Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 575,000 price?
Because this is a new-build property, IVA at 10% applies instead of ITP, which adds EUR 57,500. Notary fees are typically EUR 600–1,200; land registry fees EUR 400–800; and legal fees around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (roughly EUR 5,750 before VAT). Budget for total purchase costs of approximately 12–13% above the asking price.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish lenders generally offer non-residents up to 60–70% loan-to-value on a property at this price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% (EUR 172,500–230,000) would be required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%. We can introduce you to independent mortgage brokers familiar with the Costa del Sol market.
What are the ongoing running costs?
No community fee figure has been confirmed by the developer at this stage; buyers should request this information directly. The annual IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse) charges are not yet available and will be set once the property is registered with the catastro. We recommend budgeting for these costs and obtaining written confirmation from the developer before exchange.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel to Calanova immediately. We can walk through the development and surrounding area in real time. In-person viewings can be arranged with advance notice.
Is this apartment suitable for short-term rental?
Calanova falls within the Mijas Costa tourist belt, and properties in this area are let as holiday rentals subject to obtaining an Andalusian tourist licence (Registro de Turismo de Andalucía). Demand from visitors to the Costa del Sol is consistent across the year, supported by Málaga Airport's year-round flight connections. We recommend consulting a local rental management company for realistic occupancy and income projections before purchase.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which we can help you obtain or arrange via a solicitor. Once you have agreed the purchase, a reservation fee (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) takes the property off the market. A private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) is then signed, at which point 10% of the purchase price is usually paid. Completion takes place before a notary, where the balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor throughout.
