Frequently Asked Questions
What are the total purchase costs for this penthouse?
As a new-build, this property is subject to IVA at 10% rather than ITP, adding EUR 69,900 to the EUR 699,000 asking price. Notary fees typically run EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees EUR 400 to 800, and independent legal representation costs around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, roughly EUR 8,388. Budget approximately EUR 80,000 to EUR 85,000 in total purchase costs on top of the sale price.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is usually required. On EUR 699,000 that equates to a deposit of roughly EUR 210,000 to EUR 280,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the term and lender.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0 per month, though this figure should be verified with the developer before exchange. IBI (annual property tax) and basura (waste collection) figures have not yet been confirmed by the vendor. Your solicitor can request these from the local council prior to completion.
How can I arrange a viewing?
Viewings can be arranged in person at the El Higuerón development or conducted remotely via a live video call with one of our agents on site. To book either option, contact OceanHome directly by phone or through the enquiry form on this listing page.
What is the rental potential of this property?
El Higuerón is located within the Costa del Sol tourist zone, which benefits from high demand for short-term holiday lets, particularly between April and October. The proximity to Málaga Airport at 21 km and the coastal position approximately 2 km from the beach make this development attractive to seasonal renters. A local property management company can advise on licensing requirements and achievable rental income for the area.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number, known as an NIE, which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you have agreed on the price, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract, known as a contrato de arras, where typically 10% of the price is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on the completion date, when the title deed is signed and keys are handed over.
