In the case of granting the residence visa, the foreigner has one month from the notification to collect it personally. If he/she does not do so, it will be understood that he/she has renounced the visa granted, and the procedure will be archived.
Once the visa has been collected, the applicant must enter Spain within the period of validity of the visa, which in no case will exceed three months.
The initial authorization of temporary residence will have the duration of one year and the validity will begin on the date of entry into Spain.
Within one month of entry into Spain, the foreigner must apply in person for the foreigner's identity card at the Immigration Office or Police Station in the province where the authorization has been processed.
Yes, you need to be in Spain for at least six months if you want to renew it same visa again. In any case, you can apply again the next year.
Nevertheless, it is clear a Property Ownership Visa needs to be granted.

You can obtain a non lucrative visa and stay in Spain just for 6 months ( less than 183 days) so you will avoid becoming tax resident.
The 6 months requirement is for the sake of automatic renewal on the next year: a requisite for the renewal of this once first year has passed is that you have not been out of Spain for more than 6 months in a year.
