Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this new-build penthouse?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2%. ITP does not apply. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (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 the region's conditions — for example, age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and it is worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is generally required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, depending on the lender and your financial profile. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers who specialise in Spanish property finance.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed at nil for this development; buyers should confirm the final figure with the developer prior to completion. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build unit and will be calculated once the property is registered with the local catastro. Additional running costs include buildings insurance and utilities.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to travel. Our agents can conduct a live walkthrough of the development and available units via video call, and we can also share developer show-flat footage and CGI materials where available. In-person viewings in Puerto de la Duquesa can be arranged at short notice.
What is the rental potential for this penthouse?
Puerto de la Duquesa marina draws steady visitor traffic throughout the year, and top-floor penthouses with marina proximity typically command higher nightly rates than standard apartments in the area. A short-term tourist licence will be required for holiday lets in Andalucía. We recommend speaking to a local lettings agent for current rental market data before making any investment assumptions.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or through a local gestor. Once you have identified the property, a reservation fee is paid to take it off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) where typically 10% of the purchase price changes hands. On new builds, stage payments may apply during construction. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the title deeds are signed and the balance is transferred. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor throughout the process.
