One of the cheapest ways to convert currency is with  currencyfair

Exchange rates far more competitive than banks.

The only drawback is that you need to be able to access a bank account in the converted currency .

hello Doc,

 

Yes, the renta tax is due regardless whether the property is let or not.

Tax is due monthly on any income from property.

renta tax is due from anyone who owns a property in Spain  that is not deemed to be their main residence

 

As to whether the debt is attached to property ---   Not sure

hope this helps
