Frequently Asked Questions
What are the approximate purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new-build in Andalusia, IVA (VAT) at 10% applies rather than ITP transfer tax. On EUR 428,000 that is EUR 42,800 in IVA. You will also pay stamp duty (AJD) at approximately 1.5%, notary fees of EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of around 1% plus VAT. Total purchase costs typically run at 13–15% above the asking price.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish lenders generally offer non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is required. On EUR 428,000 that equates to between EUR 128,400 and EUR 171,200. Fixed and variable mortgage rates for non-residents are currently in the 3.5–4.5% range, though individual terms depend on the lender and your financial profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently recorded as EUR 0 per month; this figure should be confirmed once the development's community is formally constituted and a budget agreed. The annual IBI (council tax) amount is not yet available for this new-build and must be confirmed with Torremolinos Town Hall after registration. A separate annual basura (refuse collection) charge will also apply.
Can I arrange a viewing without travelling to Torremolinos?
Yes. OceanHome offers live video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot visit in person. Contact us to book a walkthrough at a convenient time, or to request a recorded video tour of the development and show home.
What is the rental potential in El Pinillo, Torremolinos?
Torremolinos is a well-established tourist destination with demand for short-term rentals across most of the year. Apartments in El Pinillo can apply for a Vivienda con Fines Turísticos (VFT) licence from the Junta de Andalucía, subject to the building's community rules. We do not quote yield estimates, but a local property manager can provide realistic occupancy projections based on comparable properties.
How does the buying process work in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), obtainable at a Spanish consulate or in Spain. A reservation contract is then signed and a holding deposit, typically EUR 3,000–6,000, is paid to secure the property. A private purchase contract follows, at which point a further deposit of around 10% is transferred. For new-builds, staged payments during construction are standard. The transaction completes before a notary, where the remaining balance is paid and ownership is formally transferred.
