks.
