It depends on the town and the urbanisation, the size, the condition, the aspect and the views, and extras such as a pool, garage or solarium. According to the INE House Price Index published on 7 September 2026, house prices in Spain rose 12.2% year on year in the second quarter, and the Valencian Community by 13%. The valuation tool on this page gives you a first reference; for a reliable figure I need to see the property.

The municipal capital gains tax (plusvalía), the tax on the capital gain, the energy performance certificate, cancelling any mortgage charge at the Land Registry, the pro-rata council tax (IBI) for the year, and the agency fee. If you are not tax resident in Spain, the buyer is legally required to withhold 3% of the price and pay it to the Spanish tax office on account of your capital gain.

The asking price is the decisive factor. A property priced at market value and well photographed generates viewings within the first weeks. Starting above the market usually ends in several price reductions and a final sale below the real value, because the listing goes stale and buyers dismiss it.

The ones that show and cost little: paint, lighting, bringing the kitchen and bathroom up to date, air conditioning, and a deep clean with depersonalisation. Large, highly personal works are rarely recovered in full. Before you spend, ask me: I will tell you what is worth doing in your specific case and what is not.

Yes. The valuation costs nothing and commits you to nothing. You receive my analysis within 48 hours and you decide whether to go further.
