Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As this is a new-build property in Andalusia, IVA (VAT) of 10% applies rather than ITP transfer tax. On a price of EUR 975,000 that amounts to EUR 97,500. You should also budget for notary fees of roughly EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, which equates to around EUR 9,750 plus VAT. Total additional costs are typically in the region of EUR 108,000–110,000.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can obtain a Spanish mortgage, though lenders typically require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. On EUR 975,000 that means providing between EUR 292,500 and EUR 390,000 from your own funds. Current variable and fixed rates generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers with experience in cross-border financing.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently recorded as EUR 0 per month; please verify this with the developer as the building may not yet have an established owners' community. No IBI (annual property tax) figure is available for this new-build unit yet, as it will be assessed after the property is registered with the catastro. Utility costs will depend on consumption.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Málaga?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment, which can include a live walkthrough with one of our agents on-site. This is a practical first step for buyers based outside Spain. In-person viewings can be arranged once you are ready to visit Málaga.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Puerto Sol-Los Almendros-El Tomillar is a primarily residential neighbourhood in western Málaga city, approximately 20 minutes from the airport. Short-term tourist lets are subject to Andalusian regional licensing requirements. For longer-term residential rental, the location provides access to local employment centres and transport links. We recommend speaking to a local letting agent for current market rental figures.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once terms are agreed, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit of around EUR 3,000–6,000 is paid to take the property off the market. A private purchase contract follows, at which point typically 10% of the price is transferred. The transaction completes before a Spanish notary, where the balance is paid and keys are handed over. Instructing a Spanish property lawyer throughout the process is strongly advised.
