The planning classification of the apartments is under a tourist regime which is set up to encourage rentals and therefore tourists to the area as opposed to owner occupied properties. This brings with it a number of benefits for investors. Firstly, the developer must engage a management company to manage the day to day maintenance and upkeep of the properties as well cleaning and rental management. Whilst the management company is not yet finalised but this is expected to be in place within the next 12 months, it will be a major benefit for buyers at The Village. It is expected that in keeping with other developments under this regime, the management company will offer a “guaranteed rental” package, where the owners are allowed 6 weeks annual use and the other weeks are handed over to the management company to rent out through travel agents. Similar “guaranteed rental” packages on other developments range from 3-5% of the property purchase price as an annual return along with all management costs paid for. The management company will be incentivised to offer some form of guarantee figure, otherwise there is no incentive for buyers to hand over their property. They might as well rent it out themselves. Secondly, “apartmentos turisticos” are classified as commercial property in Spain. This opens up a potential saving on VAT (Spanish IVA). All property in Spain is subject to a 7% tax on final completion. Commercial Property attracts 16% but is fully reclaimable. We have developed a package for buyers which will pay this and claim it back on their behalf, so the client does not see it. This will represent a saving of 7% vs any other apartment which does not have this planning classification.
