Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this property?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2%. ITP does not apply. Notary fees typically run between EUR 600 and EUR 1,200, land registry fees between EUR 400 and EUR 800, and legal fees are generally 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) — worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Non-resident buyers can typically access mortgage financing in Spain, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Current variable and fixed rates in Spain are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile. We recommend consulting a mortgage broker who specialises in Spanish property finance.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed as not applicable for this development. The annual IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed, as is standard for new builds prior to first occupation. Basura (refuse collection) charges are also not yet available. Once the property is registered and occupied, your solicitor can obtain confirmed figures from the local council.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel immediately. Our agents can conduct a live video call walkthrough of the apartment and the development's communal areas, including the pool. Contact us to arrange a time that suits you, and we can follow up with any additional images or technical documentation you need.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Las Mesas is located within Estepona's tourist zone on the Costa del Sol, where short-term rental demand is consistent across most of the year. To let legally on a short-term basis, you must obtain a Junta de Andalucía tourist rental licence. Conditions and processing times can change, so we recommend speaking to a local solicitor before purchasing with rental income in mind.
What is the purchase process for this property?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained via a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is typically 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 usually paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the title deeds are signed. Your solicitor will register the deed with the Land Registry on your behalf.
