Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase taxes and costs on this apartment?
As this is a new-build property in Andalusia, the purchase tax is IVA at 10% of the purchase price, which amounts to EUR 41,000 on a price of EUR 410,000. In addition, you should budget approximately EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (approximately EUR 4,100 plus VAT) for legal representation. Total purchase costs typically add 12–14% on top of the listed price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks generally lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation (whichever is lower), meaning a deposit of 30–40% is typically required. On EUR 410,000, that equates to a deposit of approximately EUR 123,000–164,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0 per year; buyers should confirm the final figure with the developer before exchange. IBI (annual council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build and will be set by the local authority after completion. A waste collection charge (basura) will also apply annually. These figures should be verified with the developer as part of due diligence.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome offers video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel to Mijas immediately. A recorded walkthrough can also be arranged. Contact us to schedule either a remote or in-person viewing at a time that suits you.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Hipódromo-Cerrado del Águila is primarily a residential area rather than a front-line tourist zone, so short-term holiday rental demand is more limited than in coastal locations such as Fuengirola or La Cala de Mijas. The proximity to the A-7 and Fuengirola (approximately 5 km) makes it more suitable for medium or long-term residential letting. Any rental licence requirements should be confirmed with a local solicitor.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a local police station or through a Spanish consulate abroad. Once a price is agreed, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit of typically EUR 3,000–6,000 is paid to secure the property. A private purchase contract follows, at which point around 10% of the price is transferred. The final step is signing before a Spanish notary, where the remaining balance is paid and keys are handed over.
