About this property

Overview

Camarate Hills Fase II comprises 36 apartments split across two and three bedroom layouts, ranging from 86 square metres to 108 square metres. The ground floor units come with private gardens, while the upper apartments have larger terraces that extend from 8 to 97 square metres. Each home includes a garage space and storage room. The communal facilities include a swimming pool, gardens and a children's playground within a gated community.

The setting sits between the AP-7 motorway and the Mediterranean, which means immediate access to the motorway network and walking distance to the beach. The Sierra Bermeja Nature Park lies close by, and the coast here remains less built up than Marbella or Fuengirola further east. You can reach Estepona and Manilva on the coast or drive inland to Gaucín and Genalguacil. The proximity to Gibraltar Airport makes this practical for frequent flyers or second home owners who arrive by air.

The layouts work for buyers who want a coastal base without the immediate density of a beach town. The ground floor apartments suit those who prefer direct garden access, while the upper floors deliver wider sea and mountain views across the terraces. The gated community and children's playground make this suitable for families, though the motorway on one side and the need for a car to reach shops means this is not a pedestrian neighbourhood.

The drawback is the reliance on driving for daily tasks. Mercadona sits 11 minutes away by car, and Casares town itself is not within walking range. This suits buyers who plan to use a car regularly and value the trade between beach proximity and motorway access over being able to walk to amenities.

Camarate Hills FASE II: Frequently Asked Questions

The beach is 1.2 kilometres away, about seven minutes by car. The development description mentions walking distance to the Mediterranean, which at that range is feasible for some buyers, though the route crosses between the motorway and the coast so check the actual path before assuming a comfortable daily walk.

Ground floor apartments come with private gardens, while upper floor units have terraces ranging from 8 to 97 square metres. The communal areas include a pool and gardens that all residents share, so you maintain your own terrace or garden but not the wider grounds.

The development offers sea, beach, garden, pool and panoramic views, with the upper floors delivering wider sea and mountain outlooks across the terraces. The position between the motorway and the coast means aspect varies by floor and block, so the specific view depends on which apartment you choose.

Gibraltar Airport sits 30 kilometres away, about 44 minutes by car. That makes this practical for second home owners arriving by air or anyone who flies frequently, and it avoids the longer drive to Málaga Airport that most Costa del Sol properties require.

The beach is within walking range at 1.2 kilometres, and the Sierra Bermeja Nature Park lies close by. Shops, supermarkets and Casares town itself require a car, with Mercadona 11 minutes away, so this suits buyers who plan to drive for daily errands rather than those wanting a pedestrian neighbourhood.

Buying off-plan in Casares means reserving a property before or during construction. You pay a reservation deposit (typically €6,000 to €12,000), then sign a private purchase contract within 30 days and pay a further 10 to 20% of the purchase price. Staged payments follow the construction milestones. The final 60 to 70% is paid at notary completion when the keys are handed over.

Under Spanish law (Law 57/1968 and its 2015 successor), all off-plan deposits must be covered by a bank guarantee or insurance policy. Your lawyer must verify this before you pay any money. If the developer fails to deliver, you can claim 100% of your deposit plus 6% annual interest. Never transfer funds without a confirmed guarantee in your name.

Spanish law mandates three tiers: a 10-year structural guarantee (Seguro Decenal) for serious structural defects, a 3-year guarantee for habitability issues (waterproofing, insulation, installations), and a 1-year guarantee on finishes and fixtures. These run from the date the licence of first occupation (licencia de primera ocupación) is issued.

New-build purchases are subject to 10% IVA (VAT) on the purchase price, plus 1.2% AJD (stamp duty) in Andalucía. Parking spaces or storage sold separately may attract 21% IVA. Add notary, land registry and legal fees (1 to 2%), budget 12 to 15% on top of the purchase price in total acquisition costs.

Most developers allow personalisation during the early construction phase, choices of floor tiles, kitchen units, bathroom fixtures, paint colours and sometimes layout tweaks. The window for changes is typically 3 to 6 months after signing the contract. Structural changes are rarely possible once work has started. Your sales representative will provide a customisation deadline and specification sheet.

Typical build time in coastal Spain is 18 to 30 months from licence grant to completion. Delays of 3 to 6 months are common due to weather, supply-chain or permit issues. Your contract should specify a longstop completion date and the compensation you are owed for any overrun. Always check whether the building licence has already been granted before reserving.

Key due-diligence points: (1) confirm the building licence is granted, not just applied for; (2) verify all deposits are bank-guaranteed in your name; (3) check the developer's track record and financial standing; (4) review the specification sheet and what is included in the price; (5) confirm the estimated completion date and longstop clause; (6) have an independent Spanish lawyer review the contract before you sign anything.

Yes, both are required before the final notary signing. You can reserve with a passport, but your Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) is needed for the private purchase contract and your Spanish bank account for the staged transfers. Your lawyer can obtain your NIE with a power of attorney in 2 to 4 weeks. Open the bank account on your first trip to Spain or remotely via certain Spanish banks.

Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-residents at typical LTVs of 60 to 70% of the lower of purchase price or valuation (vs 80% for residents). Rates are competitive with the rest of the eurozone. You will need 6 months of bank statements, tax returns and proof of income, pre-approval takes 2 to 4 weeks.

Recommended for serious buyers. A mortgage in principle confirms your budget, signals credibility to sellers and shortens completion. We can introduce you to specialist non-resident mortgage brokers familiar with the local market.

Resale property in Andalucía: ITP (transfer tax) at 7%. New-build: 10% IVA + 1.2% AJD (stamp duty). Plus notary, land registry and legal fees of roughly 1 to 2%. Budget 10 to 13% on top of the asking price for total acquisition costs.

Annual IBI (council tax) is typically 0.4 to 1.1% of cadastral value. Community fees on apartments and gated villas range €100 to €600/month depending on amenities. Non-resident owners pay an annual income tax based on cadastral value, plus utilities and home insurance.

In Spain the seller pays the agent commission (typically 3 to 6% + VAT), already baked into the asking price. Buyers do not pay agent fees on resale or new-build.
