Buying on Mallorca is open to all nationalities — Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers. As a non-resident co-owner, expect to pay Spain's transfer tax (ITP) of 8-13% depending on property value, split proportionally across owners. Most Kocomo shares are held through a registered LLC structure, which simplifies financing and keeps annual running costs (property tax, insurance, maintenance, management) around €3,000-4,500 per year for a typical 1/8 share. Our complete Mallorca buying guide covers financing, legal structure, and the full process.

Ibiza vs Mallorca: Which Island Is Better for Buying a Second Home?

How Co-Ownership Makes Luxury Property in Mallorca Finally Affordable
Luxury property in Mallorca has long felt out of reach for most buyers, with beachside villas commanding over €1 million and sitting empty for 300+ days annually.

The Real Cost of Owning a Villa in Mallorca — And How Co-Ownership Changes the Math
Buying a villa in Mallorca sounds like a dream until you see the real numbers. Purchase prices for quality properties now start at €600,000 and easily reach €2.5 million, but that's just the beginning. Annual running costs — property taxes, insurance, pool maintenance, gardening, and management fees — typically run €18,000 to €28,000 per year for a full villa. Add the fact that most owners use their Mallorca property fewer than 25 days annually, and the cost per day becomes eye-watering.

The Tramuntana mountains (Deià, Sóller, Valldemossa) suit buyers after authentic character over rental yield. See our zone-by-zone guide for the full breakdown.
Can foreigners buy property on Mallorca?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers of any nationality. You'll need a Spanish tax ID (NIE) and should budget for Spain's transfer tax (ITP) of 8-13% of the property value.
How many weeks per year can I use my share?
A typical 1/8 share allocates approximately 45 days (around 6 weeks) of personal use per year, scheduled through a fair-rotation calendar.
Is co-ownership the same as a timeshare?
No. Co-ownership gives you a deeded percentage of real equity in the property, registered at Spain's Land Registry — you can sell it, will it, or watch it appreciate. A timeshare only grants a right to use a unit for a fixed week, with no ownership stake. See our Timeshare vs Co-ownership Guide.
What are the ongoing annual costs of a Mallorca share?
Expect roughly €3,000-4,500 per year for a typical 1/8 share, covering your proportional split of property tax (IBI), community fees, insurance, maintenance, utilities, and professional management.
