Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this property?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply to new-build purchases. 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. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet Andalucía's conditions — for example, age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage to purchase this property?
Non-resident buyers can typically obtain a mortgage from a Spanish lender, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though this depends on the lender and your individual circumstances. A mortgage broker familiar with the Spanish market can provide tailored guidance.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently set at zero for this development. The annual IBI (local property tax) figure has not yet been confirmed for this new-build unit. Basura (waste collection) charges are also to be confirmed. Once established, these figures will be available from the agent or the development's administrator.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. Video viewings are available for this property and can be arranged at a time that suits you. Simply contact the agent to book either a remote video viewing or an in-person visit to the development in Bahia de las Rocas.
Is this property suitable as a holiday rental investment?
Manilva and the Bahia de las Rocas area attract holiday visitors due to their coastal position and access to the AP-7 corridor. A penthouse with a private solarium and 2 parking spaces can appeal to the holiday rental market. Rental licensing requirements apply in Andalucía, and the agent can advise on the registration process and current demand in this specific area. Yield figures will depend on pricing, occupancy, and management costs.
What steps are involved in purchasing a property in Spain?
The first step is to obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required by all foreign buyers. A reservation contract and fee are used to take the property off the market while due diligence is carried out. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point a further deposit — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance and all applicable taxes are settled, and the title deed (escritura) is signed.
