Is this a good rental investment?

What is the buying process in Spain?
The Spanish buying process starts with obtaining an NIE (foreigner identification number). After agreeing a price, you sign a reservation contract with a deposit (typically EUR 3,000-6,000). The next step is the arras contract, where you pay 10% of the price. Completion takes place at a notary, where the escritura (title deed) is signed and the balance paid. The whole process typically takes 6-10 weeks from reservation to completion.
