Direct ownership

The property itself

Title to a specific home—not an immigration product.

The property: Spanish purchase (ITP or VAT path).

Residency pathway not applicable

No residency pathway needed

For this corridor there is no investment-linked residency pathway to add—and that's a clean outcome, not a gap. Free-movement and domestic buyers already hold the right to live here, so the property stands on its own: you proceed with the purchase and nothing about it depends on a visa.

You may pursue one path, both in parallel, or neither—each is assessed on its own merits with counsel.

Recommended sequence

1. Property brief.
2. The property: diligence and closing.
3. No residency pathway applies.

Destination context

Buying property in Spain does not grant residency. The Golden Visa was repealed in full on 3 April 2025; purchase remains legal—it simply no longer yields a residence permit.
