Frequently Asked Questions
What are the total purchase costs for this penthouse?
As a new-build property in Andalusia, you pay IVA at 10% instead of ITP. On a purchase price of EUR 720,000, that is EUR 72,000 in tax. Add notary fees of approximately EUR 600 to EUR 1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400 to EUR 800, and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (approximately EUR 8,712 including 21% VAT). Total estimated purchase costs are in the region of EUR 82,000 to EUR 83,000 on top of the agreed price.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Non-resident buyers can typically obtain a mortgage on a Spanish property, though most lenders require a deposit of 30 to 40% of the purchase price. On EUR 720,000, that means providing between EUR 216,000 and EUR 288,000 from your own funds. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers with experience in non-resident applications.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this property are currently registered at EUR 0 per year. IBI (council tax) figures are not yet available as this is a new-build; an estimated figure will be confirmed once the property is registered with the local catastro. Utility contracts for electricity and water will need to be set up in the buyer's name on completion.
Can I arrange a viewing, and is a remote option available?
In-person viewings can be arranged at a time that suits you by contacting our Mijas team directly. If you are not currently in Spain, we also offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call, during which an agent will walk through the property and the communal areas in real time. Contact us to book either option.
What is the rental potential for this property?
Calanova is within the Mijas municipality, which is a recognised tourist area on the Costa del Sol. Penthouse properties with a solarium and communal pool in this zone can attract short-term holiday rental bookings from spring through to autumn. To let legally on a short-term basis, you will need a tourist rental licence (VFT) from the Junta de Andalucía. We do not quote yield percentages as these vary depending on occupancy rates, management costs, and seasonal demand.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all property transactions in Spain. Once you have agreed the purchase, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras), where typically 10% of the purchase price is paid and both parties are legally bound. The final step is signing the public deed (escritura) before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is paid and ownership transfers to you.
