Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
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 typically include notary fees of EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of 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 this 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 generally required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders sit broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though rates vary by lender and applicant profile. It is advisable to obtain an agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Annual IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build property and should be confirmed with the agent. Community fees are currently recorded as nil, though buyers should verify this before exchange. Utility costs will depend on usage, and buildings insurance is typically arranged separately.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. Video viewings are available on request, allowing you to tour the apartment and the communal areas via a live or recorded video call. In-person viewings can be arranged through OceanHome at a time that suits you.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday letting?
Lo Cea's position on the Costa del Sol, roughly 1 kilometre from the beach and 20 minutes from Málaga Airport, makes it a realistic candidate for short-term holiday rental. However, holiday letting in Andalucía requires a regional tourism licence, and local restrictions in Rincón de la Victoria should be confirmed before purchase. We recommend taking legal advice on this before committing.
What does the purchase process look like?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you agree a price, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) under which typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on completion, when keys are handed over and the title deed is signed. Using an independent Spanish solicitor throughout the process is strongly recommended.
