Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new build in Andalusia, VAT (IVA) applies at 10%, which equals EUR 76,500 on the asking price of EUR 765,000. Additional costs include stamp duty (AJD) at 1.2% (approximately EUR 9,180), notary fees of EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to 800, and legal fees of roughly 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Total purchase costs typically add 13 to 15% on top of the headline price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is generally required. On EUR 765,000, that equates to a deposit of roughly EUR 229,500 to EUR 306,000. Variable and fixed rates currently sit in the 3.5 to 4.5% range, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are listed as EUR 0 per month; buyers should verify this directly with the developer before contracts are signed. No IBI (annual property tax) figure is available yet as the property is a new build and the IBI will be assessed once the building is registered. Rubbish collection charges have not been provided and should be confirmed with the local authority.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. In addition to in-person viewings, OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing of the development and show home so you can assess the property from wherever you are. Contact us to book a time that suits you.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
Selwo and the broader Estepona area attract visitors year-round due to proximity to golf, beaches, and Marbella. Short-term holiday rentals in Andalusia require a Vivienda con Fines Turísticos licence from the Junta de Andalucía. Buyers interested in the rental market should factor in licensing requirements and management costs when assessing the investment case.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once terms are agreed, a reservation fee (typically EUR 3,000 to 10,000) takes the property off the market. A private purchase contract follows, at which point around 10% of the price is paid. The remaining balance is settled at the notary on completion, when ownership transfers and is registered in the Land Registry.
