Nearly one in five homes in Alicante province had to cut its price last quarter. Starting too high costs months first, then money.
Not a Spanish tax resident? The buyer withholds 3% of the price for the Spanish tax office. Many sellers first hear this at the notary.
That's how many months it typically takes to see that 3% again. Don't count on it for your next purchase.
1. idealista, Q1 2026 price report (share of listings with a price cut, Alicante province) · 2. Agencia Tributaria, retention art. 25.2 LIRNR / Modelo 211 · 3. Agencia Tributaria, Modelo 210; refund period as commonly reported.
Then your home sits on the market for months while the price drops step by step. Price it right from day one and you sell faster — usually for more.
Commissions of 5 to 15% have been reported here, sometimes without the seller ever seeing the actual offer. With me, the commission and your net figure go on paper before you sign.
Energy certificate, habitation certificate, registered extensions. Whatever is missing, you want to know today — not three days before the notary.
Four short steps, no account needed. You'll see three things straight away: what you keep, which documents you're missing and what your home is worth on today's market. The card shows a sample statement.
Indication based on July 2026 rates (AEAT, Generalitat Valenciana, Ley 5/2025, RDL 26/2021). Not tax or legal advice — exact figures depend on your deeds, invoices and cadastral values.
This calculation works with market averages. I'll visit free of charge, no strings attached, and compare your home with real sales in your street. Then you have a price you can build on — and I put the commission and your net figure on paper before you sign anything. You'll hear from me within 24 hours.
You see for yourself the comparable sales and €/m² figures behind the number. The right price sells faster — and usually for more than a dream price that had to be cut twice.
At every offer you know exactly what percentage I charge and what is left for you. No surprises afterwards.
English or Dutch: you'll understand every document you sign. And whatever you don't understand, I'll explain until you do.
Costa Blanca Confidence is not an anonymous portal. I'm Nick Van de Velde, and I'm moving from Belgium to the Costa Blanca to work as an estate agent between Calpe and Moraira.
This report is free because I want to work the way I'd want to be treated myself: honest number first. If you'd like to work with me afterwards, gladly. If not, at least you now know where you stand — and which questions to put to any agent.

If you are not a Spanish tax resident, the buyer is legally required to withhold 3% of the sale price and pay it to the Spanish tax office (Modelo 211). It is not an extra tax but an advance on your capital gains tax. You settle via Modelo 210; if too much was withheld, you get the difference back. Allow 6 to 12 months.
It is a municipal tax on the increase in the value of the land since you bought. Since late 2021 you may choose between two calculation methods (objective or actual gain) and pay the lower one. Selling at a loss? Then nothing is due — but you must claim that exemption yourself with both deeds.
If you are a non-resident, the buyer is formally liable ("sustituto") and will usually retain the amount from the price.
In the Valencia region: the energy certificate (CEE), the licencia de ocupación or declaración responsable de segunda ocupación, a recent nota simple, your title deed, the latest IBI receipts, a community debt-free certificate and — with an outstanding mortgage — the bank's balance certificate for cancellation. The sale-ready check above covers them all.
It is the single most common deal-breaker in this region. Buyers and their lawyers now routinely compare the Registro, the Catastro and reality. Regularisation is often possible, but it takes time. Start before the sale, not during it.
No. It is a well-sourced indication based on current market and tax data, designed to protect you from the two classic mistakes: starting too high and being ambushed by costs. The real number comes from an on-site valuation, and that one is free.
