Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
As a new-build, this penthouse is subject to IVA at 10% rather than resale transfer tax. On EUR 1,325,000 that comes to EUR 132,500. Add notary fees of approximately EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to 800, and independent legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (roughly EUR 13,250 plus VAT). Total additional costs are typically 12 to 14% of the price.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can generally obtain a Spanish mortgage, though lenders typically require a deposit of 30 to 40% of the purchase price. On EUR 1,325,000 that means EUR 397,500 to 530,000 from your own funds. Current variable and fixed rates are broadly in the 3.5 to 4.5% range, though your personal rate will depend on your financial profile and chosen lender. We can refer you to a specialist mortgage broker.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently listed as EUR 0 per year. As this is a new-build development, this figure may be a pre-completion placeholder; please confirm the projected community fee with the developer before signing any contract. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed for this property. You should also allow for utility standing charges and contents insurance.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp, FaceTime, or Zoom for buyers who cannot travel immediately. Our agents can walk through the show unit or CGI walkthrough footage with you in real time and answer questions live. In-person viewings in Nueva Atalaya can be arranged at short notice.
What is the rental potential of a penthouse in Nueva Atalaya, Estepona?
Nueva Atalaya is within the Costa del Sol tourist zone, so short-term holiday lettings are possible subject to obtaining a Junta de Andalucía tourist licence (Registro de Turismo de Andalucía). Demand for top-floor properties with private solariums is consistently strong during the summer season. We recommend speaking to a local property management company for realistic occupancy and nightly rate projections specific to this development.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. The process then typically moves through a reservation agreement with a holding deposit, a private purchase contract or arras agreement where a larger deposit is paid (usually 10%), and finally completion before a notary, at which point the balance and all taxes are settled. For new-builds, stage payments during construction are common and should be backed by bank guarantees; your independent solicitor will verify these are in place.
