Spanish mortgage: how much of your own money do you need to purchase a new build?
For foreign buyers, Spanish banks usually finance:
- 60% to 70% of the appraisal value
- Sometimes more for high incomes
This means that you generally need at least:
- 30% down payment
- plus purchase costs
What does buying a house in Spain really cost?
A common mistake is thinking that only the purchase price counts. Buying a house in Spain involves additional costs that you must calculate carefully in advance. Count on a total of approximately 12% to 15% in additional costs on top of the purchase price.
