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. ITP does not apply. These rates are set by the Autonomous Region of Andalucía. On top of tax, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal fees. 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 — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation (whichever is lower), so you should budget for a deposit of 30–40% before purchase costs. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though your own rate will depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can introduce you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in Spanish new-build finance.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this development are not yet confirmed by the developer — please ask the agent for the most recent figure. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed, as the building is under construction; your solicitor can estimate this once the catastral value is assigned. The property carries an energy rating of G. You should also budget for home contents insurance and any utility standing charges once connected.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel immediately. For new-build developments we can also share the developer's CGI walkthrough, show-home footage, and construction progress updates. In-person viewings at the show apartment or on-site are available by appointment — contact us to arrange either option.
Is this property suitable for short-term holiday rental?
Torremolinos is one of the Costa del Sol's most established tourist destinations and properties here can qualify for a Junta de Andalucía tourist rental licence (VFT). Demand from short-stay visitors is consistent across spring, summer, and autumn. Before purchasing with rental in mind, confirm with your solicitor that the development's community statutes permit tourist lets, and register with the regional tourism authority before accepting bookings.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
First, obtain a Spanish NIE (tax identification number) — this can be done in Spain at a comisaría or through the Spanish consulate in your home country, and your solicitor can often assist. Once terms are agreed, you pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market. A private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) follows, where typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. For new builds, stage payments during construction may apply according to the developer's schedule. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes, and fees are settled and keys are handed over.
