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% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically 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) — worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders generally offer non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is typically required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish banks broadly range between 3.5% and 4.5%, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender. A mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property can help compare options before you commit.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently set at zero for this development. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build and will be confirmed once the property is registered with the local catastro. There is no basura (waste collection) figure available at this stage. Buyers should factor in utility connection and supply costs from completion.
Can I arrange a viewing, and is a video option available?
Yes. In-person viewings can be arranged through our OceanHome team at a time that suits you. If you are based outside Spain or prefer a remote option before travelling, we can also organise a live video viewing of the development and any show units available.
Is this property suitable for rental investment?
Los Flamingos and the wider Golf Valley area generate consistent rental demand from golf visitors, particularly between spring and autumn. Short-term tourist rentals in Andalucía require a regional licence (VFT), which must be obtained before any rentals begin. Longer-term annual lets are not subject to the same licensing requirements. Rental income potential should be discussed with a local agent familiar with current occupancy levels in this urbanisation.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all property transactions in Spain. Once you are ready to proceed, a reservation agreement is signed and a deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras or similar), at which point a further staged payment is typically made. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, who registers the title in your name. We recommend appointing an independent solicitor to act on your behalf throughout.
