Asking rents of the homes we track. Declared rents come from tax returns and run about two years behind.

No grade for mortgage defaults or squatting (okupación), on purpose. Spain publishes both only for the whole province, so a Retiro grade would be invented precision.

The building itself

What the advert says about the building, and how to check it.

Spain’s land registry (the Catastro) records every building’s size, age and use. The first two figures are the agency’s; pull the building’s own record below to check them.

Things that would change the deal

Spanish situations that catch foreign buyers out.

None of these are unusual in Spain, and none of them are visible in a photo. Each one changes what you are actually buying.

  • Sold with a tenant already in it

    Vendido con inquilino. You inherit their contract — in Spain that can run five more years at the rent they already pay.

    Ask the agency
  • You buy it, the seller keeps living in it

    Nuda propiedad, literally “bare ownership”. You own the home but cannot use or let it until the seller dies. Prices look like a bargain for this reason.

    Ask the agency
  • Someone is living there without permission

    Okupas. Removing them goes through the courts and can take well over a year.

    Ask the agency
  • Being sold at auction

    Subasta. You usually cannot view it first, and you may take on the previous owner’s debts on the property.

    Ask the agency
  • No first-occupancy licence

    Sin licencia de primera ocupación. The building cannot legally be lived in yet, which also means most banks will not lend on it.

    Ask the agency
  • Tourist lets in this district

    Vivienda de uso turístico (a licensed tourist flat). The city’s Plan Especial de Hospedaje restricts new ones in parts of this district.

    Partly restricted

We do not yet read listings for these. Ask the agency before you offer; your lawyer confirms each one in the nota simple (the land-registry extract).

None of this tells you whether to buy it.

It tells you what to ask, what to budget, and what a fair number looks like. The verified agent can tell you the rest.
