Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this new-build apartment?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2%, set by the Autonomous Community of Andalucía. ITP does not apply to new-build transactions. Additional costs typically include notary fees (EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (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) — worth checking before you 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 generally fall in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though individual lender offers vary. We can connect you with a broker who works with international buyers if needed.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently recorded at zero for this development. IBI (local property tax) and basura (waste collection) figures are not yet available, as this is a new-build property; these will be confirmed once the property is registered with the local authority. We will provide updated figures as soon as they are issued.
Can I view this apartment remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Estepona immediately. A member of our team will walk through the apartment and the development with you via a live video call, covering the solarium, communal pool, parking level, and surrounding area. Contact us to arrange a time that works for you.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Las Mesas sits within the Estepona municipality, which is an established short-term rental market on the Costa del Sol. The top-floor position with a private solarium is a practical draw for holiday renters. A tourist rental licence (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos) is required in Andalucía before letting on platforms such as Airbnb. We recommend speaking to a local property manager to assess realistic occupancy and rates before committing.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate in your home country or at a police station in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. The sale is completed before a Spanish notary, who registers the title deed. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to act on your behalf throughout.
