Frequently Asked Questions

What purchase costs should I allow 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%. ITP does not apply. On top of those taxes, budget roughly EUR 600–1,200 for the notary, EUR 400–800 for the property registry, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for a solicitor. 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 I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price from a Spanish lender, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain broadly range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though individual offers depend on the lender, your income profile, and the currency of your earnings. A Spanish mortgage broker or your solicitor can obtain indicative offers before you proceed.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently listed as nil for this development. The annual IBI (local property tax) figure has not yet been confirmed for this unit; the agent can provide an estimate once the rateable value is assessed. A separate basura (waste collection) charge may also apply annually at rates set by the local municipality.
Can I view this apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or your preferred platform, giving you a guided walkthrough of the unit, the communal areas, and the surrounding El Higuerón neighbourhood. This is a practical first step if you are based outside Spain or wish to shortlist before visiting in person.
Is there rental potential in El Higuerón?
El Higuerón is a recognised tourist area on the Costa del Sol with strong visitor demand throughout the year, supported by the proximity of Málaga Airport at roughly 20 minutes by car and the resort facilities within the development. Short-term holiday lets require a regional tourist licence in Andalucía, and the community rules of the development should be checked before assuming rental use is permitted. The agent can advise on current licensing requirements and occupancy patterns in the area.
What is the buying process in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you agree on terms, a reservation contract is typically signed alongside a holding deposit to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), under which a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid, with the remainder due at completion before a notary. Your solicitor will carry out due diligence on the title, planning status, and any charges on the property before you reach that stage.
