Our Services - Fees

Here at Rent To Buy Spain we work in the same way as a typical Real Estate Agent but we focus solely on Rent to Buy properties. The other main difference is that we permit Registered users to directly upload details of their properties on our internet portal. This enables the property to be visible immediately to the hundreds of visitors we have each week that are interested in purchasing a property via a Rent to Buy option.

We have our head office on the Costa Blanca North where you can visit us in person, from where we deliver all the usual Real Estate functions such as listings, marketing, promotions, viewing and contract negotiation. Like all other Real Estate Agents, we have fees for our services, however due to the uniqueness of our approach they are different to those charged via a standard rental or sales agreement.

We have aligned our charging structure to ensure that sellers are not paying any more than the standard 5% + IVA sales commission as charged by most Estate Agents in Spain for non-exclusive listings. Our fees are as follows: –

Registration	Free of charge
Listing properties	Free of charge
Private Sellers	No more than 5% + IVA commission of the sales value. Initial fee is the equivalent to 30% (thirty percent) of the initial payment instalment plus IVA at the start of the contract and the equivalent one month’s rent at each 12-month anniversary thereafter (until sold at notary) The initial fee and annual fees are deducted from the 5% + IVA commission (of the sales value) when contracts are finalised at notary. *see below
Collaborators – Estate Agents, Brokers, etc	Standard collaborative rates Your listed properties – 50% + IVA based on a 5% + IVA sale commission rate Your buying clients – 30% + IVA based on a 5% + IVA sale commission rate
Property Developers	No more than 5% + IVA commission of the sales value. Initial fee is the equivalent to 30% (thirty percent) of the initial payment instalment plus IVA at the start of the contract. The initial fee is deducted from the 5% + IVA commission (of the sales value) when contracts are finalised at notary.
Tenants / Buyers	Equivalent of 1 months’ rent + IVA at the start of the agreement and at each 12 month anniversary until purchased
