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. In addition, allow for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately 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 this region'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 I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers can typically obtain a Spanish mortgage, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Variable and fixed rates currently sit in the range of 3.5–4.5%, depending on the lender and your financial profile. It is advisable to have a mortgage agreement in principle before proceeding.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this property are currently listed at nil. IBI (council tax) and basura (rubbish collection charge) figures have not yet been confirmed for this new-build unit; please request these from the developer before committing to purchase.
How can I arrange a viewing?
Contact the OceanHome team to arrange an in-person visit to the development in Bahia de las Rocas. If you are not currently in Spain, we can also organise a live video viewing so you can see the property and ask questions in real time before travelling.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Bahia de las Rocas is in a coastal area of Manilva with demand for short-term holiday lets, particularly during the summer months. Proximity to the AP-7 and to Gibraltar makes it accessible for a range of visitors. Specific occupancy data and licensing requirements for tourist rental in this municipality can be provided by the agent on request.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a consulate or in Spain. Once you have agreed the purchase, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit 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 payment is typically made. For a new build, stage payments may apply during construction. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the title deed (escritura) is signed and the balance paid. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to manage due diligence throughout.
