Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this villa?
As a new-build property in Andalusia, IVA applies at 10% rather than ITP. On the asking price of EUR 1,625,000 that equates to EUR 162,500 in VAT. You should also budget for notary fees of EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (around EUR 16,250 before VAT).
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. On EUR 1,625,000 that represents a minimum deposit of approximately EUR 487,500. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though this varies by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build; the figure will be set by the local authority once the property is registered. Utility connection costs and basura (refuse collection) charges should also be factored in and confirmed with the agent.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a video viewing if you are unable to visit in person. Remote viewings are conducted live via video call so you can ask questions in real time. In-person viewings at El Higuerón can be arranged at a time to suit you.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
El Higuerón is within the Fuengirola municipality on the Costa del Sol, a tourist area with demand for short-term holiday lets. New-build villas at this price point in the area attract interest from both holiday and longer-term renters. A tourist rental licence (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos) from the Junta de Andalucía is required before letting the property. Contact the agent for current market rental data.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, obtain a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which is required for any property purchase. Once you agree a price, a reservation contract and fee (typically EUR 6,000–10,000) takes the property off the market. A private purchase contract (arras) follows, usually with 10% of the price paid at that stage. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is paid and keys are handed over. Using an independent Spanish solicitor throughout the process is strongly advised.
