When it comes to wanting to buy a home, this is the last procedure that we will have to perform. The public deed is a document signed before a notary that reflects all the conditions of the sale, which provides legal certainty to the parties, and allows the registration of the property in the Land Registry.

Each property will have a different real estate appraisal value, depending on factors such as the type of property, the area, the characteristics of the property…

To assign a sale price to our home we will have to carry out a study of the supply and demand of the specific real estate market of the area and / or locality where it is located. Both the study and the valuation obtained from it, will be provided by one of our real estate agents.

The arras contract is a private contract concluded between the seller and buyer, which sets out the conditions of the contract of sale reached, including the purchase price, the method of payment and the maximum period to formalize the transaction before a notary. It is part of the so-called pre-contracts, where the parties are obliged to sign a contract of sale in the future, being provided as proof of this an amount of money as a signal or advance.

Used housing

. If it is a used home, i.e. a second or subsequent transfer, we will be taxed by the Property Transfer Tax (ITP). The rate of tax varies depending on the CCAA (Autonomous Communities) as it is a transferred tax, and the possible reductions that each Community has established (young people, large families, persons with disabilities, etc.).

New Construction Housing

. If it is a new construction dwelling, that is, a first transfer, it will be taxed by I.V.A., and in addition to assuming this tax, the buyer will be taxed by A.J.D. The rate of taxation of the latter tax varies depending on the CCAA (Autonomous Communities) as it is a transferred tax, and the possible reductions that each Community has established (acquisition of habitual housing).
