The cost of buying a home in Arteixo

Roughly a third of dwellings, 27,79 %, are not a main residence. Arteixo is a town rather than a city, which in A Coruña usually means one estate agency network knows most of the stock. At 1.698,7 €/m² the appraised average sits below the national middle.

What the deed itself costs

Galicia applies 8 %, at the heavier end of the ordinary range. Buying an existing home in Arteixo means paying the Galicia transfer tax on top of the price, not out of it.

An ageing cadastral register

Arteixo has not revalued since 2008, which is long enough for the gap to market values to be substantial.

Building work is taxed at 3,5 %, near the top of what town halls may charge.

The yearly bill, and why it is small here

Cadastral values in Arteixo average 61.639 € per dwelling, an ordinary base.

Arteixo levies 0,4 % on urban property, one of the lowest IBI rates you will meet.

Land classed as rural is taxed at 0,65 %.

On 180.000 € of cadastral value the 0,4 % rate yields 720 €, on a register that has not been refreshed in a long time.

The cadastral value in this example is a round illustrative figure, not the cadastral value of any particular property here. Ask for the last IBI receipt: it states the real one.
