Twenty years inside Spain’s Tax Administration, now on your side. From NIE to notary to rental — independent, end-to-end, in plain English.
You’re about to make one of the biggest investments of your life in a country whose tax system you don’t fully understand.
You’ve been told different things by different people. Agents recommend advisors who work for them. And you can’t tell who’s actually on your side.
That’s exactly what this practice was built to fix.
Two decades at SUMA handling real estate enforcement. The rules, the edge cases, the discretion — learned from the inside, not from a textbook.
No commissions from the other side of the table. You pay the advisor, the advisor works for you. That’s the whole model.
From NIE application to notary signing to annual Modelo 210 — one point of contact, one single coordinated workflow.
NIE, bank account, utilities, due diligence, notary — a single coordinated workflow from first viewing to key handover.
Modelo 210, ITP, plusvalía, wealth tax, rental declarations. Built on 20 years inside SUMA — no shortcuts, no surprises.
Cash-flow analysis, asset selection, portfolio review. The discipline of a fund applied to single-asset buyers.
Operational management, short-term and long-term rental, maintenance, legal compliance — delivered by VITA Host.
A single client can move through Investment Advisory → Property Purchase → Property Management without ever leaving the group. That’s the competitive advantage in 30 seconds.
Sarah Katerina Investment crunches the numbers — yield, tax, opportunity cost.
Sarah Katerina handles the full legal and tax process end-to-end.
NIE, Modelo 210, ITP — every tax declared, filed, paid on time.
VITA Host operates the asset: bookings, maintenance, compliance.
Restructured the purchase vehicle before signing the arras — only possible because the tax specialist was involved before the agent was chosen.
Full-cycle: investment analysis, purchase, tax setup, and management handoff to VITA Host — one coordinated workflow across three service lines.
Below, the five questions we hear most often from foreign buyers.
No. Most of our clients start the process remotely — from the UK, Netherlands, Germany, France, the US. Sarah holds Spanish power of attorney on your behalf when needed.
Roughly 11–14% on top of the purchase price: ITP or VAT, notary, registry, legal fees, and plusvalía. We give you the exact number in writing before you sign the arras.
Yes. We handle the full setup with partner banks that accept non-residents, including the paperwork that trips most buyers.
Annually: Modelo 210 (non-resident tax) and IBI. If you rent, Modelo 210 quarterly plus income declaration. All managed in our Tax Advisory service.
Typically 6 to 10 weeks from arras to notary. We manage each milestone so you always know where you stand and what comes next.
A sample of foreign buyers we've worked with since 2024. Quotes anonymised by request, results verifiable on a call.
“The diagnostic flagged a Modelo 210 miscalculation that would have cost me €12,400 over three years. We renegotiated the purchase structure before signing the arras. Best €347 I have spent on this whole purchase.”
“After three years of overpaying because our gestoría copy-pasted the previous filing, Sarah filed a back-year correction and recovered €1,840 from Hacienda. Now she handles Modelo 210 every quarter — €95, plain English, no calls to chase.”
“I was ready to sign on what looked like a great buy-to-let. The 48-hour analysis showed the net yield was 2.3 %, not the 7 % the agent had promised. I walked away. Saved a €280,000 mistake.”
