Questions fréquentes
What are the total purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new build, this apartment is subject to IVA at 10% rather than ITP, which amounts to EUR 66,900. You should also budget for notary fees (approximately EUR 600 to EUR 1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400 to EUR 800), and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (approximately EUR 6,690 plus VAT). Total additional costs typically fall between EUR 74,000 and EUR 76,000.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks generally lend up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is typically required. On EUR 669,000 that equates to a deposit of roughly EUR 200,700 to EUR 267,600. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the range of 3.5% to 4.5%, though rates vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently registered at EUR 0 per year; this figure should be confirmed with the developer as the community may not yet be fully constituted. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build property and will be set by Fuengirola town hall after the first occupation licence is issued. Rubbish collection charges are also to be confirmed.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a video viewing via WhatsApp or video call if you are unable to visit in person. We can walk through the development, show you the communal areas and the unit layout, and answer questions in real time. In-person viewings are available by appointment.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday letting?
El Higuerón has an active short-term rental market given its proximity to Playa de Carvajal and Málaga Airport. To let legally on a short-term basis in Andalusia, you must register the property with the Junta de Andalucía and obtain a tourist licence (VFT). We recommend taking independent legal advice on licence eligibility before purchase if rental income is a priority.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE number, which is required for any property purchase. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point typically 10% of the price is exchanged. Completion takes place before a notary, where the title deed (escritura) is signed and the balance paid. Your solicitor will then register the title at the land registry.
