Our entire network of agents, title companies, insurance, conventional lenders, private lenders, and many others come together to make this an enjoyable experience.

I lived in Madrid, Spain for about 8 months and I am curious if it is possible for non-residents to successfully have rental properties within the country.My concern is mostly from a tax standpoint and whether it makes sense.My research shows that Non-residents of Spain(but a resident of Europe) pay a flat rate of 19% on NET RENTAL INCOME.Non-residents of Spain(Not a resident of Europe, such as the USA) pay a flat rate of 24% on GROSS RENTAL INCOME.The difference of paying tax on Net and Gross is huge.Americans are not able to deduct expenses such as mortgage interest, taxes, insurance, cleaning, repairs, etcA pro that I can think about when it comes to invest in Spain is that overall costs are less - Mortgage rates are currently around 4% - 4.5% while it is around 6.5% - 7% in the US.Am I reading the tax law correctly?

Payments $492 (interest, tax, insurance) currently owe $51K.

Right after I closed on that one the insurance company demanded I make a couple thousand dollars of repairs.

Rents may be high, but where are taxes and insurance.

My biggest conundrum now is I want to be my own GC because even when I play with smaller numbers they’re still out of reach for me to be able to attain this goal and afford the monthly mortgage with taxes and insurance.

Should the Owner require the Manager to make unscheduled visits to the property(insurance proposes) above and beyond the duties outlined in this Agreement, a fee of $75 +GST will be charged per visit.Thoughts??

A good rule of thumb is to have 3-6 months of expenses (mortgage, utilities, insurance, etc.) set aside per property for emergencies.

The units are all currently occupied right now, so we won't have to worry about the buyer's market right now haha.With the cash flow I will receive, it will be enough to take care of property taxes, insurance, and enough to save up for any emergiences with the unit that I will need to take care of, so no need to worry, I got you :)!

Think about it, was it harder or easier to plumb a house with cast iron or galvanized piping or Pex.
