Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this property?
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 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 — so it is worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage for this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents a loan-to-value of 60–70%, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is generally required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish banks are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender. A mortgage broker with Spanish market experience can help you compare options before you commit.
What are the estimated running costs?
Estimated community fees are EUR 315 per month, covering maintenance of communal areas including the pool, gymnasium and rooftop solarium. Estimated annual IBI (council tax) is EUR 3,000. Both figures are estimates and may be subject to change. Utility costs will depend on usage; underfloor heating and home automation systems can assist with energy management.
Can I view this property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to travel to Carvajal at short notice. These are conducted live via video call so you can ask questions in real time and see any part of the property on request. Contact us to arrange a convenient time, and we can follow up with a floor plan and additional materials.
What is the rental potential in Carvajal, Fuengirola?
Carvajal's position 350 metres from the beach and its direct rail link to Málaga make it a popular location for holiday rentals. Fuengirola falls within a high-demand coastal tourist zone, and properties of this size and specification attract both short-term summer lets and longer-term rental interest. A local rental management company can provide specific occupancy and rate data for the area before you commit.
What is the purchase process for buyers in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation deposit (typically EUR 6,000–10,000) removes the property from the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point roughly 10% of the purchase price is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on the completion date, when title transfers to you. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to carry out due diligence throughout.
