Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this new-build penthouse in La Cala de Mijas?
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 at 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 — worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Interest rates on Spanish mortgages currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and whether you opt for a fixed or variable rate. We can connect you with independent mortgage brokers who specialise in non-resident lending.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are currently listed as nil for this development; buyers should confirm the final service charge budget directly with the developer before exchange. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assigned as the property is a new build and a catastral reference is pending. Basura (refuse collection) charges have also not yet been set. We recommend budgeting for these costs once the property is registered.
Can I view this property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment for buyers who are unable to travel to La Cala de Mijas in person. These can be arranged via video call, with an agent walking through the unit and the communal areas in real time. In-person viewings are also available seven days a week with prior notice.
What is the rental potential for this penthouse?
La Cala de Mijas is a tourist-registered area with strong seasonal demand, particularly from late spring through early autumn. Top-floor properties with sea views and private terraces attract higher short-term rental rates than equivalent lower-floor units. We recommend speaking with a local lettings specialist to obtain current occupancy data and net yield estimates based on the current market, as figures vary by season and management approach.
What is the buying process for this property?
The first practical step is obtaining a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which is required for any property transaction. Once you have agreed terms, you pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) at which point a further deposit, commonly 10% of the purchase price, is paid. The balance is transferred at completion in front of a Spanish notary, who registers the title deed. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before signing any document.
