September is a genuinely good month to view and buy property in Mallorca. Fewer transactions recorded in September<\/a> mean less competition from other buyers, and sellers who have been on the market through summer are often more open to negotiation. The broader picture supports this: Balearic Government transfer-tax receipts fell to \u20ac330.6 million in H1 2026<\/a>, with INE recording approximately 6,795 home sales up to June, around 691 fewer than the same period in 2025. A cooler market with rising per-unit prices rewards prepared buyers. Vogue Properties Mallorca can advise on current stock and realistic offer levels before you travel.<\/p>\n

Three steps to take before booking flights:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Request a Nota Simple, the latest IBI (annual property tax bill), and community-fee accounts for any property you plan to view.<\/li>\n
  2. Agree a short list of three or four properties with your agent so viewings are focused, not scattered.<\/li>\n
  3. Instruct a local solicitor or buyer agent to handle due diligence before you arrive.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
