Net yield is after Spain's non-resident rental income tax (modelled at the non-EU 24% rate on net profit; EU/EEA residents pay 19%) and assumes deductible STR expenses — standard for EU/EEA owners and, per recent rulings, available to non-EU owners; confirm with a Spanish tax adviser. Holiday lets don't qualify for the 60% long-term-rental reduction.
