Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this apartment?
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 region. ITP does not apply. On top of taxes, budget for 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 finalise your budget.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents mortgages covering up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is generally required. Current variable and fixed rates for non-resident mortgages range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, depending on the lender and the applicant's financial profile. We recommend obtaining an agreement in principle before reserving.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this development are currently set at zero. Annual IBI (council tax) figures have not yet been confirmed for this new-build property; the agent can provide an estimate once the catastral reference is issued. Basura (rubbish collection) charges are also to be confirmed and should be factored into your annual budget.
Can I view the apartment remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel to Fuengirola immediately. We can also arrange an in-person visit at a time that suits you. Contact the office to book either option.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Fuengirola and La Calerita in particular have an active short-term holiday rental market, supported by strong visitor numbers along the Costa del Sol. A property of 191 m2 with three bedrooms and a communal pool is well suited to family holiday lets. For accurate rental projections and licensing requirements under Andalucía's tourist rental regulations, we recommend speaking with a local letting agent before purchase.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point a further deposit — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The balance is settled at completion before a notary, who registers the title in your name at the land registry. Using an independent solicitor throughout is strongly advised.
