Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs should I budget for?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply. On top of tax, allow for 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 — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically obtain a mortgage covering 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is generally required. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and chosen lender. We recommend obtaining an agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
No community fees are currently recorded for this property. IBI (annual council tax) has not yet been assessed, as the villa is a new build, and this figure will be set by the local authority after completion. Waste collection charges (basura) will similarly be confirmed post-completion. You should also budget for utility connections and home insurance once the property is handed over.
How can I arrange a viewing?
In-person viewings can be arranged at a time to suit you by contacting our team directly. If you are based outside Spain or prefer to see the property remotely first, we can arrange a live video viewing, giving you a guided tour of the villa, plot and surrounding area before you travel.
Is this villa suitable as a rental investment?
El Higuerón sits within the Mijas Costa tourist zone, where short-term holiday letting is popular. Properties in this area are rented on a nightly and weekly basis throughout the year, with strongest demand from late spring through early autumn. A rental licence must be obtained from the Junta de Andalucía before letting legally. We can connect you with local management companies who can provide occupancy data for comparable properties in El Higuerón.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once you have agreed a price, 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), at which point a further payment — typically 10% of the purchase price — is made. The transaction is completed before a notary, at which point the remaining balance is paid and the title deeds are signed. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to oversee the process on your behalf.
