Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this property?
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, both set at the autonomous-region level. ITP does not apply to new-build purchases. 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 budget. Additional costs typically include notary fees (EUR 600–1,200), land-registry fees (EUR 400–800), and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. These figures are rates only; your solicitor will calculate the exact amounts once a price is agreed.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage in Spain for this property?
Yes. Spanish lenders generally offer non-resident buyers up to 70% loan-to-value on a purchase like this, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is typically required. Interest rates on Spanish mortgages currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and product chosen. A mortgage broker with experience in cross-border lending can help you compare offers before you commit.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently listed at no charge; buyers should confirm with the developer whether a service charge will apply once the complex is fully occupied. The annual IBI (council tax) figure is not yet available for this new-build unit and will be assessed by the local authority after completion. Basura (refuse collection) charges are also not yet confirmed. Budget for utility connections and any furniture or fit-out costs on top of the purchase price.
Is it possible to view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We can arrange a live video viewing at a time that suits you, walking through the unit and communal areas in real time so you can ask questions as we go. A video tour and the full image gallery are also available on request. Once you are ready to visit in person, Málaga Airport is around 20 minutes from Las Lagunas, making a short trip straightforward.
Is this property suitable as a holiday rental investment?
Las Lagunas serves primarily as a residential area rather than a tourist-rental hotspot, so short-term holiday rental demand here is more limited than in beachfront resorts. The property is 3km from the coast and within easy reach of Fuengirola and Marbella, which may support medium-term or long-term rental income. Speak to a local letting agent for realistic occupancy and yield estimates before making any investment decision. A tourist rental licence from the Junta de Andalucía is required for any short-term letting.
What are the main steps in the Spanish purchase process?
First, obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for all property transactions in Spain and can be arranged through a Spanish consulate or a local gestor. Once you have agreed terms, you typically sign a reservation agreement and pay a holding deposit to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit is paid, usually around 10% of the purchase price. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is transferred and keys are handed over. Engaging an independent solicitor before you sign anything is strongly recommended.
