Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this new-build townhouse?
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. In addition, budget for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal fees typically around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the autonomous 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 on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can generally borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is typically required. Mortgage interest rates for non-residents currently sit broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though the exact rate will depend on your financial profile and chosen lender. We can connect you with independent mortgage brokers with experience in the Costa del Sol market.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently recorded as EUR 0 per month; please confirm this figure with the agent before exchange as the development may not yet have set its full service charge schedule. The annual IBI (local property tax) figure is not yet confirmed for this new-build and should be requested from the agent. The basura (rubbish collection) charge is also not yet confirmed.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel to Fuengirola immediately. Our agents can walk you through the showhouse or completed units and share additional photography or development plans. In-person viewings can be arranged with advance notice.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
El Higuerón is within a tourist area of Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol, and new-build properties here have been let as short-term holiday rentals subject to obtaining the relevant Junta de Andalucía tourist licence. Demand from holidaymakers is consistent along this stretch of coast. We recommend speaking to a local property manager to get a realistic assessment of occupancy and rates before committing.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, obtain a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which is required for any property transaction. You will then typically pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) where around 10% of the price is paid and both parties are contractually bound. The balance is paid at the notary on the date of completion, when the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to carry out due diligence on the developer and title throughout.
