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%. ITP does not apply. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet this region's conditions (for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence) — worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price from Spanish lenders, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though your lender's offer will depend on your financial profile and the bank's criteria at the time of application.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are estimated at 120 EUR per month, covering maintenance of the communal pool, gymnasium, gardens, solarium, and security services. Annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at 1,630 EUR. Both figures are estimates at this stage of the development. Utility costs will depend on usage; underfloor heating and home automation can help manage consumption.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome offers video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Fuengirola in person. A member of our team will walk through the apartment and communal areas live via video call at a time that suits you. In-person viewings can also be arranged with advance notice.
Is this property suitable for short-term rental?
Carvajal sits within the Fuengirola tourist zone, and properties here are in consistent demand for short-stay lets, particularly from May to October. The private terrace pool, proximity to Playa de Carvajal, and communal facilities make this apartment attractive to holiday renters. You will need to register for a tourist rental licence with the Junta de Andalucía before letting. We recommend speaking with a local rental manager for current occupancy and rate guidance specific to this area.
What steps are involved in buying a new-build property in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your lawyer can obtain on your behalf. Once you agree to proceed, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) where a further deposit, typically 10%, is paid. Stage payments may apply during construction. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is paid, taxes are settled, and the title deed (escritura) is signed. The property is then registered in your name at the land registry.
