Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of the property 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 include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees at roughly 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. These are rates only — your solicitor can calculate the amounts once the purchase price is confirmed. 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 in Spain?
Non-resident buyers can access Spanish mortgages, though lenders typically require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Interest rates on Spanish mortgages currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender, term, and whether you choose a fixed or variable rate. A Spanish mortgage broker can compare products across multiple lenders.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently listed at zero for this development. The annual IBI (council tax) figure has not yet been confirmed for this new-build property and will be assessed once the development is registered with the local authority. There is also an annual basura (refuse collection) charge, which has not yet been confirmed. Your solicitor can advise on expected figures once catastral registration is complete.
Can I view the apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to visit in person. A member of the team will walk through the property and the communal areas with you via video call, and can answer questions in real time. Contact us to arrange a date and time that suits you.
What is the rental potential for this apartment in Los Alamos?
Torremolinos is a designated tourist zone, and Los Alamos benefits from proximity to the beach promenade and good transport links, which supports demand for short-term holiday lets. To rent legally on a short-term basis in Andalucía, you must obtain a regional tourist licence (VFT). Occupancy rates and achievable income vary by season and management approach — we recommend speaking to a local letting agent for realistic projections specific to this development.
What does the purchase process involve for a buyer in Spain?
You will need a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number) before completing any purchase. The process typically begins with a reservation contract and a holding deposit to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) where a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The balance is then settled at the notary on completion, when the title deed (escritura) is signed. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to carry out due diligence and guide you through each stage.
