Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this villa?
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. Both IVA and AJD are set by the autonomous region of Andalucía. In addition to tax, allow for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and independent legal representation typically at 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 it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders generally offer non-resident buyers financing of up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is typically required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, though individual offers depend on your financial profile and the lender. Your solicitor or an independent mortgage broker can help compare products from Spanish banks.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this villa are nil. IBI (annual property tax) and basura (refuse collection charge) have not yet been assessed by the local authority — the agent can advise once figures are confirmed. As a guide, IBI for a property of this size in Marbella typically falls in the range set by the Ayuntamiento once the catastral value is registered.
Can I view this villa remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. The agent can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you. A full set of 33 photographs and the floor plan are also available on request. In-person viewings can be booked directly through the OceanHome office.
Is this villa suitable as a rental investment?
Santa María sits within Marbella's designated tourist zone, and properties here are eligible to apply for a short-term holiday rental licence through the Junta de Andalucía. Demand along the Marbella coast is established across a long season, with golf tourism extending activity into spring and autumn. The agent can provide guidance on the licence application process, but we do not quote projected yields as these depend on occupancy management and market conditions.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once terms are 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 arras), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on completion, when the title deed (escritura) is signed and the keys are handed over. Engaging an independent Spanish solicitor before reservation is strongly recommended.
