The real price of a villa
Villa Cost Calculator
Purchase price and country: taxes, fees, annual running costs and the ten-year total, with rental income if you let it.
Purchase costs and property taxes follow the rules described in buying property abroad; running costs assume 0.8 percent of value for maintenance, insurance at 0.15 percent, staff and services for a full-service villa, and utilities. Rental income is netted for management and a rough income tax. Ask a cross-border advisor before you sign.
