FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What types of properties are available in Estepona?
A: Estepona offers apartments and penthouses close to the town center or beachfront, often with modern finishes and sea views. Townhouses provide multi-level living in gated communities for a balance of space and security. Detached villas range from contemporary new builds to traditional Andalusian homes, complete with private gardens and pools.
What is the average price range for homes in Estepona?
Prices vary by type and location:
- Apartments/townhouses: €200,000–€250,000
- Detached villas: €300,000–€800,000+
- Fincas/rustic plots: €200,000–€600,000
Proximity to the golf courses, coast (Manilva/Estepona), and panoramic views can push prices toward the top end.
Can non-EU citizens buy property in Estepona?
Yes—there are no restrictions on non-EU buyers. You’ll need to obtain a Spanish NIE number (foreigner ID), open a Spanish bank account, and appoint a solicitor (abogado) to handle legal due diligence, contracts, and conveyancing.
What additional costs should I budget for besides the purchase price?
- Transfer tax (ITP) for resale homes: 8%–10% of purchase price
- VAT (IVA) on new builds: 10% of purchase price
Stamp duty (AJD): ~1% - Notary, land registry & gestoría fees: ~1%–2%
- Legal fees: ~1%–1.5%
- Annual costs: IBI (council tax), community fees (if applicable), utilities
Is financing available?
Spanish banks typically lend up to 70 % of the purchase price to non-resident buyers (sometimes 80 % for EU citizens). Mortgage terms of 20–25 years are common; interest rates vary with the Euribor benchmark.
What are typical community fees?
For developments with shared facilities (pools, gardens, gyms), expect €60 – €200 per month, depending on amenities and property size.
What’s the buying timeline?
From making an offer to getting keys in hand typically takes 6–10 weeks, assuming financing and paperwork proceed smoothly.
Any tips for first-time buyers?
- Visit in different seasons to gauge climate and community.
- Budget a 10 % contingency for unexpected costs.
- Hire an independent lawyer (abogado) to review contracts.
- Consider resale potential—properties with sea views and proximity to golf often hold value best.
What are the best places to buy properties on the Costa del Sol?
From the luxury villas of Marbella and the marina-side glamour of Puerto Banús, to the charming old town of Estepona and the family-friendly beaches of Mijas Costa (with strong rental yields), plus the tranquil, value-priced hillside villages of Benahavís, Casares, Sotogrande and Manilva.
