Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this villa?
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 (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically 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 this 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 non-resident buyers obtain a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders generally offer non-residents up to 60–70% loan-to-value, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is typically required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents in Spain range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, though rates vary by lender and applicant profile. We recommend obtaining an agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this villa are listed as nil. IBI (annual council tax) and basura (refuse collection) figures have not yet been confirmed for this new-build; the agent can provide estimates or refer you to the developer's documentation once available. As an owner, you should also account for buildings insurance and utility standing charges.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel immediately, including live walkthroughs via video call and pre-recorded footage of the development and show unit where available. In-person viewings can be arranged at times to suit you; please contact the agent to confirm current site access.
What is the rental potential for a villa in El Higuerón?
El Higuerón is an established area for both short-term tourist rentals and longer executive lets, given its proximity to Málaga airport (20 minutes) and the Reserva del Higuerón resort facilities. Four-bedroom villas of this size attract demand from corporate relocations and extended family holidays. A Spanish tourist rental licence (Junta de Andalucía registration) is required for short-term letting; the agent can advise on the application process.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for all property transactions in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation deposit is 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. The transaction completes before a Spanish notary, who registers the title deed (escritura pública) with the Land Registry. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish lawyer to act on your behalf throughout.
