Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this property?
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. In addition, budget for 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. 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 — and it is worth checking these before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically access Spanish mortgages of up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is generally required. Interest rates on Spanish mortgages currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and product. We can connect you with independent mortgage brokers who specialise in the Costa del Sol market.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees are currently nil for this development. The annual IBI (municipal property tax) figure has not yet been confirmed for this property and should be confirmed with the agent before exchange. Basura (refuse collection) charges are also unconfirmed at this stage.
Can I view the property remotely before visiting in person?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel immediately. A member of our team can conduct a live video walkthrough of the unit and the development's communal areas, including the pool and solarium. In-person viewings in El Higuerón can be arranged at short notice.
Is this property suitable as a holiday rental investment?
El Higuerón is located within the Fuengirola municipal area, which is a recognised tourist destination on the Costa del Sol. New-build properties in this neighbourhood attract both long-term residents and short-term visitors. A tourist rental licence would be required for short-stay letting; the agent can advise on the current licensing process in Fuengirola. We do not quote yield projections, but the area's established tourist infrastructure supports demand.
What are the key steps in the purchase process?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is the tax identification number required for property purchases in Spain. Once you agree on terms, a reservation fee is typically paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes are settled. We recommend instructing an independent solicitor before signing any documentation.
