Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As this is a new-build property in Andalusia, VAT (IVA) applies at 10% of the purchase price, which is EUR 57,000 on EUR 570,000. You will also pay notary fees of approximately EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to 800, and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (approximately EUR 5,700 before VAT). Total additional costs are typically around 12 to 13% of the purchase price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks generally lend up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is typically required. On EUR 570,000, that equates to a deposit of EUR 171,000 to EUR 228,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the range of 3.5 to 4.5%. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers with experience in non-resident finance.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0 per year and buyers should confirm the final figure directly with the developer before exchange, as this figure may change once the development is fully operational. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build property and will be confirmed following registration. Rubbish collection (basura) costs are set by Estepona Town Hall and are typically a modest annual charge.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel to Estepona immediately. For those who can visit in person, we arrange accompanied viewings at the development in Las Mesas at a time that suits you. Please contact us to book either option.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Las Mesas is within the Estepona municipality, which is an active tourist area on the Costa del Sol. New-build apartments in this location attract both long-term rental demand from residents and short-term holiday rental interest. To let a property for tourist purposes in Andalusia you will need a regional tourist licence. We recommend speaking with a local property manager for realistic rental projections based on current market data.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, you will need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in person in Spain. Once you have agreed the purchase, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract where typically 10% of the price is paid. For new-builds, stage payments may apply during construction. The transaction completes before a notary, at which point the balance is paid and keys are handed over. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor throughout the process.
