Following the tax reform of 2014, tax rates in real estate were revised downwards in 2015 and fell in 2016. A tax advantage which makes real estate investment all the more attractive thanks to a rate of tax on capital gains revised downwards in the event of resale and better profitability for rental investment. For non-residents the tax rate has increased from 24.75% in 2014 to 19.5% since July 2015 and will be 19% in 2016. A much more attractive tax rate than in France for example (between 25% and 41% according to the marginal tax brackets for earned income to which rental income must be added and taking into account social contributions). It’s time to get some great deals in Spain!
