Borrowing

How much can you borrow for a Spanish mortgage?

The amount a Spanish bank will lend is set by its loan-to-value limit, or LTV, the share of the property value it will finance. The cap depends on whether you are buying as a resident or a non-resident.

70% Typical maximum LTV for non-residents buying from overseas, so a deposit of at least 30%.
80% Typical maximum LTV for Spanish tax residents, so a deposit of around 20%.

That percentage is measured against the lower of the purchase price or the bank's own valuation. We go into more detail in our guides for non-resident buyers and resident buyers.

One detail that catches buyers out: if the bank's valuation comes in below the price you agreed, the mortgage is calculated on the lower figure and you cover the difference. Occasionally the valuation is higher, which can work in your favour.

Rates

Spanish mortgage interest rates

Spanish lenders offer three main types of rate. Each one prices and behaves differently over the life of the loan.

Fixed rate The same interest rate, and the same monthly payment, for the whole term. The benefit is certainty: you are protected if rates rise.
Variable rate Priced as 12-month Euribor plus the bank's margin (the diferencial), typically between 0.50% and 1.50%. The rate resets once a year, so the payment moves up or down with Euribor.
Mixed rate A fixed rate for the first few years, then variable for the rest of the term.

Euribor is the reference rate that drives variable mortgages. As a guide it has recently been around 2.6%, although it moves constantly. Because variable rates can rise as well as fall, the calculator's variable mode shows three Euribor scenarios, optimistic, flat and a stressed case, so you can see how your payment would change. For more detail, see our guide to mortgage rates in Spain.

The rate you enter in the calculator is your own assumption, not a quote. Your actual rate depends on the lender, the product and a full assessment of your application.

Spanish Mortgage Affordability Calculator

Check your debt-to-income ratio, the affordability measure Spanish lenders use to decide what you can borrow.

Include credit cards, loans, car finance and any existing mortgage payments.

Your estimated debt-to-income ratio

10%

0%30%40%100%

If your ratio is under 40%, you have a good chance of qualifying for a Spanish mortgage.

This is a quick indicative estimate, not a mortgage decision or financial advice. Spanish lenders assess affordability individually as part of a full application. Foxes is a credit intermediary registered with the Bank of Spain (D470), not a lender.

Affordability

How much can you afford?

Alongside the deposit, lenders test affordability: whether your income comfortably covers the new mortgage on top of your existing commitments. The key measure is your debt-to-income ratio, your total monthly debt payments divided by your net monthly income.

40% The debt-to-income ceiling Spanish lenders generally work to. Your total monthly debt, including the new mortgage, should stay below this share of your net monthly income. The income and debt calculator on this page flags where you fall.

Lenders look at the stability of your income as much as the amount. A steady, documented income, applying early, and keeping other debts low all improve your chances. If your income is not paid in euros, some lenders apply a margin to allow for exchange-rate movement. You can check how likely you are to qualify with our eligibility score.

Maximum Purchase Price Calculator

See the maximum property price your deposit supports, based on your residency and typical buying costs.

Your deposit is the cash you have towards the property itself, before buying costs.

Your estimated maximum purchase price

€238,000 to €250,000

Assumes a 70% maximum mortgage and 10 to 12% purchase costs.

This is a quick indicative estimate, not a mortgage decision or financial advice. The amount a lender will offer depends on income, the property and a full assessment. Purchase costs vary by region and property type; this estimate uses a 10 to 12% range. Foxes is a credit intermediary registered with the Bank of Spain (D470), not a lender.

Upfront costs

Your deposit and the other costs of buying

Your deposit is the part of the price the mortgage does not cover, at least 30% for non-residents or 20% for residents. On top of that, you need to budget for the costs of buying.

10 to 12% Of the purchase price for buying costs: transfer tax (ITP) on resale homes, or VAT plus stamp duty on new builds, along with notary, land registry and legal fees.
40 to 42% The cash a non-resident buyer needs overall, as a rough rule: the 30% deposit plus 10 to 12% in costs.

The exact figure depends on the region and whether the property is a resale or a new build. The maximum purchase price calculator on this page works back from the cash you have available to a realistic budget.

Eligibility

Who can get a Spanish mortgage?

Spain lends to non-resident buyers from a wide range of countries, both employed and self-employed, for holiday homes, investment properties and main residences. The main requirements are a deposit, provable income and an acceptable credit history.

To apply you will typically need:

  • Your passport
  • Your NIE, the Spanish tax number for foreigners
  • Recent payslips, or accounts and tax returns if you are self-employed
  • Bank statements
  • Proof of any other debts
  • The details of the property you are buying

Getting these ready early is the single biggest thing that speeds an application up. Our lending criteria guide goes through what banks look for in detail. There is usually a maximum age by the end of the term, commonly around 75, which can shorten the term available to older applicants.

The process

How the mortgage process works

From first estimate to completion, a Spanish mortgage follows a clear path.

  1. Estimate your budget This calculator is a good starting point for what the monthly cost might look like.
  2. Mortgage assessment A lender confirms what you can actually borrow.
  3. Find a property and agree the price With your budget confirmed, you can negotiate with confidence.
  4. Valuation and formal offer The bank values the property and issues a binding mortgage offer.
  5. Reflection period By law the lender must give you the binding offer documents (the FEIN and the FiAE) at least 10 days before you sign.
  6. Completion at the notary You sign, the mortgage draws down and the property is yours.

An independent broker manages the lender side of all this for you, comparing options across the market rather than selling one bank's product. That is what Foxes does, and we are only paid once a bank has issued you a formal mortgage offer. Our purchase process guide covers each step in more detail.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much can I borrow on a Spanish mortgage?
Up to 70% of the property value as a non-resident, or up to 80% as a Spanish tax resident. The final figure depends on affordability, your income and the property valuation.
How much deposit do I need for a Spanish mortgage?
At least 30% of the purchase price as a non-resident, or 20% as a resident. Budget a further 10 to 12% for taxes and fees, so a non-resident usually needs around 40 to 42% of the price in cash overall.
What are current Spanish mortgage interest rates?
Rates change constantly and depend on the lender, the product and your profile, so we do not quote a single figure. Variable rates are priced as Euribor (recently around 2.6%) plus a bank margin, and fixed rates are set per product. The calculator lets you enter any rate to model the cost.
Can non-residents get a mortgage in Spain?
Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-resident buyers from many countries. Non-residents are usually limited to 70% LTV and may see different rates and terms from residents.
How is my monthly payment calculated?
On a capital-and-interest (repayment) basis, the standard method for Spanish mortgages. Early payments are mostly interest and later payments mostly capital. The calculator's amortisation schedule shows the split year by year.
What mortgage term can I get in Spain?
Most Spanish mortgages run 20 to 30 years. Up to 40 is possible but usually only for residents. The term is also capped by age, as the mortgage normally has to end by about 75, which can shorten the term for older applicants.
How many times my salary can I borrow?
Spanish lenders do not use a simple salary multiple. They use affordability instead: your total monthly debt, including the new mortgage, should generally stay below about 40% of your net income. The income and debt calculator on this page estimates this for you.
Should I choose a fixed or variable rate?
A fixed rate gives a guaranteed payment for the whole term, which suits buyers who want certainty. A variable rate tracks Euribor and can fall as well as rise. A mixed rate combines the two. The right choice depends on your view of rates and how much payment certainty you want.
What costs come on top of the mortgage?
Transfer tax or VAT, notary and land registry fees, and legal costs, together usually 10 to 12% of the purchase price. The calculator uses the interest rate only and excludes these, so the real cost of buying is higher than the monthly payment alone.
Is the calculator result a mortgage offer?
No. The calculator is a tool, and the rate and other inputs are figures you choose. The result is an estimate, not a quote or a recommendation. Your actual rate and the amount you can borrow are confirmed by the lender after a full assessment.
