- That the taxpayer has his habitual residence in the Community of Castilla y León and that, on the date of accrual of the tax (normally, December 31), he is less than 36 years old .

These lists will be published on the Tax Portal of the Regional Government of Castile and Leon.
Note: Until December 31, 2015, the term "municipality" was used. From that date, the concept of population is modified for the purposes of applying the regional tax benefits for the acquisition or renovation of housing that will be the habitual residence in the territory of the Community of Castilla y León. In this regard, with effect from 1 January 2016, the Seventh Final Provision of Legislative Decree 1/2013, of 12 September, establishes that "To determine the number of inhabitants, the number established in the register of inhabitants in force on 1 January of each year published by the National Institute of Statistics will be taken." Previously, only the current municipal register of inhabitants was taken.
Note: This requirement must be met at the time of acquisition or renovation of the habitual residence. In the case of construction of a primary residence, this requirement must be met at the time when the first payment is made for the expenses arising from the execution of the works or, where applicable, the first payment of amounts on account to the developer of the residence.
- For those acquisitions that have taken place on or after 1 January 2016 , the value of the property, for the purposes of the tax levied on the acquisition, must be less than 135,000 euros .

Likewise, housing is considered to be newly built when the taxpayer directly covers the costs arising from the execution of the works.
- That the acquisition or rehabilitation of the home takes place after January 1, 2005 .

In the event of application of the aforementioned hedging instruments, the interest paid by the taxpayer will be reduced by the amounts obtained by application of the aforementioned instrument.
