Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for 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. On top of taxes, allow approximately EUR 600 to 1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400 to 800 for land registry registration, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal fees. 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, and it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically access mortgage finance, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30 to 40% of the purchase price. Current variable and fixed rates in Spain broadly range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though individual offers depend on your financial profile and the lender. We recommend obtaining a mortgage agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this property are currently nil. The annual IBI figure is not yet available for this new build and should be confirmed with the agent or developer once the property is registered. Basura charges are also not yet confirmed. Utilities will vary with usage.
Can I view this property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment for buyers who cannot travel to El Madroñal in person. A member of our team will walk through the property or the developer's show suite on a live video call and can follow up with additional photos, plans, or documentation. In-person viewings can be arranged with advance notice.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
El Madroñal is a private residential urbanisation in Benahavis rather than a high-footfall tourist zone, so it attracts longer-term or seasonal lets rather than short-term holiday rentals. Demand tends to come from families and professional tenants seeking privacy and proximity to the Marbella and Estepona golf corridor. A local property manager can advise on realistic rental expectations for a villa of this size.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you agree a price, the developer typically requires a reservation fee to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract, often an arras agreement, at which point a further deposit is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, who records the transfer, and the deeds are then registered at the Land Registry. Appointing an independent solicitor before you sign anything is strongly recommended.
