Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking 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% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply. Both rates are set by the Autonomous Community of Andalucía. On top of taxes, allow approximately EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and around 1% plus VAT for a solicitor. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet Andalucía's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders generally finance up to 60–70% for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish banks range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, though rates vary by lender and personal circumstances. A Spanish mortgage broker can provide tailored quotes.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees are currently zero for this property. Annual IBI (council tax) and basura (waste collection) figures have not yet been confirmed and should be requested directly from the agent before exchange. The energy certificate is rated G.
How can I arrange a viewing?
Viewings can be arranged in person or by video call if you are not yet travelling to the Costa del Sol. Contact the OceanHome team to book a time that suits you, and a video walkthrough of all rooms and outdoor areas can be conducted remotely before you commit to a visit.
Is this villa suitable as a rental investment?
Whater Gardens sits within the Estepona municipality, which is an established tourist area on the Costa del Sol. Short-term holiday rentals require a Junta de Andalucía tourist licence, and rental income potential depends on occupancy rates and management costs. We recommend speaking with a local letting agent for realistic projections specific to this location and property type.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you have agreed the price, a reservation fee takes the property off the market while due diligence is completed. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras) in which a deposit, typically 10% of the purchase price, is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered.
