Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this villa?
As a new build, this property is subject to IVA at 10% rather than ITP, which amounts to EUR 135,000 on the asking price of EUR 1,350,000. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800), and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Total purchase costs are typically in the range of 12–14% on top of the sale price.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a minimum deposit of around 30–40% is required. On a price of EUR 1,350,000, that equates to a deposit of EUR 405,000–540,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though exact terms depend on your bank and financial profile.
What are the ongoing running costs?
No community fees are currently registered for this property. The annual IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed and should be confirmed directly with the developer or local authority before exchange. There is no basura (rubbish collection) figure on file either. Budget for these costs once the property is formally registered.
Can I arrange a viewing?
Yes. In-person viewings can be arranged through our Fuengirola office at a time to suit you. If you are based outside Spain, we also offer video viewings so you can tour the property remotely before committing to travel.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Reserva del Higuerón falls within a tourist-active area of the Costa del Sol and properties here have been used for short-term holiday lettings. To let legally, you would need to obtain a Vivienda con Fines Turísticos (VFT) licence from the Junta de Andalucía. Demand for short-term rentals in this corridor is consistent due to proximity to Málaga airport and Benalmádena marina.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once agreed, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid, typically EUR 3,000–6,000. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where usually 10% of the price is paid. The final balance is paid at the notary on the day of completion, when the title deed (escritura) is signed and ownership is transferred.
