Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond 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%, set by the Andalucían regional government. ITP does not apply. You should also allow for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of 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 the region's conditions — for example, age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and it is worth checking these before you finalise your budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender. An independent mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property can help you compare options.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently recorded as zero; buyers should verify the final monthly charge with the developer before contracts are signed, as this figure may change once the development is handed over and the owners' community is established. IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse collection) charges have not yet been set for this new-build property. Your solicitor can advise on likely ranges once the property is registered with the local authority.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or Zoom for buyers who cannot travel to Benalmádena immediately. A video call allows you to see the development, the apartment layout, and the communal areas in real time, with an agent on hand to answer questions. In-person viewings can be arranged once you are ready to visit.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
Cortijo Torrequebrada sits within the Benalmádena municipality, which is a recognised tourist area on the Costa del Sol. Benalmádena attracts visitors year-round, with demand driven by the beach, the marina at Puerto Marina, and good transport links. A holiday rental licence would be required for short-term lettings; your solicitor can advise on the application process and current municipal regulations.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is the tax identification number required for all property transactions in Spain. Once you have agreed to proceed, a reservation agreement is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) at which a further stage payment is typically made. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is paid and the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered.
