Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of 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% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and independent legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet Andalucía's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and it is worth checking these before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer in Spain?
Non-resident buyers can generally borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is typically required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile. We can introduce you to a Spanish mortgage broker at no obligation.
What are the ongoing running costs for this townhouse?
Community fees are currently nil. The annual IBI (council tax) figure has not yet been set for this new-build; the amount will be confirmed by the local authority once the property is registered. There is no basura (waste collection) figure available at this stage. Contact the agent for the latest information as these figures are confirmed.
How do I arrange a viewing?
You can book an in-person viewing through our Fuengirola office at a time that suits you. If you are based outside Spain, we also offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call, during which an agent walks through the property and the development in real time. Contact us to arrange either option.
Does this property have rental potential?
El Higuerón is in a tourist-licensed area of Fuengirola, and properties with private pools in gated developments here attract consistent short-term rental interest, particularly from visitors arriving through Málaga Airport. The 20-minute airport transfer time is a practical advantage. We recommend taking independent advice on rental yields and licensing requirements before purchase, as we do not quote invented yield figures.
What are the main steps in the Spanish purchase process?
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. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on the completion date, when title transfers to you. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before signing anything.
