for services and procedures: notary, land registry, estate agency, documentation and, where relevant, mortgage arrangements. These are different from taxes paid to public authorities. Who pays depends on the item, the contract and the applicable law.<\/p><\/header><figure class=\"ph-tax-hero\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" src=\"https:\/\/puntohabitat.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/AdobeStock_431322182-scaled-1-e1711268782140.webp\" alt=\"Bright living room in a Barcelona home\" title=\"Costs of buying or selling a home in Barcelona\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" loading=\"eager\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\"><\/figure><section class=\"ph-tax-section\"><h2>Costs the seller may need to cover<\/h2><ul><li><strong>Estate agency:<\/strong> the agreed fee and applicable VAT. Confirm the services included and when payment becomes due in writing.<\/li><li><strong>Documents and certificates:<\/strong> obtaining or renewing the habitation and energy certificates, a community debt certificate and any required technical documents. Not every document needs renewal for every sale.<\/li><li><strong>Removing a mortgage from the registry:<\/strong> where a charge must be cancelled, there may be notary, registration and administration fees if the procedure is outsourced.<\/li><li><strong>Advice or regularisation:<\/strong> legal, technical or registration work for matters such as unfinished inheritance procedures, discrepancies in floor area or outstanding charges.<\/li><\/ul><p>Repaying the outstanding mortgage principal settles a debt: it is neither a fee nor a tax. Any early repayment compensation must be checked against the contract and the applicable legal limit.<\/p><\/section><section class=\"ph-tax-section\"><h2>Costs the buyer may need to cover<\/h2><ul><li><strong>Purchase deed:<\/strong> in Catalonia, the cost of executing the deed and issuing its first copy is borne by the buyer unless an agreement or special rule provides otherwise.<\/li><li><strong>Land Registry:<\/strong> the fee for registering the acquisition.<\/li><li><strong>Administration or advice:<\/strong> if contracted to review documents or process the transaction.<\/li><li><strong>Appraisal and financing:<\/strong> when a mortgage is required, subject to the law and the loan terms.<\/li><li><strong>Additional services:<\/strong> technical inspections, translations or powers of attorney where needed.<\/li><\/ul><p>Any agency fee payable by either party should be identified in the relevant agreement. There is no universal percentage that applies to every transaction.<\/p><\/section><section class=\"ph-tax-section\"><h2>Purchase and mortgage deeds have different cost rules<\/h2><p>The costs of buying the property are separate from those of arranging the mortgage. For mortgages covered by Law 5\/2019, the lender pays the notary fee for the loan deed, registration and administration costs. The borrower pays for the appraisal and requested copies. Mortgage stamp duty is payable by the lender under tax law.<\/p><p>This does not make the lender responsible for the costs of the purchase deed itself. Older loans and special cases require a review of the applicable rules.<\/p><\/section><section class=\"ph-tax-section\"><h2>How to budget without counting items twice<\/h2><ol><li>Request itemised quotations and check whether VAT is included.<\/li><li>Check which documents remain valid and which services your agency agreement covers.<\/li><li>Separate service costs, taxes and repayment of outstanding debts.<\/li><li>Allow for issues that may need resolving before completion.<\/li><\/ol><p>No single figure fits every property. The price, financing, available documentation and services contracted all affect the budget.<\/p><\/section><section class=\"ph-tax-section\"><h2>Taxes are calculated separately<\/h2><p>Sellers need to consider capital gains tax and municipal plusval\u00eda. Buyers usually pay transfer tax (ITP) on a resale, or VAT and stamp duty on a first supply subject to VAT. These are separate from notary and estate agency fees.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/puntohabitat.es\/en\/taxes-on-home-sales\/\">Read our guide to taxes when selling a home \u2192<\/a><\/p><\/section><section class=\"ph-tax-section\" id=\"faq\"><h2>Frequently asked questions about transaction costs<\/h2><details><summary>Are costs and taxes the same?<\/summary><p>No. Costs pay for services or procedures; taxes are charges imposed by public authorities. A professional invoice may include VAT: identify the fee and the tax to avoid counting either twice.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>Who pays the purchase notary in Barcelona?<\/summary><p>In Catalonia, the general rule assigns the cost of executing the deed and its first copy to the buyer, unless an agreement or special rule says otherwise. Check the contract and distinguish this from the mortgage deed.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>Must I renew every certificate before selling?<\/summary><p>Not necessarily. First check validity, the condition of the property and the documents required for that particular sale. Only budget for the work that is needed.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>Does repaying the mortgage remove the registered charge?<\/summary><p>No. Repaying the debt and removing its Land Registry entry are separate procedures. Registration of the cancellation requires the appropriate paperwork and processing.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>How much will I keep after selling?<\/summary><p>Deduct debts to be repaid, your transaction costs and applicable taxes from the final sale price. A valuation helps estimate the price, but the final amount depends on each owner\u2019s circumstances.<\/p><\/details><\/section><section class=\"ph-tax-cta\"><h2>Start your budget with a property valuation<\/h2><p>We help you prepare the sale, review the documentation and understand the transaction costs.
