FAQ
Can foreigners purchase property in Spain?
There are no restrictions on purchasing property in Spain, only requirements depending on the buyer’s nationality.
We are here to guide you every step of the way and make the process of buying property in Spain as seamless as possible.
Can I obtain citizenship if I purchase a property?
The Golden Visa or Gold Visa is a residency visa for investors. The investment can be in a financial asset, real estate, or business project.
The purchase of a property worth 500,000 euros without debt would allow for the application for a residency visa. This could involve the acquisition of several properties, but at least one must be intended for the investor’s main residence in Spain.
If the investment is made through a company, the applicant must be the majority shareholder.
Nevertheless, residency can be applied for by anyone who meets the economic requirements for their location and livelihood.
