Buying property in Cornellà de Llobregat: what the numbers say
These are asking levels for the whole town, not agreed sale prices and not your street. They are where a number starts, not where it ends.
What it costs to buy there
Transfer tax is set by the region, here Catalonia, so the same flat costs a different amount to buy depending on which side of a regional border it sits.
| Line | Amount |
|---|---|
| Asking price, 80 m² | €236,000 |
| Transfer tax (ITP), Catalonia | €23,600 |
| Notary | €800 |
| Land registry | €600 |
| Gestoria | €400 |
| Cash to complete, no mortgage | €261,400 |
A resale at the asking price above. Costs are 10.8% of the price. A new build is taxed differently: IVA plus stamp duty instead of ITP.
Notary, land registry and gestoria barely move with the price. The tax is what makes the difference between towns.

What it lets for, and what tax takes
At €1,200 a month the flat brings in €14,400 a year before anything comes out. What the taxman takes then depends on where you are tax resident, not on where the flat is.
An EU or EEA landlord is taxed on the rent after deductible costs; a landlord from outside, the UK included, is taxed on the gross. The figures below apply the rates to the gross rent, so the EU column is a ceiling: your real costs bring it down, and the analyser works that out from them.
| Landlord | Tax on the rent | Kept after tax |
|---|---|---|
| EU or EEA resident | €2,736 | €11,664 |
| Outside the EU | €3,456 | €10,944 |
Applied to gross rent with no deductions, which is exactly right for a non-EU landlord and a worst case for an EU one.
How Cornellà de Llobregat compares
A town only means something next to the ones around it. The same square metre in the province and in the region as a whole:
| Area | Sale, per m² | Rent, per m² a month | Gross yield |

| Barcelona (province) | €3,338 | €19.0 | 6.8% |

Gross yield is annual rent divided by price, before costs, tax and vacancy. It is a comparison tool, not a return.

- Is Cornellà de Llobregat a good investment?
- That depends on the actual flat, and Yald does not give investment advice. What the figures here tell you is what the town asks, what it rents for and what the taxes are, which is enough to see whether a particular listing is priced with or against the market.
