About this property

Overview

Atalaya Emotion - KEY READY is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Estepona, Costa del Sol, priced from €720,000 to €767,000. This is the final plot in the established Atalaya area, positioned at the junction where Marbella, Benahavís and Estepona meet. Only three units remain, all completed and sold fully furnished, which removes the typical 18 to 24-month wait associated with off-plan purchases on this coast. The development is designed by Ismael Mérida and delivered by a European developer with a multi-decade track record in the region.

Built sizes range from 92 to 121 m² across the two and three-bedroom layouts, each with two bathrooms. All apartments are ground floor units with private gardens and extensive terraces, positioned on elevated plots within a gated community. Specification includes underfloor heating throughout, an aerothermal heating and cooling system, fully fitted kitchens and bathrooms, and double orientation for cross-ventilation and natural light. Communal facilities include a heated swimming pool, jacuzzis, a gymnasium, landscaped gardens, and a yoga lake. Underground parking is referenced in the supplier material but not confirmed as standard or optional. Buyers can personalise interior materials and finishes, and furniture packages are available for those seeking a turnkey solution.

Atalaya sits inland from the coast, roughly 4 kilometres from the beach and a 12-minute drive to Puerto Banús marina. The area attracts a mix of northern European second-home buyers and year-round residents, many drawn by the concentration of golf courses within a five-kilometre radius, including Atalaya Golf & Country Club directly adjacent. This is not a beachfront location, but road access to the AP-7 motorway is straightforward, and Estepona town centre is approximately 10 minutes by car. The neighbourhood is residential rather than commercial, with a small selection of restaurants and convenience shops within walking distance. Marbella's Golden Mile is 15 minutes east along the coast road.

These three apartments are completed and available for immediate occupation. Spanish new build transactions typically require a reservation deposit to secure the unit, followed by exchange of contracts and payment of the balance on completion, though in this case the developer has already reached the handover stage. Buyers should instruct independent Spanish legal representation to conduct due diligence on community fees, ongoing developer warranties, and the status of the first occupation licence. The fully furnished offering means no additional lead time for interior fit-out, which can be useful for buyers intending to generate rental income from the 2025 summer season.

Atalaya Emotion - KEY READY is expected to be completed and ready for key handover on November 30, 2025. This means you can plan your move to the Costa del Sol with a clear timeline in mind.

Buying off-plan in Estepona 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.
