This approach allows you to have a legal presence in the country, which is often necessary for investing there if you don’t live in Spain.Having a virtual office in Spain through your LLC could help you access local tax benefits and deductions, such as expenses for mortgage interest, repairs, and insurance, which non-residents typically cannot claim.It’s worth consulting with a tax or legal advisor familiar with both the US and Spanish systems to ensure compliance and take full advantage of this option.

Also, there’s much to delve into on of those scenarios, like what type of cashflow or investment do you want, etc. residential, multi-res, small multi-res, commercial, industrial, etc.There seems to be fewer deals around these days and this typically benefits the more experienced and skilled investors but there are always multiple investors that get “tripped-up” in these markets due to them relying on recent “fortunate” market circumstances only to realize the markets cycle and they weren’t prepared or didn’t underwrite properly to account for unforeseen potential.There are more considerations, but this is a start.
