Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this apartment?
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. AJD is set by the autonomous region of Andalucía. On top of taxes, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry registration, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal representation. 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 — worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers typically need to provide a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders generally finance up to 60–70% for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish banks range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, depending on the lender, term, and your financial profile. We recommend speaking with an independent mortgage broker before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently set at zero; buyers should confirm the final ongoing figure with the developer prior to completion. The IBI annual property tax has not yet been assessed for this new-build unit — the first bill typically arrives one to two years after the property is registered at the catastro. There is also an annual basura (waste collection) charge set by Manilva town council, which has not yet been confirmed for this unit.
Can I view the property before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment so you can see the apartment, the communal areas, and the surrounding Duquesa neighbourhood remotely. If you then wish to proceed to an in-person visit, we can arrange accompanied viewings at the development. Contact us to book either option.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
Duquesa is an established coastal tourism area with demand from visitors to the marina, the beach, and La Duquesa golf course. New-build apartments in this zone are popular with buyers seeking rental income when the property is not in personal use. You would need to register the property as a tourist accommodation with the Junta de Andalucía before letting it short-term. We do not quote projected yield figures, but we can connect you with local rental management agencies who can provide realistic market estimates.
What is the purchase process for this new-build apartment?
First, you will need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person at a police station in Spain. Once you have agreed to proceed, a reservation contract is signed and a reservation deposit paid to secure the unit. This is followed by a private purchase contract (typically with staged payments during construction if the build is ongoing). On completion, the title deed is signed before a Spanish notary and the property is registered in your name at the land registry. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to represent your interests throughout.
