Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this apartment?
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. Notary fees typically range from EUR 600 to EUR 1,200, land registry fees from EUR 400 to EUR 800, and legal fees are usually 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 non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Spanish banks typically lend up to 60–70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5% per annum, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile. We recommend seeking independent mortgage advice before committing.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed as zero; please verify the final figure with the agent before exchange, as this may change once the development is complete. The annual IBI (council tax) figure is not yet available for this new-build property — the agent can advise once the catastral reference is assigned. Basura (refuse collection) charges will also apply and vary by municipality.
Can I view this apartment remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Manilva in person. A member of our team will walk you through the development, the communal areas and the specific unit via a live video call. In-person viewings can be arranged on request.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Bahia de las Rocas and the wider Manilva coast attract visitors throughout the year owing to the proximity of Puerto de la Duquesa marina, nearby golf courses and the beach. New-build properties in this area are eligible for tourist rental licences in Andalucía, subject to meeting the required standards. We recommend speaking to a local property manager for realistic occupancy and income expectations before purchasing.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained at a local police station or through a solicitor. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation fee is typically paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point a further deposit is usually paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and ownership is formally registered. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor throughout.
