For more information please contact us directly. Rental Obligation All apartments in this development are required to be rented out for part of the year. The benefit of this is that you can relax in the knowledge that your apartment is earning an income for you. Buyers pay the gross purchase price and then have a choice; either to claim back all (or part) of the VAT or make no VAT claim at all. You are permitted to claim back all the VAT (the full 20% VAT) if you rent your apartment commercially and do not use it yourself. If you declare in advance that you will be using the apartment partly for your private use then the amount of VAT you may reclaim depends on the ratio of personal use to rental use. The hotel management company, CD Hotels, can also manage the letting out of your apartment for you and take care of guests arriving and departing. Various European tour operators will be involved with the rental process, helping to ensure that you get a good rental return from your apartment.
