The neighbourhood
What Son Dureta is
Son Dureta borders Son Armadams, and our own listing on that border puts the Palma Sport & Tennis Club at an eight minute walk and Santa Catalina, with its restaurants and bars, at ten.
It is a residential quarter rather than a destination. The buildings are gated communities with gardens rather than street-front blocks, and the daily services are around the corner instead of on the square.
Who buys here
The buyer this neighbourhood suits
Buyers who want Santa Catalina and the harbour inside a walk, and who would rather have a lawn, palm trees and a shared pool inside a gate than a terrace over a busy street. It is the part of this corner of Palma where space is still bought by the square metre rather than by the address.
The homes
What the buildings are
Gated communities from the early 1970s with well-kept gardens and a large pool. Ours is on the second and top floor, renovated, space-efficient, with a master bedroom en suite, a loft bedroom above it, a separate storage room and a balcony that holds the afternoon sun.

Buying in Palma
Three things that apply wherever you buy
- The tax page
The transfer tax
A resale property in the Balearics carries transfer tax, ITP, in bands: 8 per cent up to 400.000 €, rising to 13 per cent above 2.000.000 €, with stamp duty of 1,5 to 2 per cent on top. A new build carries 10 per cent VAT instead of ITP.
- The purchase process
Securing the property
When the terms are agreed the home is secured through an Arras, a private contract between the two parties, usually written by the buyer's lawyer, with ten per cent of the price deposited into the notary account and deducted from the final payment.
- The new rules
The agent register
Law 3/2024 requires every estate agent in the Balearics to be entered in the official register, ROAIIB, and to carry that registration number in every contract. Ours is GOIBE605090/2024.
