Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for 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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees of approximately 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 budget.
Can non-resident buyers obtain a mortgage on this property?
Spanish banks typically lend non-resident buyers up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%. A formal mortgage offer will depend on the lender's own valuation of the property.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently set at zero for this development. Annual IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed, as the property is a new build; this figure will be set by the local authority once the property is registered. Basura (refuse collection) charges have not yet been confirmed.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to travel to Estepona. Contact our team to arrange a live video walk-through or to request additional footage of the Las Mesas development, including communal areas and the terrace.
What is the rental potential of this property?
Las Mesas sits within the Estepona municipal area, which is an active tourist rental market on the Costa del Sol. New-build penthouses of this size attract both short-term holiday lets and longer-term rentals. A tourist rental licence would be required for short-term letting; your solicitor can advise on current Andalucía licensing requirements.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), under which a further deposit — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance and all taxes are settled and the title deed (escritura) is signed.
