About buying in Marbella

• Is now a good time to buy in Marbella?

  It depends on the price per square metre and the area, not on the city. On the Costa del Sol new builds and resales move at different speeds, and the same money buys very different things in Marbella, Estepona and Benahavís. What we do before you reserve is compare that price against what sells around it and check the paperwork. We have been in real estate since 2005 and not everything we are offered makes it into the inventory.

• Can a foreigner buy in Marbella?

  Yes, in their own name and with the same taxes as a resident. You need an NIE (foreigner identification number) and, if you do not live here, a lawyer or representative with power of attorney to sign. A Spanish bank account helps with the payments. The sale is signed before a notary and registered at the Land Registry. There is no trust and no company is needed.

• How much are taxes and fees when buying in Marbella?

  On a new build, 10% VAT plus stamp duty (AJD), which in Andalusia is 1.2%. Plus the notary and the land registry, which charge an official fee scale, and the gestoría. On €825,000 that is around €93,524. These are approximate figures and do not include the gestoría.

• Who pays the agency commission?

  The seller or the developer. On the Costa del Sol the commission comes from whoever sells, so buying Isla Bela with us costs you the same as going direct. What changes is what we check before you sign. You pay the taxes and the notary, registry and administrative fees.

• What do you pay every year after buying?

  The IBI (property tax), set by each town hall, and the refuse charge. The community fee, if it is a building or an urbanisation, set by each administrator: we give you the exact fee before you reserve. And if you are not resident in Spain, the non-resident income tax, filed every year even if you do not rent it out.

• Is it safe to buy off-plan in Marbella?

  It depends on what you check before signing. What cannot be missing: the building licence granted, the bank guarantee or insurance covering the amounts you pay on account (the law requires it), the contract with delivery dates and penalties for delay, and the developer's track record: how many projects they have delivered and how late. If something does not add up, we tell you and we do not sell it to you.

• Can you rent it out short term in Marbella?

  In Andalusia holiday rentals are registered with the regional tourism registry and need a first occupation licence. Some town halls and owners' communities set limits, so it is checked case by case before buying. Long-term rentals do not need that registration.
