Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this new-build penthouse?
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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800) and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the region's conditions — for example, age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and are worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is normally required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents generally range from 3.5% to 4.5% APR, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile. We recommend engaging a Spanish mortgage broker early in the process.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently declared at zero by the developer. IBI (annual council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build property and no basura (waste collection) charge has been confirmed. Your solicitor will be able to advise on the likely IBI figure once the catastral reference is registered.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel immediately. Show-home appointments at the development in Hipódromo-Cerrado del Águila can also be arranged for those visiting the Costa del Sol. Contact our team to schedule either option at a time that suits you.
What is the rental potential of this penthouse?
The Las Lagunas and Fuengirola area has an established short-term rental market, and top-floor penthouses with private solariums tend to achieve strong occupancy during the summer months. A tourist licence will be required for short-term letting in Andalucía. We recommend speaking with a local property management company for current rental demand and yield data specific to this neighbourhood.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you have agreed the purchase, 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 compraventa), at which point a larger deposit — typically 10% — is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance and all applicable taxes are settled. For new builds, there may be a staged payment schedule tied to construction milestones.
