Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of the EUR 279,000 price?
As a new-build property, you pay IVA (VAT) at 10% rather than transfer tax, which amounts to EUR 27,900. On top of that, allow approximately EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and around 1% plus VAT (roughly EUR 3,300–3,500) for a solicitor. Total additional costs typically fall between EUR 32,000 and EUR 33,500.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, so you should plan for a deposit of 30–40%. On EUR 279,000 that means approximately EUR 83,700–111,600 upfront. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though this varies by lender and your financial profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0; buyers should confirm the final ongoing figure directly with the developer before completing. IBI (council tax) and basura (rubbish collection charge) have not yet been assigned to this new-build unit and should be requested from the agent or the Manilva town hall once the property is registered.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome offers video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Duquesa in person. Contact us to arrange a live video walkthrough of the development at a time that suits you. In-person viewings of the show unit or completed apartments can also be arranged with advance notice.
What is the rental potential in Duquesa?
Duquesa sits within a designated tourist zone in Andalusia, and properties here can be let on a short-term basis provided the owner obtains a Vivienda con Fines Turísticos (VFT) licence from the Junta de Andalucía. The marina location and proximity to Málaga Airport support year-round demand. We do not quote rental yield figures, but the agent can provide data on comparable let prices in the area.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
First, obtain a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you agree a price, you sign a reservation contract and pay a holding deposit, typically EUR 3,000–6,000, to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where you pay a further agreed percentage. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered.
