Investment Properties
Yield, licence and exit: assessed honestly, including when the numbers do not work.
Ibiza is a strong capital growth market and a seasonal income one. Confusing the two is the most expensive mistake investors make here.
A property with a valid ETV licence and a short-season high yield is a different asset from an unlicensed villa bought for appreciation. Both can work. They are not the same trade.
We model the actual numbers: including management, tax, void months and the 3% non-resident retention on exit.
Before you view anything
The licence is the asset
An ETV licence materially changes the income and the resale value. It is property-specific, it does not always transfer cleanly, and it must be verified.
Season length
The north earns for ten weeks. The south earns for twenty. Gross yield quoted without season length is a marketing number.
Exit costs
Capital gains, plusvalía municipal, and the 3% retention for non-residents. Model the exit before you model the entry.
Best locations for this
Yield concentrates in Sant Josep and Eivissa; capital growth has been strongest in Santa Eulària's inland villages.

Frequently Asked Questions
Licensed holiday rentals in strong locations can achieve 4 to 6% net after management and tax. Anyone quoting double digits is quoting gross, in peak weeks, ignoring voids.
For short-term holiday letting, yes, without exception. Letting without one carries substantial fines. Long-term letting operates under different rules.
The last decade says yes, driven by constrained supply rather than speculation. Past performance is not a forecast: we would rather show you the transaction data than an opinion.
Rental income is taxed in Spain, and a 3% retention is withheld from the sale price on exit against your capital gains liability. Engage a Spanish tax adviser early.
