Questions fréquentes
What are the estimated purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new-build property in Andalusia, you pay IVA at 10% (EUR 194,800) rather than ITP. Additional costs include notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (approximately EUR 19,480 + VAT). Budget a total of roughly EUR 215,000–216,500 on top of the asking price.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend up to 60–70% of the purchase price to non-resident buyers, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is required. On EUR 1,948,000, that equates to a deposit of approximately EUR 584,400–779,200. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from around 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and your financial profile. We can introduce you to independent mortgage brokers who work with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0 per month for this development. The annual IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed as this is a new-build property; the figure will be confirmed once the catastral reference is registered. Utility costs will depend on usage, and the property carries an energy rating of G.
Is it possible to view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot visit in person straight away. A member of our team can walk through the property or development showroom with you via a live video call at a time that suits you. In-person viewings in Whater Gardens, Estepona can also be arranged around your schedule.
What is the rental potential for this penthouse in Estepona?
Estepona is a tourist municipality, and properties of this size and specification attract demand from the short-term holiday rental market as well as longer-term tenants. A tourist rental licence (VUT) is required for holiday lets in Andalusia and must be applied for before marketing the property. We recommend speaking with a local lettings agent for current rental demand data specific to Whater Gardens.
How does the purchase process work in Spain?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is the tax identification number required for all property transactions in Spain. Once you have agreed on the purchase, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to secure the property. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point 10% of the purchase price is usually paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes and fees are settled and the title deed (escritura) is transferred into your name.
