Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to 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%, set by the Andalucían autonomous region. ITP does not apply to new builds. 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 — so check eligibility before finalising your budget. Additional costs include 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.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents mortgages covering up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower. That means a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Variable and fixed rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% APR, though your actual rate will depend on your lender and financial profile. We recommend speaking to an independent mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property finance.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently recorded at zero for this development; please confirm the final figure with the developer before exchange. Annual IBI (local council tax) and rubbish collection charges have not yet been assigned to this unit and should be confirmed once the property is registered with the local authority.
Can I view this apartment remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to the Costa del Sol immediately. Contact our team to arrange a live walkthrough at a time that suits you, or to request any additional photos or footage of the development.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Manilva and the Bahía de las Rocas area attract holiday visitors due to the nearby marina at Puerto de la Duquesa, the coastline, and good road links to Gibraltar and Málaga. Short-term tourist lets require a licence from the Junta de Andalucía. We recommend speaking to a local property management company for realistic occupancy and income figures specific to this development and unit type before making any rental projections.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation fee 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 — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on completion, when the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to represent your interests throughout.
