Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of 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 in Spain typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders generally finance up to 60–70% for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates broadly range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though your individual rate will depend on your lender and financial profile. We recommend obtaining an agreement in principle before committing to a reservation.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Estimated community fees are EUR 120 per month, covering shared building maintenance, the lift, and communal areas. Estimated annual IBI (council tax) is EUR 950. Please note these figures are estimated at the time of listing. Utility costs for a 125 m2 apartment with air conditioning will vary by usage.
Can I view this apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you, including walkthroughs of the show unit and the surrounding neighbourhood. In-person viewings can be arranged with 48 hours' notice. Contact us to book either option.
What is the rental potential of a new-build in Centro, Fuengirola?
Centro is one of Fuengirola's most active short-let areas due to its walkable distance to the beach, the promenade, shops, and transport links. New-build apartments with air conditioning and a terrace attract both holiday renters and medium-term tenants. A tourist licence (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos) is required for short-term letting in Andalucía; we can connect you with a local lettings manager for realistic occupancy and income estimates based on current market data.
What is the buying process for this property?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once your offer is accepted, a reservation agreement is signed and a reservation deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to secure the property. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras), at which point around 10% of the purchase price is normally paid. The balance is settled at the notary on completion, when the deeds (escritura) are signed and ownership transfers to you.
