Frequently Asked Questions
What are the estimated purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As this is a new-build, VAT (IVA) applies at 10%, which equals EUR 131,500. Additional costs include notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (roughly EUR 13,150 plus VAT). Total additional costs are typically 12–13% of the purchase price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. On EUR 1,315,000 that equates to a deposit of approximately EUR 394,500–526,000. Variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain currently range from around 3.5% to 4.5%. We can connect you with specialist brokers who work with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0 per year; buyers should verify the final figure with the developer, as charges for a completed development may differ. IBI (annual council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build and will be set once the property is registered. A basura (refuse collection) charge will also apply annually once assessed.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot visit in person straight away. A video call walkthrough can be arranged at a time to suit you, and we can follow up with a face-to-face viewing once you are ready to travel to Puerto de la Duquesa.
Is this property suitable as a holiday rental investment?
Puerto de la Duquesa is a recognised tourist area with a marina, beach, and good road access to Málaga Airport roughly 20 minutes away. Properties in this area attract short-term rental demand throughout the year, with peak periods in summer. Rental income potential will depend on the final licence situation; we recommend taking independent advice from a local rental management company before purchasing for investment purposes.
What does the purchase process involve for an overseas buyer?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. The process then involves a reservation contract and payment (typically EUR 6,000–10,000), followed by a private purchase contract (arras) where around 10% of the price is paid. The balance is settled at completion before a notary, who registers the title deed. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to act for you throughout.
