New-build projects in Spain

Yes. Under Spanish law (Ley 20/2015), property developers are legally required to guarantee all advance payments using a bank guarantee (Aval Bancario) or an official insurance policy. This ensures that every euro you pay prior to completion is fully protected and refundable if the builder fails to deliver on time.

All new-build developments in Spain include statutory builder guarantees governed by the Building Ordinance Act (LOE): 10 Years: Coverage for structural flaws (foundations, load-bearing walls). 3 Years: Coverage for habitability and installation defects (plumbing, electrical, insulation). 1 Year: Coverage for cosmetic finishing details.

New-build properties are subject to 10% VAT (IVA) plus Stamp Duty (AJD), which ranges between 1.2% and 1.5% depending on the region. Resale properties, by contrast, incur Transfer Tax (ITP). Overall purchase costs for new builds generally total around 12% to 14% of the purchase price.
