Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this new-build penthouse in Carvajal?
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 — and it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-resident buyers financing of up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is generally required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender. A mortgage broker with experience in Spanish new-build transactions can help you compare options before reservation.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0 per month; buyers should confirm the full service charge schedule directly with the developer, as charges typically come into effect upon completion. IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse collection) figures are not yet available for this new-build development — the agent can request these from the developer or local authority on your behalf.
Can I view this penthouse remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing at a time that suits you, allowing you to walk through the property and the development's common areas with an agent on screen. In-person viewings at the Carvajal site are also available by appointment.
What is the rental potential for this penthouse?
Carvajal is a recognised tourist zone, and this development is 350 metres from the beach with Málaga Airport 20 minutes away. Those factors support demand for short-term holiday lets. To rent legally in Andalucía you will need a tourist licence (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos), which requires the property to meet specific habitability and registration standards. Your solicitor can advise on the application process before completion.
What does the purchase process look like?
First, obtain an NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) — a tax identification number required for any property purchase in Spain. Once you have agreed the price, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further stage payment is typically made. For new builds, subsequent stage payments are usually tied to construction milestones. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is paid and the title deed (escritura) is signed. Your solicitor carries out due diligence, reviews the developer's licence and bank guarantee, and registers the title at the land registry.
