Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of the EUR 1,045,000 price?
As a new build in Malaga province, you pay IVA at 10% (EUR 104,500) rather than transfer tax. Additional costs include notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, Land Registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (approximately EUR 12,540 including VAT at 21%). Total purchase costs are typically 12–14% on top of the agreed price.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers can generally borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is required. On EUR 1,045,000 that equates to a minimum deposit of approximately EUR 313,500–418,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from roughly 3.5% to 4.5% annually, though individual lender terms will vary. We can connect you with a registered mortgage broker.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently recorded as EUR 0 per month; buyers should confirm whether service charges will be set once the development is handed over. The annual IBI (council tax) figure is not yet available and should be confirmed with the agent and local town hall prior to completion. Basura (refuse collection) charges are also not yet confirmed.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you. We can walk through the property in real time and answer questions as we go. In-person viewings are also available by appointment.
Is this penthouse suitable as a holiday rental investment?
La Calerita falls within the Fuengirola tourist zone, and an 8th-floor, 4-bedroom penthouse of 215 m2 is a property type with demand during the summer season. However, Andalusia regulates holiday lets through a regional licence (DRTA) and some developments impose community restrictions on short-term rentals. Buyers should verify the specific licence eligibility and any community rules before purchasing with a rental strategy in mind.
What does the purchase process look like step by step?
First, you will need an NIE (foreigner identification number), which can be obtained in Spain or via a Spanish consulate in your home country. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where 10% of the price is exchanged. Finally, the sale is completed before a Spanish notary, who registers the transfer with the Land Registry. We recommend appointing an independent lawyer throughout.
