Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 430,000 asking price?
As this is a new-build, IVA applies at 10% rather than ITP, adding EUR 43,000 to the purchase price. Stamp duty (AJD) in Andalusia is 1.2% (EUR 5,160). Notary fees are typically EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees EUR 400 to 800, and legal fees around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Budget approximately 13 to 14% on top of the sale price to cover all acquisition costs.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can generally obtain a mortgage from a Spanish bank, though lenders typically require a deposit of 30 to 40% of the purchase price. On EUR 430,000 that means providing EUR 129,000 to EUR 172,000 from your own funds. Current variable and fixed rates in Spain sit broadly in the 3.5 to 4.5% range, though you should obtain formal offers from at least two lenders before proceeding.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently listed as EUR 0 per month; buyers should confirm the final service charge with the developer before signing. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build and will be calculated once the property is registered at the land registry. Utility connection costs are payable separately on new-build properties.
Can I view the apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome offers video viewings by appointment, allowing you to walk through the development with one of our agents via a live call. We can also supply developer floor plans, material specifications and site plans ahead of any visit. In-person viewings can be arranged at short notice for buyers travelling to the Manilva or Costa del Sol area.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Chullera and the wider Manilva area attract both long-term residents and short-term holiday visitors thanks to proximity to Puerto de la Duquesa and Málaga Airport. New-build apartments in this part of the Costa del Sol can qualify for a tourist rental licence (subject to Junta de Andalucía approval), which may support short-term lettings during the summer season. Buyers should seek independent rental appraisals before making investment decisions.
What is the process for purchasing this property?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate in your home country or at a police station in Spain. Once you have agreed on the price, a reservation contract is signed and a deposit of around EUR 3,000 to 6,000 is paid to secure the property. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further 10% deposit is typically paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes are paid. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor throughout the process.
