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 at 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 — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers are typically required to put down a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Spanish lenders currently offer mortgage rates in the region of 3.5–4.5% for non-residents, though rates vary by lender and applicant profile. We can connect you with independent mortgage brokers experienced in cross-border purchases.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently recorded as nil; buyers should confirm the final charge with the developer before completion. The IBI (annual council tax) has not yet been assessed as this is a new-build property. There is no basura (refuse collection charge) on record at present. We recommend requesting written confirmation of all recurring charges from the developer.
How can I arrange a viewing?
Contact our team to schedule an in-person visit to the Arroyo Vaquero development. If you are based outside Spain, we can arrange a live video viewing at a time that suits you, walking you through the show unit and the common areas in real time.
What is the rental potential in this area?
Arroyo Vaquero lies within the Costa del Sol's active tourist rental zone, where demand runs across spring, summer and autumn. New-build apartments with communal facilities are consistently let on short-term platforms during peak season. We recommend consulting a local property manager for realistic occupancy forecasts and current nightly rate ranges before committing to a rental strategy.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained via a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation deposit takes the property off the market. A private purchase contract (arras) is then signed, typically with a further deposit of around 10% of the purchase price. The sale completes before a notary, at which point the remaining balance is paid and title transfers to you. The transaction is then registered at the Land Registry. We recommend instructing an independent Spanish solicitor to act on your behalf throughout.
