EXPENSES WHEN SELLING YOUR PROPERTY: CALCULATE THE CAPITAL GAINS TAX   A few months ago, we published this article to explain one of the most important expenses when selling a property: the Capital Gains Tax. The article was very complete, but at the same time, it turned out to be complicated to understand if you are not familiar with these types of calculations. For this reason, at Agrucasa, we came up with the idea of creating a Capital Gains Tax calculator from scratch, using AI to generate the code. The result is a quite reliable and very easy-to-use tool. In just a few clicks, you can calculate the tax you will have to pay when selling your property. What is the Capital Gains Tax when selling a property? If you don't know what Capital Gains Tax is, I'll explain it briefly. Its abbreviation stands for PERSONAL INCOME TAX. When selling a property, it is the tax you must pay on the profit obtained. In this case, it is based on the gain you make when selling your property. It’s very simple: if you bought a property at a certain price and sell it for a higher amount, you make a profit, and the Tax Agency will require a percentage of that profit, which you will have to pay when filing your tax return. If you do not make a profit on the sale, you won’t have to pay anything. What if you are not a tax resident in Spain? If you are not a resident, a 3% withholding will be applied to the sale price when selling your property. If you sold at a loss, you can request a refund of that 3%. Simply put, when you sell your house, the buyer will withhold 3% and submit it using Form 211, and you will need to submit Form 210 to request the refund. On the other hand, if you made a profit exceeding the retained 3%, you will have to pay the corresponding difference. At Agrucasa, we offer you a tool that allows you to estimate the Capital Gains Tax you will have to pay when selling your property. The tool is designed to cover most situations, but each case may have its particularities. Therefore, we recommend consulting with a tax advisor to obtain an exact calculation and ensure that all applicable exemptions or reductions are correctly applied. .container { background: #fbfbfb; border-radius: 10px; padding: 20px 30px; max-width: 500px; margin: 30px auto; box-shadow: 0 2px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.1); border: 1px solid #cfcfcf; clear: both; } .container h1 { text-align: center; color: #5f5f5f; font-weight: 600; font-size: 17px; } .container form label { display: block; margin: 15px 0 5px; color: #353535; text-align: left; font-weight: 600; } .container form input[type="date"], .container form input[type="number"] { width: 100%; padding: 8px; font-size: 17px; border: 1px solid #ccc; border-radius: 4px; box-sizing: border-box; } .container form input[type="checkbox"], .container form input[type="radio"] { margin-right: 5px; } .container form button { background: #007BFF; color: #fff; border: none; padding: 10px 20px; font-size: 17px; border-radius: 5px; cursor: pointer; margin-top: 20px; display: block; width: 100%; } .container form button:hover { background: #0056b3; } .container .resultado { margin-top: 20px; background: #e9f5ff; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid #b3d7ff; } .container .resultado p { margin: 8px 0; } .container .viviendaOpciones, .container .nonResidenteOpciones { margin-left: 20px; padding: 10px; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px solid #ddd; border-radius: 4px; } IRPF Calculator for Properties Purchase Date: Sale Date: Purchase Price (€): Sale Price (€): Acquisition Expenses (€): Renovation or Other Deductible Expenses (€): Sale Expenses (€): Check if it's your primary residence I am over 65 years old Reinvested Amount in a New Residence (€): Check if you are not a tax resident in Spain Please indicate if you belong to the EU/EEA: Yes, I belong No, I do not belong The tax will be calculated on the benefit (capital gain) as follows: 19% for EU/EEA residents 24% for non-residents outside the EU/EEA In addition, the IRPF at 3% (on the sale price) will be shown and the difference calculated. Select to apply the abatement coefficients: Apply abatement coefficients The abatement coefficients reduce the capital gain based on the number of years elapsed until 31/12/1996. If you purchased your property before 1994, you may benefit from this reduction. Check this option if you wish to apply it in the calculation.

WHY INVEST IN REAL ESTATE? Can you imagine traveling more, enjoying more free time, and securing your family's future? Investing in real estate can make these dreams a reality. Renting out your properties generates passive income each month, while the value of your properties increases over time. It’s one of the safest ways to build a solid financial future.   Benefits of Investing in Real Estate Passive income: Monthly rental income provides a steady cash flow that you can use to fund your projects, travel, or simply improve your quality of life. Property appreciation: Over time, real estate properties tend to increase in value. If you decide to sell in the future, you could make a profit compared to the purchase price. Diversification: Reduce the risk of your investments by diversifying into a tangible and stable asset like real estate, which is not linked to the performance of financial markets. Financing: You have the option to finance part of the purchase through mortgage loans, allowing you to keep your capital intact and increase your investment capacity. Start Your Investment Today   BUYING A PROPERTY TO RENT Investing in a property to rent is an excellent option for generating long-term passive income and has been a popular choice for a long time. But before diving into investment, you need to be clear about how much money you can save and understand the key aspects of financing.   Savings Capacity and Financing Opting for a mortgage when buying a rental property helps you avoid depleting your capital and allows you to use borrowed funds to finance part of the investment instead of relying solely on your own resources. By using financing strategically, you can acquire more properties or higher-quality homes. Your savings capacity will determine how many properties you can acquire in the coming years and at what pace. It's important to avoid depleting your capital completely when buying a property, so financing the purchase might be the best strategy. Keep in mind that for a second property, whether for rental or as a vacation home, banks consider this transaction riskier than buying a primary residence. Therefore, they usually finance between 50% and 75% of the property's value, with repayment terms typically not exceeding 25 years. This means you will need to provide more initial capital and possibly face a higher interest rate than on a mortgage for a primary residence.   Associated Costs In addition to the initial capital, you will need to cover taxes and costs associated with the purchase. In the Valencian Community, the property transfer tax is 10% of the property's value, although this percentage varies by autonomous community. Additionally, there are notary and registration fees, as well as other additional costs related to financing, such as insurance.   Limited Savings Capacity If your savings capacity is limited but you have some money saved and would like to invest in a rental property, the first thing you should do is request a personalized financial study from your bank. Everyone has a different financial situation, and factors such as the ability to secure the loan with another property or having high income can influence the amount of money the bank will lend you. The interest rate is usually lower on operations with more limited risk. With this study, the bank will indicate the type of property you can purchase, the maximum price you can afford, and most importantly, the monthly payment you will need to make. With this information, you can compare the rental income you could receive from a property to the mortgage payment you will need to make. Evaluate if the rental income covers the mortgage payment and associated costs, such as community fees (if the property is part of a homeowners' association), contributions, and other costs that may arise and are not the tenant's responsibility. Remember, if you acquire a property with a 10-year loan, you might generate few benefits until the loan is paid off. It's a long-term investment. To understand better, look at this example which you can adapt to any amount Imagine you buy a property for €150,000 and provide 50% of the value (€75,000). By the time you finish paying off the loan, you will have acquired a property worth €150,000 having only provided half of the price, as the acquisition costs (Taxes, Notary, and Registration) are the same with or without financing. Additionally, the rent you receive will cover the interest and loan payment. In the future, you might sell the property for a price higher than the purchase price, thus increasing your profitability. In this example, the annual return would be between 7% and 10%. Investors with High Savings Capacity If you have a high savings capacity, such as businesspeople, investors, athletes, or prominent personalities, investing in real estate can be an excellent way to grow your wealth. If you have sufficient capital, you can combine buying financed and non-financed properties, giving you more balance and flexibility to build a solid rental property portfolio. This strategy allows you to diversify your investments and make better use of your capital. As your properties are paid off, you will generate more income that you can reinvest in new properties, growing your wealth year after year. By buying properties this way, you will be building a more stable financial future, generating monthly income without having to work actively and letting your money work for you. A good strategy is to buy both financed and non-financed properties. This combination helps reduce the risk of relying on a single financing strategy. It is important to keep in mind that real estate investment carries certain risks.

Below, we’ll explore various strategies to help you maximize the return on your investment.   Affordable Homes: If you choose to invest in affordable homes on the Costa Blanca, especially in Torrevieja, you might focus on 1 or 2 bedroom properties with an estimated rent between €400 and €600 per month. Consider also areas near the coast, such as Los Montesinos, Formentera, Rojales, Dolores, or Almoradí, where you might find 2-bedroom apartments at more attractive prices. Large Apartments: Another strategy is to invest in large apartments in high-demand areas with limited supply. Instead of renting out the entire property, you could rent it by the room. For example, if apartment rents in an area are around €800 per month, you could rent a 3 or 4 bedroom apartment by the room, generating between €350 and €400 per room. This model is popular among students and people who prefer to share costs. Strategic Location: Location is a key factor in any real estate investment. Consider investing in properties located in central areas, frontline beach locations, or areas with high urban demand. Such properties can command higher rents, attracting tenants willing to pay more for a prime location. New Build Investments: Investing in new build properties can be very appealing. Whether it's villas or apartments, new properties often offer higher rental returns due to their modernity and appeal to tenants. Additionally, they don’t require immediate repairs, are covered by warranties, and over the long term, their lifespan will be longer than that of a second-hand property, making them a more durable investment.   Diversification and Gradual Growth There are many more investment strategies, each focusing on different types of properties. As mentioned earlier, the ideal approach is to diversify your portfolio across various types of properties and assess which is most profitable. If this is your first time investing in rental properties, I recommend starting gradually. Purchase an initial property, rent it out, and once it begins generating passive income, consider acquiring a second property. The flexibility in this business allows you to sell properties if needed, adding great versatility to your investment portfolio.   RENTAL PROPERTY RETURNS If you have the necessary capital, acquiring properties to rent can be an excellent option. This strategy not only generates passive income but also requires minimal time dedication. In terms of profitability, annual returns typically range between 7% and 10%, making it a competitive investment. When comparing these returns with the average annual yields from fixed-term deposits in banks, which generally range between 1.5% and 4%, or the average return of a company in Spain, which is usually between 5% and 6%, investing in rental properties stands out as an interesting and solid alternative. Moreover, it offers the advantage of long-term stability and appreciation in value over the years. If you’re interested in building wealth for your future, this is a great opportunity. Contact us to start building your investment portfolio.   POTENTIAL RISKS Investing in properties is a great option for generating income, but it’s important to be aware of potential risks. The most common include rent default by tenants and illegal occupation of the property. Having a tenant who doesn’t pay and won’t leave can be a real headache if you don’t take precautions from the start. In Spain, you can reduce these risks by taking out Rental Insurance. This insurance, which typically costs about half of one month’s rent, offers comprehensive coverage for various unforeseen events. With rental insurance, you’ll be protected against non-payments, legal costs, vandalism, illegal occupations, and debts for utilities such as electricity and water. This solution provides peace of mind that your investment is protected. Get proper advice to minimize the risks of your investment.
