Fixed 25 years: 3.4–4.2% depending on bank, profile and product bundling. Mixed (5–10 yr fixed then variable): 3.1–3.8%. Pure variable (Euribor + spread): Euribor (~2.5%) + 0.85–1.4%.

The most active non-resident lenders

  • Sabadell — the most foreigner-friendly desk
  • CaixaBank (HolaBank) — strong international division
  • BBVA
  • Bankinter
