Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 4,950,000 asking price?
As a new build, VAT (IVA) applies at 10%, which amounts to EUR 495,000. Additional costs include notary fees of EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to 800, and independent legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (around EUR 59,400 including VAT). Total acquisition costs are typically 11 to 13% above the purchase price.
Can non-resident buyers obtain a mortgage for this property?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price for non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is required. On EUR 4,950,000 that equates to EUR 1,485,000 to EUR 1,980,000 in equity. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain generally range from 3.5% to 4.5% per annum, subject to individual circumstances and lender criteria.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees are listed at EUR 0 per year. IBI (annual property tax) and basura (refuse collection charge) figures are not yet available for this new build and should be confirmed with the agent before exchange. Utility connections, maintenance, and gardening costs will also apply given the 1,403m2 plot.
Is it possible to view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a video viewing via video call so you can assess the villa and its setting before committing to travel. We can also provide additional photos, developer plans, and specification sheets on request. In-person viewings in Los Flamingos can be scheduled around your availability.
What is the rental potential in Los Flamingos, Benahavis?
Los Flamingos is a recognised tourist urbanisation with proximity to golf, Puerto Banús, and Marbella's amenities, which supports demand for short-term holiday lets. Owners wishing to rent must obtain a Junta de Andalucía tourist rental licence. Your solicitor can advise on the licensing process and any community rules that may apply to short-term letting within the urbanisation.
How does the purchase process work in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once agreed, a reservation contract is signed and a deposit of around EUR 6,000 to 10,000 is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), typically with 10% of the price paid at that stage. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance and all taxes are settled and title passes to the buyer.
