The risky part of buying a home in Spain is rarely the viewing. It is the quiet gap between a tempting asking price, the bank’s risk model, the deposit contract, and the tax bill that appears before the keys. A buyer who has checked the mortgage rules, the registry record and the Catalan tax treatment before making an offer is not being slow. They are protecting the deposit.

This guide keeps the original step-by-step intent of the article, but anchors each decision in official or professional sources: Banco de Espana for mortgage discipline, the BOE for Law 5/2019, notaries and registrars for conveyancing, and the Catalan tax agency for purchase taxes.

## [Before you start, check whether the purchase can survive the bank](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#before-you-start-check-whether-the-purchase-can-survive-the-bank)

Start with the mortgage, not the flat. Banco de Espana’s [mortgage access guide](https://www.bde.es/wbe/es/publicaciones/miscelanea/guia-de-acceso-al-prestamo-hipotecario.html) explains that the borrower must understand the loan’s financial burden before signing, while its client portal advises buyers to review their income, expenses and future payment capacity before [asking for a mortgage](https://clientebancario.bde.es/pcb/es/blog/pensando-en-pedir-una-hipoteca.html). That is the first filter.

A practical budget should include the down payment, purchase taxes, notary and registry costs, appraisal, moving costs and a cash reserve. For a resale home in Catalonia, the [Agencia Tributaria de Cataluna](https://atc.gencat.cat/es/tributs/itpajd/operacions/immobles/compravenda-immobles/) is the source to check for transfer tax treatment; for the mortgage itself, Law 5/2019 in the [BOE](https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-2019-3814) sets the consumer-protection framework around real estate credit agreements.

The uncomfortable rule is this: a bank can like the property and still reject the borrower. Simone Colombelli, Director de Hipotecas at iAhorro, puts the risk plainly: “El problema en este perfil es que las ratios estan mas ajustadas y el riesgo en el conjunto de la operacion es mayor.” His analysis of [single-borrower mortgage risk](https://www.iahorro.com/blog/educacion-financiera/tasa-single-hipotecas) is not a legal rule, but it is a useful reminder that affordability is judged on the whole file.

Warning

Do not treat a portal mortgage simulator as approval. Use it as a first estimate, then ask the lender what documentation it needs and what maximum instalment it would actually accept.

## [Step 1, build a budget that includes taxes and friction](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#step-1-build-a-budget-that-includes-taxes-and-friction)

Many buyers calculate the price and the deposit, then leave the rest vague. That is where mistakes start. The [Catalan tax agency](https://atc.gencat.cat/es/tributs/itpajd/operacions/immobles/compravenda-immobles/) should be checked before committing to a resale purchase in Catalonia, and the [notarial guide to buying a home](https://www.notariado.org/comprar-una-vivienda/) is a useful reference for the formal steps around the deed.

Work backwards from cash available today. Separate four buckets: contribution to the price, tax and purchase expenses, mortgage-related expenses that remain yours, and post-completion reserve. Banco de Espana’s [guide](https://www.bde.es/wbe/es/publicaciones/miscelanea/guia-de-acceso-al-prestamo-hipotecario.html) and its article on [requesting a mortgage](https://clientebancario.bde.es/pcb/es/blog/pensando-en-pedir-una-hipoteca.html) both point to the same discipline: compare the debt with stable income, not with optimism.

For Barcelona buyers, the reserve matters more than it looks. A flat can need furniture, minor repairs, community payments and utility changes within the first month. If the purchase consumes every euro, the first repair becomes a financing problem.

## [Step 2, get the mortgage file ready before visiting seriously](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#step-2-get-the-mortgage-file-ready-before-visiting-seriously)

Pre-approval is useful because it tests the borrower before the deposit contract puts money at risk. Banco de Espana’s client portal gives practical advice for [signing a first mortgage](https://clientebancario.bde.es/pcb/es/blog/consejos-para-firmar-tu-primera-hipoteca.html), and Law 5/2019 in the [BOE](https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-2019-3814) regulates the pre-contractual documents and borrower information duties.

Employees normally need ID, payslips, tax return, employment contract, work-history evidence and bank statements. Self-employed buyers should expect a deeper file: tax returns, quarterly filings, business income evidence and proof of being up to date with public obligations. The exact list changes by lender, so ask for it in writing.

When comparing offers, look beyond the headline nominal rate. The APR, linked products, early repayment terms and fixed-versus-variable structure affect the real cost. Banco de Espana’s [mortgage guide](https://www.bde.es/wbe/es/publicaciones/miscelanea/guia-de-acceso-al-prestamo-hipotecario.html) is the safer reference point than an advert promising a low monthly payment.

## [Step 3, search with legal checks already in mind](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#step-3-search-with-legal-checks-already-in-mind)

Property visits should be emotional enough to know whether you would live there, but technical enough to spot the next questions. The [registrars’ step-by-step buying guide](https://www.registradores.org/principal/revista/otros/comocomprarunavivienda/) explains why the property record matters, and the [notaries’ guide](https://www.notariado.org/comprar-una-vivienda/) shows how the legal formalisation sits at the end of the process.

During visits, check light, noise, damp, visible installations, lift condition, community areas and signs of works that may need permits. Ask for the latest community fee, planned assessments and energy certificate. If the building is old or the flat shows humidity, a technical inspection can save far more than it costs.

This is also where the buyer should separate preference from risk. A small kitchen is preference. An unresolved registry charge, a doubtful extension or a large community debt is risk.

## [Step 4, make the offer and deposit conditional on evidence](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#step-4-make-the-offer-and-deposit-conditional-on-evidence)

Negotiation should be based on comparable homes, visible condition and the seller’s constraints, not on a random discount target. Before signing any deposit contract, check the property information through the [Property Registry route described by the registrars](https://www.registradores.org/principal/revista/otros/comocomprarunavivienda/) and the conveyancing steps explained by the [Consejo General del Notariado](https://www.notariado.org/comprar-una-vivienda/).

The deposit contract should identify the parties, property, price, payment timetable, signing deadline and consequences if either side withdraws. If the purchase depends on financing, discuss whether that condition appears in the contract. This point is not cosmetic. Losing a deposit because the bank later rejects the file is a very expensive way to discover that the offer moved faster than the mortgage.

Use plain language when negotiating. “I can offer this price with mortgage pre-approval, subject to a clean registry check and a signing date in this window” is stronger than enthusiasm without conditions.

## [Step 5, verify ownership, charges and purchase documents](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#step-5-verify-ownership-charges-and-purchase-documents)

Due diligence is not a ceremonial step between the offer and the notary. The [registrars](https://www.registradores.org/principal/revista/otros/comocomprarunavivienda/) explain the role of the Registry in checking ownership and charges, while the [notarial guide](https://www.notariado.org/comprar-una-vivienda/) places those checks inside the deed process.

Ask for the nota simple, energy certificate, habitability documentation where applicable, latest IBI receipt, community debt certificate and seller identification. If the seller is a company, inheritance estate or represented by someone else, the authority to sell must be clear before the signing appointment.

Information

The safest habit is simple: do not let the calendar pressure you into signing before the registry, tax and mortgage questions are answered.

## [Step 6, understand the mortgage documents before the notary meeting](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#step-6-understand-the-mortgage-documents-before-the-notary-meeting)

Once the lender approves the operation, the paperwork becomes more formal. Law 5/2019 in the [BOE](https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-2019-3814) regulates borrower information, and Banco de Espana’s advice on [first mortgage signing](https://clientebancario.bde.es/pcb/es/blog/consejos-para-firmar-tu-primera-hipoteca.html) explains why the buyer should read the conditions before the appointment.

The FEIN and FiAE are not paperwork to skim in the waiting room. Review the interest rate, term, repayment system, linked products, early repayment terms and what happens if rates change. The notarial pre-signing step exists so the borrower can confirm they understand the mortgage before completion.

For costs, distinguish purchase costs from mortgage costs. The [BOE law](https://www.boe.es/buscar/act.php?id=BOE-A-2019-3814) governs the mortgage framework, while the [Catalan tax agency](https://atc.gencat.cat/es/tributs/itpajd/operacions/immobles/compravenda-immobles/) is the reference for Catalonia’s purchase tax treatment.

## [Step 7, sign, register and protect the file after completion](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#step-7-sign-register-and-protect-the-file-after-completion)

The signing day formalises the purchase, but it does not end the administrative trail. The [notarial guide](https://www.notariado.org/comprar-una-vivienda/) explains the deed stage, and the [registrars’ guide](https://www.registradores.org/principal/revista/otros/comocomprarunavivienda/) covers the registration logic that follows.

Before the appointment, confirm the notary, payment method, identity documents, deed draft, tax handling and delivery of keys. After signing, change utilities, notify the community, track tax settlement and keep the registered deed and mortgage documentation together.

The buyer who finishes well has a clean file: deed, registry evidence, mortgage documents, tax payment evidence, community certificate and utility changes. It is not glamorous paperwork. It is what makes the next sale, refinancing or inheritance easier.

## [Practical mistakes to avoid before you commit](https://pedroochoa.com/en/blog/ultimate-guide-buying-home-2025-steps-requirements-tips/#practical-mistakes-to-avoid-before-you-commit)

The most common mistakes are predictable. Buyers visit without a mortgage range, sign deposits before checking the Registry, underestimate taxes, ignore community costs or let urgency replace evidence. Banco de Espana’s [mortgage access guide](https://www.bde.es/wbe/es/publicaciones/miscelanea/guia-de-acceso-al-prestamo-hipotecario.html) and the [client banking portal](https://clientebancario.bde.es/pcb/es/blog/pensando-en-pedir-una-hipoteca.html) both point back to the same discipline: understand the debt before committing to the asset.

My practical rule is stricter than most buyers like: if a point cannot be checked, priced or written into the contract, do not rely on it. A verbal promise about repairs, furniture, timing or financing support is weak protection compared with a clear clause and a source document.

For a first purchase in Barcelona, the best next step is specific. Request the mortgage documentation list from two lenders, ask for the nota simple on any serious property, check the Catalan tax treatment, and review the deposit contract before transferring money. The viewing can wait a day. The deposit may not come back.

Expert note
