Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this new-build apartment?
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. On top of those taxes, budget for notary fees of roughly EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of 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?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-resident buyers a loan-to-value of 60–70%, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is usually required. Interest rates for non-resident mortgages currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and product. Your solicitor or an independent mortgage broker can help you compare options before you make an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are estimated at EUR 95 per month, covering shared areas including the pool, garden and gymnasium. Annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 520. Both figures are estimates at this stage; your solicitor can confirm the final amounts once the development is registered. Utility bills will depend on your personal usage.
Can I view the apartment remotely?
Yes. The agent can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call, giving you a real-time walkthrough of the show unit or the specific apartment. Floor plans are also available on request. To book an in-person or video viewing, contact the OceanHome team directly.
What is the rental potential of this apartment?
Las Flores falls within the Mijas Costa tourist corridor, which attracts consistent short-term holiday rental demand from spring through to autumn. New-build apartments with communal facilities and two parking spaces in this area are attractive to short-let platforms. You should obtain a tourist rental licence from the Junta de Andalucía before letting the property, and your solicitor can advise on the application process. The agent can provide general market context, though no specific yield figure is guaranteed.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, obtain a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number), which is required for all property transactions. Once you have agreed a price, you pay a reservation fee to take the apartment off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) in which a further deposit — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. If the buyer withdraws after signing arras, the deposit is forfeited; if the seller pulls out, they must return double the deposit. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes and fees are settled and the title deed is signed.
