Questions buyers ask us
Do I need an NIE to buy property in Spain?
Yes. Every buyer needs a foreigner identification number (NIE) to sign at the notary, pay taxes and connect utilities. We help you apply, in Spain or through a Spanish consulate at home.
What are the buying costs in Andalucía?
On a resale home, transfer tax (ITP) is 7% of the price. On a new build you pay VAT (IVA) at 10% plus stamp duty (AJD) of 1.2%. Allow roughly another 1–2% for the notary, land registry and your lawyer.
Can non-residents get a Spanish mortgage?
Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-residents, typically up to 60–70% of the purchase price, depending on your income and where you live.
Do I need a lawyer to buy in Spain?
It is not a legal requirement, but we strongly recommend one. An independent lawyer checks the nota simple, licences and any debts on the property before you sign anything.
Is inland Málaga better value than the coast?
Usually you get more space and land for the money. Towns such as Coín, Alhaurín el Grande and Monda sit within reach of Málaga Airport and the beaches, at lower prices per square metre than most coastal towns.
