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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and solicitor fees at 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 — so it is 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, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents in Spain range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, depending on the lender and your financial profile. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers with experience in cross-border purchases.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees for this development have not yet been confirmed by the developer. IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse collection) figures are not available prior to the property receiving its first rateable assessment — your solicitor can request an estimate from the local Ayuntamiento. We will update this information as soon as the developer provides the final community fee schedule.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp, FaceTime, or Zoom at a time that suits you. Our agent in Carvajal can walk through the show unit or the actual plot and surrounding communal areas on a live call. In-person viewings in Fuengirola can usually be arranged within a few days' notice.
What is the rental potential of a property in Carvajal?
Carvajal is a popular coastal area within the Fuengirola municipality, with demand for short-term holiday lets running from spring through to October and a steady market for longer-term rentals year-round. The proximity to Playa de Carvajal, the Cercanías rail link, and Málaga Airport supports occupancy from both domestic and international visitors. A tourist rental licence (VFT) is required to let on short-term platforms; your solicitor can advise on the application process through the Junta de Andalucía.
What does the purchase process look like from offer to completion?
Once your offer is accepted, the first step is obtaining an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for any property transaction in Spain. A reservation deposit is then paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. For a new build, staged payments may be required during construction. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes, and fees are settled and the title deed (escritura) is signed.
