Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this apartment?
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. In addition, budget for notary fees of roughly EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of approximately 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 non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, though rates vary by lender, term and applicant profile. A mortgage broker familiar with non-resident applications can help identify the most suitable product.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed at zero. The annual IBI (council tax) figure has not yet been confirmed for this development. A refuse collection charge (basura) will also apply once set by the local authority. Your solicitor can request the latest confirmed figures from the developer before exchange.
Can I view the apartment remotely?
Yes. Video viewings can be arranged via WhatsApp or a video call platform at a time that suits you. For in-person visits, the development is accessible via the N-340 and is approximately 20 minutes from Málaga AGP airport. Contact the OceanHome team to schedule either option.
Is this apartment suitable as a holiday rental investment?
Carvajal's coastal location 350 metres from Playa de Carvajal and 20 minutes from Málaga AGP makes it well placed for short-term rental demand, particularly in summer. Any holiday letting requires a tourist licence from the Junta de Andalucía. We do not quote estimated yield percentages, but our team can introduce you to local rental management agencies who can provide market data.
What are the key steps in the purchase process?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once agreed, a reservation fee secures the property and takes it off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit is typically paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is paid and keys are handed over. Appointing an independent solicitor before making any payment is strongly recommended.
