Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically 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 — and are worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
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 mortgage rates currently sit in the range of 3.5–4.5%, depending on the lender and your financial profile. Speaking with a Spanish mortgage broker before making an offer is advisable.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed as zero; buyers should verify this with the agent before exchange as the development is newly completed. The annual IBI (council tax) figure has not yet been assigned to this unit. There is no basura (refuse) charge listed at this stage. Buyers should budget for utilities and any eventual community fee once the owners' association is established.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call if you are unable to visit in person. We can also provide a detailed walkthrough video on request. In-person viewings can be scheduled through the agent directly.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
Duquesa's marina, beach access, and golf proximity make it a popular area for short-term holiday rentals. To let the property to tourists legally in Andalucía, you will need to register for a Vivienda con Fines Turísticos (VFT) licence through the Junta de Andalucía. Your legal representative can advise on the registration process and any local restrictions that apply.
What is the typical purchase process in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which can be obtained in person at a Spanish consulate or via a representative. Once agreed, 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 larger deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The purchase completes at a Spanish notary, where the escritura (title deed) is signed and the balance transferred. Completion is then registered with the land registry.
