Frequently Asked Questions
What are the total purchase costs for this apartment?
As a new-build property in Andalusia, VAT (IVA) at 10% applies, which adds EUR 25,900 to the EUR 259,000 price. You should also budget for notary fees of roughly EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to 800, and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. In total, allow for around 12 to 14% on top of the asking price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is generally required. On EUR 259,000 that equates to roughly EUR 77,700 to EUR 103,600. Variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% AER, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed as nil for this development. IBI (annual council tax) has not yet been assessed; once the property is registered with the catastro, IBI will be calculated by Estepona Town Hall based on the rateable value. No basura (waste collection) figure has been provided at this stage.
Can I arrange a viewing?
Yes. In-person viewings can be booked through OceanHome. If you are based outside Spain or prefer a preliminary look, a live video viewing is also available on request. Contact us to arrange a time that suits you.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Valle Romano Golf is within the Estepona municipality, which attracts both long-term residents and golf tourists. New-build apartments in this area can be suitable for holiday lets subject to obtaining a tourist licence from the Junta de Andalucía. Rental demand tends to be strongest during the spring and summer months, with some year-round interest from golf visitors. We recommend speaking to a local letting agent for current market rates before committing.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for all property purchases in Spain. Once you have agreed the price, a reservation contract and fee is typically signed to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), under which a further deposit of around 10% is paid. The sale is then completed before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to handle due diligence throughout.
