THE LEADING FINANCING EXPERTS IN SPAIN
LEARN MOREIn general terms the maximum mortgage available is up to 70% loan-to-value for non-residents and up to 80% loan-to value for Spanish tax residents. The lower of the two values between the purchase price and valuation will be the base. This percentage can vary depending on different factors. In Spain, the maximum affordability ratio or debt-to-income is between 25% and 40%, this includes all existing debt. There are exceptional circumstances where a higher percentage can be obtained or a higher affordability ratio can be considered.
Each client and application is unique as all applicants have different circumstances and priorities, and we must take into account age, nationality, tax residence and other factors to see which are the best options at all times for each client. From personal mortgages for own investment and use to property development mortgages, the Lionsgate Capital team will help you at each and every stage of the process.
It is important to ensure the property can be mortgaged and legal advice is highly recommended (we can recommend various top law firms if required).
For each type of mortgage in Spain the rates and conditions vary between banks and also change on a regular basis. Due to the volume of transactions and our relationship with the banks and their management teams, the Lionsgate Capital team ensure they obtain the very best interest rates on your behalf, at all times.
If you are a Spanish tax resident you have different products available and opt for a higher loan to value, of up to 80% or even 90% loan to value in some cases, depending on the valuation.

We offer Lombard loans to our Private Banking clients, where an investment portfolio either in Spain or abroad is used as collateral to borrow funds in Spain and maximize their return on investment. Lombard loans can also be used in addition to a mortgage to maximise taxation and return on investment.
Interest-only mortgages are currently not available in Spain, with the exception of construction mortgages where the first 18 to 24 months can be interest only, until the property is finished. We do have some international banks we collaborate with that offer interest only options to private banking clients that hold a minimum investment of 500.000,- to 1Mio EUR with them.
If you wish to lower your monthly payment to the minimum, we always recommend you apply for the longest term possible, as some banks do offer longer terms than others.
