Description

At 204 m2, this new-build 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom penthouse is the largest available unit on Benalmádena's front beach line, priced at EUR 1,145,000.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new build, you pay IVA (VAT) at 10% rather than transfer tax, which on EUR 1,145,000 amounts to EUR 114,500. Add notary fees of roughly EUR 600 to EUR 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to EUR 800, and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (around EUR 13,790 including VAT at 21%). Total additional costs are typically 12 to 13% of the price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks generally lend up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is required. On EUR 1,145,000 that represents EUR 343,500 to EUR 458,000. Variable and fixed mortgage rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and your financial profile. A mortgage broker familiar with the Spanish market can compare options.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are listed at EUR 0 at the time of listing. Buyers should confirm the final figure directly with the developer before signing any contract. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build unit and will be set by the local authority after the property is registered. The energy rating is G, so utility bills are likely to be higher than for a more efficient property of comparable size.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment, allowing you to take a live guided tour of the property and the development via video call. If you prefer an in-person visit, our local team in Benalmádena can arrange access directly with the developer. Contact us to book either option.
What is the rental potential on the Costa del Sol?
Benalmádena is an active short-term rental market, particularly along the front beach line, and demand from both holiday visitors and longer-term tenants remains consistent year-round due to the airport proximity. In Andalusia, a tourist rental licence (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos) is required for short-term lets and registration with the Junta de Andalucía is mandatory. Buyers should seek independent legal advice on obtaining a licence for a new-build unit and on applicable income tax for non-residents.
What steps are involved in buying a property in Spain?
First, obtain a NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) from a Spanish consulate or in Spain with a solicitor's help. Second, pay a reservation fee (typically EUR 3,000 to EUR 10,000) to take the property off the market. Third, sign a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) and pay 10% of the price. Fourth, your lawyer carries out due diligence on the new-build licence, developer guarantees, and building insurance. Finally, sign the public deed (escritura) before a notary, pay the balance, and register the title at the land registry.
