What a buyer pays in Girona (Costa Brava)
The $3,361 figure is a regional average across all residential property types, which flattens a wide spread — the most sought-after areas run well above it, the rest of the region well below. Buying costs — transfer tax or stamp duty, notary, registration and agency — come to about 15.3% of the price here. On a 100 m² apartment at the average price that is roughly $51,423 on top of the $336,100 purchase price. That is above the 9.5% median across the set — the entry cost is part of the investment case here. Of that, the transfer tax alone is 4–13% depending on the buyer and the property; the rest is notary, registration and agency fees.
What it earns
A square metre lets for about $16.5 a month. Against a purchase price of $3,361 per square metre that is 5.9% gross, before tax. Both figures come from the same source and the same period, so you can check the arithmetic yourself. It ranks 93rd of 311 markets by gross yield. Rental income is taxed at 19–24% — the rate is not a single number here. That is the difference between 4.5% and 4.8% net on the same property. The 4.8% net figure we publish uses 19%. On the way out there is a third tax: a non-resident seller pays 19% on the gain.
