Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for 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 — and it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically obtain a Spanish mortgage, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Current variable and fixed rates on the Spanish market sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile. We recommend obtaining an agreement in principle before reserving.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are currently recorded at zero; buyers should confirm the final figure with the developer before completion. The annual IBI (council tax) figure is not yet available for this new-build unit. Basura (waste collection) charges have not been provided. We recommend requesting a full breakdown of projected service charges from the developer.
How do I arrange a viewing?
Contact the OceanHome team to schedule an in-person visit to the development in Arroyo Enmedio. If you are based outside Spain or prefer a remote option, we can also arrange a live video viewing so you can see the property and ask questions in real time.
Does this penthouse have rental potential?
Estepona and the surrounding Costa del Sol coastline attract consistent demand from holidaymakers, and properties in this area can be suitable for short-term or seasonal letting. Rental licensing requirements in Andalucía apply to tourist lets, and occupancy levels vary by season and management approach. We recommend speaking to a local rental agency for realistic projections before purchase.
What does the purchase process look like in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can help you obtain. Once you have agreed on terms, a reservation deposit secures the property while due diligence is carried out. A private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) is then signed, with a further deposit paid at that stage. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed. Instructing an independent Spanish solicitor from the outset is strongly advised.
