Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new-build property in Andalusia, VAT (IVA) applies at 10%, which amounts to EUR 169,059 on the asking price of EUR 1,690,590. Additional costs include notary fees of 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 20,287 including VAT). Total additional costs typically fall between EUR 190,000 and EUR 192,000.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically access mortgages of up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price from Spanish lenders, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is usually required. On EUR 1,690,590 that equates to a minimum deposit of around EUR 507,177 to EUR 676,236, excluding purchase costs. Current variable and fixed rates in Spain range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees for this property are currently stated as zero, though this may change once the development is fully established. IBI (annual local property tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build and will be set by the local authority after completion. Utility costs and any basura (rubbish collection) charges would also apply once the property is occupied.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome offers video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Estepona immediately. A member of our team can walk you through the development and the El Velerín area via a live video call. In-person viewings can also be arranged by contacting our office directly.
What is the rental potential of this apartment?
El Velerín and the wider western Estepona area attract both long-term residential tenants and short-term holiday visitors, given the proximity to the coast and Málaga Airport. A five-bedroom property of this size and specification is well suited to the premium short-term rental market. Licensing requirements apply for tourist lets in Andalusia; we recommend consulting a local lawyer before purchasing with rental income in mind.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your legal representative can obtain on your behalf. Once you have identified the property, a reservation agreement is signed and a holding deposit paid, typically EUR 3,000 to EUR 10,000. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras), at which point around 10% of the purchase price is paid. The remaining balance is settled at the notary on completion, when the title deeds are signed and the property is formally transferred.
