Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this property?
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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees 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 budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can generally obtain a mortgage, though lenders typically require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Variable and fixed interest rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, depending on the lender and your financial profile. We recommend seeking independent mortgage advice before proceeding.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are estimated at EUR 165 per month, covering the shared facilities including the gymnasium and communal areas. Annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 1,110. Both figures are estimates and may be subject to change. There is no basura (refuse collection) fee recorded for this listing at present.
Can I arrange a viewing, and is a remote option available?
Yes. In-person viewings can be arranged through our Mijas office. If you are based outside Spain or prefer an initial remote visit, we can also organise a live video viewing at a time that suits you. Contact us to book either option.
Does this property have rental potential?
Hipódromo-Cerrado del Águila is situated close to the Mijas Costa tourist strip, which generates consistent short-term rental demand throughout the year. Penthouses with private outdoor space, communal facilities, and proximity to the coast tend to attract good occupancy during summer and shoulder seasons. Any rental activity requires a regional tourist licence; your legal adviser can confirm the current requirements in Andalucía.
What is the purchase process for this property?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), obtainable via a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once you agree terms, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) in which a larger deposit, typically 10%, is paid. For a new build, stage payments may apply during construction. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is settled and keys are handed over. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before exchanging any contracts.
