Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new build in Andalusia, IVA applies at 10% instead of ITP, which adds EUR 350,000 on a purchase price of EUR 3,500,000. 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 35,000 plus VAT). Total acquisition costs are typically 12–13% above the purchase price.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident?
Spanish banks will typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, so a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. On a purchase of EUR 3,500,000, that means having at least EUR 1,050,000–1,400,000 available before mortgage costs. Current variable and fixed rates generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%. We can introduce you to specialist brokers who work with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees are recorded as EUR 0 for this property, though buyers should verify this with the agent as fees may apply once the development is complete. IBI (annual council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build and should be confirmed prior to exchange. Utility connection costs and waste collection charges will also apply once the property is occupied.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. For new-build properties at this stage, we can arrange a video call walkthrough of the plot, the show home or architectural renders, and the surrounding La Reserva de Marbella neighbourhood. In-person site visits can be organised with advance notice, and we can coordinate airport transfers from Málaga AGP, which is around 20 minutes away.
What is the rental potential for this property?
La Reserva de Marbella sits within a high-demand area of the Costa del Sol, and large villas with private pools in this price bracket command strong short-term rental rates, particularly from June to September. Marbella's tourist licence requirements apply, and buyers should obtain a VFT (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos) licence before letting the property. We recommend speaking to a local rental management company for realistic occupancy and rate projections.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained via a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid, typically EUR 6,000–10,000. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point 10% of the purchase price is usually paid. The sale is completed before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed. For new builds, staged payments during construction are common and should be backed by a bank guarantee.
