Frequently Asked Questions

What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
As a resale in Andalucía, this purchase carries ITP transfer tax at 7% of the purchase price. Notary fees typically run EUR 600–1,200 and land registry fees EUR 400–800. Legal representation is generally around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. 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?
Non-resident buyers in Spain typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders generally finance up to 60–70% for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates broadly range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though your individual rate will depend on your lender and financial profile. We can connect you with independent mortgage brokers experienced in the Spanish market.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Estimated community fees are 95 EUR per month, covering shared areas including the pool, solarium and gymnasium. Estimated annual IBI (local property tax) is 700 EUR. Both figures are estimates. Utility bills will vary according to personal usage.
Can I view this apartment remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Fuengirola immediately. Our agents can walk you through the apartment and the communal areas live via video call, at a time that suits you. In-person viewings can be arranged once you are ready to visit El Tejar directly.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
El Tejar's location in Fuengirola, close to the beach and the town's amenities, makes it a practical option for short-term holiday letting. Fuengirola is an established tourist destination with demand across the summer months and, increasingly, the shoulder seasons. A local rental management company can advise on licensing requirements under Andalucía's tourist rental regulations and realistic occupancy levels for this area.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for any property transaction in Spain. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation deposit secures the property while due diligence is carried out. This is typically followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point a further deposit — usually 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, who registers the transfer at the land registry. Your solicitor will co-ordinate each stage.
