Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of the price?
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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees at around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the region's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and are worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers in Spain typically require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders usually finance up to 60–70% for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though you should obtain up-to-date quotes from lenders directly. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers familiar with this market.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently recorded as zero; buyers should verify this with the developer before exchange. IBI (annual property tax) and the basura (refuse collection) charge are not yet set for this new-build and should be requested from the developer. Budget for utilities and building insurance on top of these figures.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via video call for buyers who cannot travel immediately. We can walk through the show apartment or available CGI walkthroughs with you live, and follow up with a detailed written summary. In-person viewings can be arranged at a time to suit you.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
Nueva Atalaya's position between Estepona and Puerto Banús makes it attractive to both short-term holiday renters and longer-term tenants. A tourist rental licence is required for short-term letting in Andalucía, and we recommend speaking with a local property management company for current occupancy data and realistic income projections. We do not quote projected yields, as these depend on management, seasonality and market conditions.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
You will first need a Spanish NIE number (tax identification for foreigners), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once you agree on 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), at which point a further deposit — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The transaction completes before a notary, who registers the title in your name. We strongly recommend instructing an independent Spanish property lawyer throughout.
