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% 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 — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow 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 range of 3.5–4.5%, though individual lender terms will vary. We can connect you with a specialist mortgage broker familiar with cross-border purchases.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently registered at zero for this development, though this may be updated once the building is fully operational. The annual IBI (local property tax) figure has not yet been confirmed by the local authority. Utility costs will depend on usage; the apartment holds an energy rating of G.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. In addition to in-person viewings, we offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call so you can assess the property and the development before travelling. Please contact us to schedule either option at a time that suits you.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Atalaya's location between Estepona and Marbella means consistent demand from both short-term holiday visitors and longer-term residents. Short-term rentals in Andalucía require a tourist licence from the regional authority, and rules on letting are set at the autonomous community level. We recommend speaking with a local property manager for realistic occupancy and income projections specific to this development.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE number (tax identification number for foreigners), which can be obtained through a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once you are ready to proceed, a reservation agreement is signed and a deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), where a further deposit is typically paid. Completion takes place before a notary, who registers the transaction. Having an independent Spanish solicitor review all documentation before you sign is strongly recommended.
