Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this property?
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. Additional costs include 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 — and it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents a loan-to-value of 60–70%, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is usually required. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish banks are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though individual offers vary by lender, income profile, and term. We recommend obtaining an agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this development have not yet been confirmed; buyers should request the current schedule from the developer before exchange. The annual IBI (local property tax) has not yet been assessed by the Benahavis town hall, as this is a new-build property. The basura (refuse collection) charge has also not been confirmed. We will provide updated figures as soon as they are available.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to travel to La Quinta in person. A member of the team will conduct a live walkthrough via video call, covering the apartment, terrace, garden, communal areas, and parking. In-person viewings can be arranged on request and are available on weekdays and weekends.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Benahavis and the broader Marbella area attract consistent demand from short-stay visitors throughout the year, and ground-floor apartments with private gardens in gated developments with pools are a practical rental product. A tourist rental licence from the Junta de Andalucía is required before any commercial letting can take place. We can introduce you to local management agents who can provide rental projections based on comparable properties in La Quinta.
What is the step-by-step purchase process in Spain?
The first step is to obtain a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number), which is required for any property transaction. Once an offer is agreed, a reservation contract is signed and a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit, commonly 10% of the purchase price less the reservation amount, is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on the completion date, at which point ownership is formally transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed. Your solicitor will then register the title at the land registry.
