Spain
Madrid · Barcelona · Marbella & Costa del Sol
A growing destination for Lebanese buyers chasing Mediterranean lifestyle at prices below France — Marbella and the costas for holiday homes, Madrid and Barcelona for city living.
Can foreigners buy? No restrictions on foreign buyers — but note Spain TERMINATED its golden visa in April 2025; property purchase no longer grants residency. An NIE (foreigner tax number) is required before you can buy anything.
