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. Additional costs include 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 this region's conditions (for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence) — worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and chosen lender. We can put you in touch with independent mortgage brokers familiar with non-resident applications.
What are the estimated running costs?
Community fees are estimated at EUR 115 per month, covering maintenance of communal areas including the pool, sauna, and gymnasium. The annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 650. Both figures are estimates and may change once the development is formally registered. Utility costs (electricity, water) will depend on usage.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Fuengirola immediately. Our agents can conduct a live video walkthrough of the property and the communal areas, and can answer questions in real time. Contact us to schedule a convenient time, or request a recorded video tour.
What is the rental potential for this property?
Fuengirola is a well-established tourist destination on the Costa del Sol with consistent demand for short-term holiday rentals throughout the year. Los Pacos is within reach of the town centre and the coast, making properties here attractive to both short-let and long-let tenants. You would need to obtain a tourist licence from the Junta de Andalucía before operating a short-term let. We recommend consulting a local property manager for realistic occupancy and rental income estimates based on current market conditions.
What does the purchase process look like?
The first step is obtaining a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which is required for any property transaction. Once you have agreed terms, you typically pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) where a further deposit, commonly 10% of the purchase price, is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance is transferred and ownership is formally registered at the Land Registry. For new builds, the timeline to completion will depend on the construction stage at the time of reservation.
