Barcelona Property Market: how to buy your home

Having a roof over your head is the first step towards feeling at home if you are part of Barcelona’s international community. Finding the right place to live can affect work, commuting, education, social life and overall integration into the local community.

Deciding to purchase a property to be your home in Barcelona is an important decision, and you should have access to the best information. Understanding how the property purchasing process works here is crucial, as it may differ somewhat from your country of origin. 

In purchasing a flat or a house, you must carry out checks and procedures and pay certain taxes. Additionally, buying a home is one of the most significant financial transactions for most people, and you may require a mortgage.

In this session, we will analyse the current situation of the property market in the Barcelona area and review the factors to consider when buying a flat or house in the city.
