Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 530,000 asking price?
As this is a new-build property, VAT (IVA) applies at 10%, which amounts to EUR 53,000. Additional costs include stamp duty (AJD) at around 1.5% (approximately EUR 7,950), notary fees of EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of approximately 1% plus VAT (around EUR 6,360 including VAT). In total, budget for roughly EUR 68,000–70,000 in purchase costs on top of the sale price.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend up to 60–70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning you would need a deposit of 30–40%. On a purchase price of EUR 530,000, that equates to EUR 159,000–212,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers who work with non-resident buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are currently registered at EUR 0 per month; buyers should verify the final figure with the developer before signing. The annual IBI (council tax) has not yet been set by the local authority for this new-build unit. Utility connection costs and the basura (refuse) charge will also apply once the property is occupied.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment for buyers who are unable to travel to Bahía de las Rocas in person. Our agent can walk you through the development, show the communal areas, and answer questions in real time. In-person viewings can also be arranged on request.
Is this property suitable for short-term holiday rental?
Bahía de las Rocas is within a tourist zone on the western Costa del Sol, and new-build penthouses in the area can qualify for a Vivienda con Fines Turísticos (VFT) licence, subject to approval by the Junta de Andalucía and any community rules. Demand from holiday visitors to this stretch of coast is consistent throughout the year given its proximity to Málaga Airport. We recommend speaking to a local property manager for realistic occupancy expectations before purchase.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is a tax identification number required for all property transactions in Spain. Once you have agreed the purchase, you pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras) where typically 10% of the price is paid. For new-build properties, stage payments are then made during construction. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance is paid and the title deed (escritura) is signed. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor throughout the process.
