Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As this is a new-build, VAT (IVA) applies at 10%, which equals EUR 62,500 on the EUR 625,000 price. You should also budget for notary fees of EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (roughly EUR 7,500 plus VAT). Total additional costs typically fall between EUR 71,000 and EUR 73,000.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish lenders generally offer non-residents up to 60–70% loan-to-value on a property priced at EUR 625,000, meaning a deposit of 30–40% (EUR 187,500–250,000) is typically required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers with experience in Costa del Sol purchases.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed as EUR 0, though as a new development this figure may be revised once the community of owners is formally established. No IBI (council tax) figure has been confirmed yet, as IBI is set by the local council once the property is registered with a catastral reference. Ask your solicitor to confirm both figures before exchange.
How can I arrange a viewing?
You can request an in-person viewing at the development in Bahia de las Rocas, or we can arrange a remote video viewing if you are not currently in Spain. Contact OceanHome to book either option at a time that suits you.
Is this property suitable as a holiday rental?
Bahia de las Rocas falls within the Manilva municipality on the Costa del Sol, an area with consistent tourist demand, particularly during summer months. New-build penthouses with solariums and communal pools tend to attract short-term rental interest. You will need a Junta de Andalucía tourist licence (VFT) before legally letting the property, and you should check the development's community rules regarding rental permissions.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for all property transactions in Spain. Once terms are agreed, a reservation fee takes the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras) in which you typically pay 10% of the price. For new-builds, stage payments may apply during construction. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is paid and the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered.
