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 IVA and AJD are set by the autonomous region of Andalucía. On top of tax, budget for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal fees of around 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 for this property?
Non-resident buyers can typically obtain a Spanish mortgage, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Mortgage interest rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, depending on the lender, product type, and your financial profile. We recommend obtaining a mortgage agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this villa are nil. IBI (annual council tax) and basura (refuse collection charge) figures have not yet been confirmed for this new-build property; please ask the agent for the latest available estimates before proceeding. Utility connections and any applicable urbanisation maintenance costs should also be confirmed with the developer.
How can I arrange a viewing?
Viewings can be arranged in person at a time to suit you. If you are based outside Spain or prefer a preliminary look before travelling, we can organise a live video viewing with one of our agents on site. Contact us to confirm your preferred date and format.
Does this property have rental potential?
La Quinta and the wider Benahavis area attract a consistent flow of international visitors, particularly golfers and families seeking longer-term rental accommodation. Villas of this size and specification in the La Quinta area are in demand for both short-term holiday lets and medium-term rentals. A tourist licence is required for short-term letting in Andalucía; your legal adviser can confirm current licensing requirements and any restrictions that apply to this plot.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all Spanish property transactions. Once your offer is agreed, a reservation contract is signed and a reservation deposit 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 — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes, and fees are settled and title transfers to the buyer. Your solicitor should carry out full due diligence on the new-build licence, developer guarantees, and building insurance before you sign anything.
