Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2%, set by the Autonomous Community of Andalucía. ITP does not apply to new-build purchases. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800) and solicitor 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 — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders generally offer mortgages of up to 60–70% of the valuation for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range broadly from 3.5% to 4.5%, though your individual rate will depend on the lender and your financial profile. We recommend seeking independent mortgage advice before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently recorded as zero for this development; buyers should verify this figure with the agent prior to exchange, as the complex is new-build and service charges may be set once the community is formally constituted. The annual IBI (council tax) figure is not yet available for this property. Utility costs — electricity, water and internet — will depend on personal usage.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to visit in person, including live video calls with an agent on-site and pre-recorded walk-throughs of the development. Contact us to arrange a video viewing at a time that suits you, or to book an in-person visit to Hipódromo-Cerrado del Águila.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
Hipódromo-Cerrado del Águila sits within the municipality of Mijas, which is an established tourist area on the Costa del Sol. The development's proximity to Fuengirola beach (approximately 4 km) and Málaga Airport (approximately 20 minutes) makes it attractive to short-term holiday renters. To let the property on a short-term basis, you will need to obtain a tourist rental licence from the Junta de Andalucía. We recommend consulting a local property lawyer about current licensing requirements before purchase.
What does the purchase process involve for buyers in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation agreement is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point a further deposit — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The sale is completed before a Spanish notary, who registers the transfer at the land registry. We recommend appointing an independent solicitor to represent your interests throughout.
