Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 1,300,000 asking price?
As a new-build property, VAT (IVA) applies at 10%, which amounts to EUR 130,000. You will also pay stamp duty (AJD) at around 1.5% (EUR 19,500), notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal fees typically around 1% plus VAT (approximately EUR 13,000). Total purchase costs are typically in the region of EUR 163,000–165,000 on top of the purchase price.
Can I get a mortgage in Spain as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is required. On EUR 1,300,000 that equates to a minimum deposit of roughly EUR 390,000–520,000, before purchase costs. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers with experience in non-resident lending.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees are currently listed as EUR 0 per month; buyers should verify this figure directly with the developer before signing any contracts. No IBI (annual property tax) figure has been provided for this new build — the IBI will be assessed once the property is registered with the catastro. Utility costs will depend on usage. The energy rating is G.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to travel at short notice. A member of our team can conduct a live video tour of the property or share recorded walkthrough footage. Contact us to arrange a suitable time.
Does this villa have rental potential?
El Higuerón is a recognised tourist area within the Costa del Sol, and properties here can be eligible for a tourist rental licence (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos) issued by the Junta de Andalucía. Demand for short-term rentals in the area is consistent across summer months, with some shoulder-season activity as well. We recommend seeking independent legal advice before purchasing with a rental strategy in mind, as licence availability depends on local planning classifications.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in Spain with the assistance of a solicitor. Once you agree on the purchase, a reservation deposit (typically EUR 3,000–10,000) secures the property. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where a further deposit — usually 10% of the price — is paid. The balance is paid at the notary on the day of completion, when title transfers to the buyer. Using an independent Spanish solicitor throughout is strongly advised.
