Despite the fact that the law has not yet been ratified by Parliament, the real estate market has already responded to increased demand for the price category. Although the Rossians have so far virtually no refusal to obtain a passive residence, when they acquire real property in Spain and declare their legality.

What are the costs incurred by the buyer when the property is in place?

In addition to the value of the facility specified in the contract of sale, the buyer pays public taxes (at the purchase of the primary real estate from the VAT developer is 10 per cent, at the purchase of the secondary market 8 per cent) and the processing costs (2 per cent to 3 per cent of the cost of the facility).

The crisis reduced the number of banks providing Russian mortgages. InvestPravo Property ' s partner banks, in providing an agreed set of documents confirming the capacity to pay of the borrower and the legality of the funds, are now providing mortgage loans to our clients on terms of 50 to 60 per cent of the value of the facility at 4, 5 to 5 per cent of the annual 20 to 25 years.
