The local Town Hall tax \u2013 plusval\u00eda \u2013 has been charged on all property sales, inheritances and donations for many years. In some cases the tax has been tens of thousands. This is despite the fact that the property owner may have made a loss on the sale particularly on properties bought in the property boom and sold after the crash in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>This court ruling mirrors other regional court decisions in Madrid, Catalonia, Valencia and Rioja. The reasoning of the Judge is that the <em>plusval\u00eda <\/em>whose full title is \u2013 Impuesto sobre el Incremento del valor de los terrenos de naturaleza urbana \u2013 is implicitly a tax on an increase in value. Since the beginning of the crisis many people have sold at a loss so a tax referring to \u201can increase in value\u201d is inherently unjustifiable. The decision on the sale of a property in Fuengirola cannot be appealed to a higher court as the amount of the claim is less than 30.000\u20ac. Interest will also be payable on the amount to be repaid by the Town Hall. Although Spanish courts are not automatically bound by precedent from a lower court this decision may help thousands of vendors to reclaim this tax.<\/p>\n<p>An immediate claim should be made by submission to the Town Hall which is not costly but stops your claim being time barred. However if the Town hall does not respond it may be necessary to make a claim through the courts.<strong> If you have paid this tax on a sale at a loss you may be able to make a claim<\/strong> for the return of monies paid. You will need copies of the deeds and evidence the tax has been paid.
