This shows that Germans in particular are happy to invest their considerable assets in real estate on the island in uncertain times of money market policy.\u00a0For some time now, there has been lively discussion about this fact and whether the sale of real estate to foreigners should be restricted.\u00a0Foreign buyers in particular bring money to the island with one-time and permanent taxes

Since then, these figures have only been recorded in the Spanish Chamber of Notaries.\u00a0In the whole of 2021, properties worth 6 billion euros were sold in the Balearic Islands. This brought the Balearic Islands tax revenues (land transfer and stamp duties) of 836 million euros, 60% of which came from sales contracts involving foreigners. This does not yet include the tax that an EU national has to pay on the profit generated by the sale of a property on the island.\u00a0In addition, construction companies and craftsmen also benefit from this development. A regulation on the purchase of real estate for foreigners would also hit this industry enormously and probably create a mass of unemployed.\u00a0With a ban or restriction on the sale of property to foreigners, many of the pillars on whose income the Balearic government depends would falter and cause great hardship to the government coffers.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, there is nothing standing in the way of buying property in Mallorca.
