Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this villa?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2%. ITP does not apply. Both rates are set by the Autonomous Community of Andalucía. On top of taxes, budget for notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees at approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet this region's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Non-resident buyers can typically access mortgage financing in Spain, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Interest rates for Spanish mortgages currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, depending on the lender, loan type, and your financial profile. Speak to an independent mortgage broker with Spanish market experience before committing.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Annual IBI (council tax) and community fees are not yet confirmed for this new-build property — the agent can provide updated figures as they become available. As a large villa, allow for standard utility costs including water, electricity, and gardening or pool maintenance services.
How can I arrange a viewing?
Viewings can be arranged in person or via a live video tour if you are unable to travel to Benahavis at short notice. Contact the OceanHome team to book either option at a time that suits you.
Does this property have rental potential?
Cortés sits within the Benahavis municipality on the Costa del Sol, an area with strong year-round demand from both short-stay and longer-term visitors. A six-bedroom villa with a private pool is a property type that tends to attract holiday rental interest. To let the property on a short-term basis you would need to register for a tourist rental licence issued by the Junta de Andalucía. The agent can advise on the registration process.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE number (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for any property transaction. The usual sequence is: a reservation agreement to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) where typically 10% of the price is paid as a deposit, and finally completion before a Spanish notary who registers the title. For a new build, payments are often staged against construction milestones. Engaging an independent Spanish property lawyer from the outset is strongly recommended.
