Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this apartment?
As a new build in Spain, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.5%. ITP does not apply. Additional costs include notary fees of EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to 800, and solicitor fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Allow for a total purchase cost of roughly 13 to 14% on top of the agreed price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage to buy this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-resident buyers a loan-to-value of 60 to 70%, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% of the purchase price is required. Current fixed and variable mortgage rates for non-residents range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%. A Spanish bank valuation will be required, and approval timelines can vary, so it is advisable to begin the process early.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently recorded as zero; buyers should verify the final figure with the developer before completion. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed on this new-build property. Refuse collection charges (basura) are not yet set. Utility contracts for electricity, water, and broadband will need to be established on completion.
Can I view this apartment remotely before visiting in person?
Yes. We can arrange a live video viewing at a time that suits you, allowing you to tour the show apartment or inspect the development with one of our agents on site. In-person viewings in El Coto can typically be organised within a few days' notice.
Does this apartment have rental potential?
El Coto and the wider Las Lagunas de Mijas area attract both long-term residential tenants and coastal visitors. The 2km distance to the coast and 20-minute drive to Málaga airport make the property suitable for holiday lets, subject to obtaining a Junta de Andalucía tourist rental licence. Speak to our team for current rental market guidance specific to El Coto.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once your offer is accepted, a reservation deposit secures the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. The transaction completes before a notary, at which point the balance and all taxes are settled and the title deed (escritura) is signed.
