Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
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. In addition, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and approximately 1% plus VAT for a solicitor. 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 get a mortgage on this property?
Non-resident buyers typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Spanish lenders currently offer variable and fixed rates broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though this varies by lender and applicant profile. We can put you in touch with independent mortgage brokers experienced with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs?
IBI (annual property tax) and basura (waste collection charge) figures are not yet assigned for this new-build property; the developer can advise on anticipated amounts once the catastro reference is registered. Community fees are currently listed at nil, but buyers should confirm the final figure with the developer before exchange.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to La Quinta in person, including live video calls with an agent on site. Contact us to schedule either an in-person or remote viewing at a time that suits you.
What is the rental potential for this penthouse?
La Quinta and the wider Benahavis municipality attract both long-term residents and short-term visitors drawn to the nearby golf courses and proximity to Marbella. Short-term holiday lets require a tourist licence from the Junta de Andalucía. We recommend speaking with a local property manager for realistic occupancy and rate expectations before factoring rental income into your purchase decision.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate in your home country or at a police station in Spain. Once you have agreed to proceed, 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 stage payment is typically made. The sale completes before a Spanish notary, who registers the transfer with the land registry. Using an independent solicitor throughout is strongly advised.
