Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 549,000 asking price?
As a new-build property, VAT (IVA) at 10% applies, which amounts to EUR 54,900. Additional costs include notary fees (EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800), and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Total purchase costs typically add 12–14% on top of the price.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks generally lend up to 60–70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is required. On EUR 549,000, that equates to a deposit of approximately EUR 165,000–EUR 220,000. Current variable and fixed rates range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%. A mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property is advisable.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
There are no community fees registered for this property. The annual IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed as the property is a new build; this figure will be confirmed once the property is registered with the local authority. Utility connection costs and refuse collection charges should be confirmed with the agent.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome offers video viewings for buyers who are unable to travel to Lo Marabú immediately. A member of our team can conduct a live walkthrough via video call at a time that suits you. In-person viewings can be arranged once you are ready to visit.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
Lo Marabú and the wider Rojales area attract both long-term residents and short-term visitors given the proximity to Ciudad Quesada amenities and La Marquesa Golf Course. A tourist rental licence would be required for short-term letting in this region. We recommend consulting a local property lawyer to confirm current licence requirements before purchase.
What does the purchase process involve in Spain?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is the Spanish tax identification number required by all foreign buyers. Once you agree a price, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes are settled and the title deeds are signed.
