About Centro, Fuengirola
Fuengirola is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
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%, set by the Autonomous Community of Andalucía. ITP does not apply to new builds. You should also allow for notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically 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 — and it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain 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 from Spanish lenders generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though your personal rate will depend on your financial profile and chosen lender. We recommend taking independent financial advice before applying.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this apartment are currently set at nil. The annual IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed, as this is a new-build property. Basura (rubbish collection) charges have also not yet been confirmed. We recommend asking your solicitor to verify these figures and any future community fee structure before exchange.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. In addition to in-person viewings, we can arrange a live video viewing so you can tour the apartment and development with one of our agents in real time. Contact us to book either option at a time that suits you.
Is there rental potential for this apartment?
Fuengirola is within a designated tourist licence zone, which means owners may apply to register the property for short-term holiday letting. Demand in this coastal area tends to be strongest from April through October, with additional holiday periods in winter from northern European visitors. We do not quote yield figures, but our team can connect you with local rental management specialists for an honest assessment.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a formal private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) at which a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on the completion date, at which point ownership transfers to you. For a new build, completion is tied to the construction programme, and your solicitor should review the developer's delivery timeline and bank guarantees before you commit.
