Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond 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. Both rates are set by the Autonomous Community of Andalucía. On top of these taxes, allow approximately EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry registration, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal representation. 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 — and it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically access Spanish mortgages covering 60–70% of the purchase or valuation price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Variable and fixed rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, though your individual offer will depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can connect you with mortgage brokers who specialise in non-resident finance.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently set at no charge for this development. IBI (annual property tax) and basura (waste collection charge) figures have not yet been confirmed for this new-build and should be verified with the agent prior to exchange. You should also factor in utility connection costs and any home insurance you take out.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment, allowing you to take a guided tour of the development and the unit from wherever you are. Simply contact us to arrange a convenient time. In-person viewings in Centro, Torremolinos are also available.
Does this property have rental potential?
Centro is within Torremolinos' established tourist rental area, and the town draws visitors throughout the year due to its beach proximity and transport links. New-build penthouses with communal facilities and parking can command competitive short-term rental rates in this location. You will need a tourist rental licence from the Junta de Andalucía before letting; your solicitor can advise on the application process and any conditions that apply.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you agree terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit is paid to take the property off the market. This is typically followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit is paid, usually 10% of the price. The remaining balance is paid at completion before a notary, who registers the title transfer. Using an independent Spanish solicitor throughout is strongly recommended.
