Every year, thousands of people flock to Spain for the weather, the sights, its fantastic culinary experience and culture. Many of these fall in love with the way of life here and decide to invest in a property of their own to enjoy as often as they able to get away, however, many fall foul of the Spanish tax system and without realizing it, do not fulfil some of their obligations as property owners.
