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, set by the Autonomous Community of Andalucía. ITP does not apply to new builds. You should also allow for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal fees typically 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 — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders usually offer a maximum loan-to-value of 60–70% for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though your individual rate will depend on your lender, financial profile, and loan term. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in cross-border purchases.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently recorded as nil for this unit, though buyers should verify the final figure with the developer before exchange. The annual IBI property tax and basura (refuse) charge are not yet confirmed, as the catastral reference has not been assigned to the completed property. We will share these figures as soon as they become available from the local authority.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment, where one of our agents can walk you through the development and the unit live via video call. In-person viewings of the show apartment or the completed unit can be arranged on weekdays and most Saturdays. Please contact us to confirm availability and your preferred format.
Does this property have rental potential?
Santa Clara and the broader Marbella east corridor attract both long-term residents and seasonal visitors, with consistent demand from golf and beach tourists throughout much of the year. A property of this size and specification in the area is well suited to the premium holiday rental market. We can connect you with a local rental management company who can provide a realistic occupancy and revenue assessment based on current market data.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. The typical sequence is: a reservation agreement and deposit to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) with a further staged payment, and finally completion before a notary, at which point the title deed (escritura) is signed and the balance paid. For new builds, payments are often staged according to construction milestones. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before you sign anything.
