About this property

Overview

16+ Collection is a small group of 19 three-bedroom apartments on two floors in the hills above Mijas. Each home has 130 square metres of interior space, laid out as a duplex with three bathrooms. The terraces range from 59 to 119 square metres, and the largest come with private gardens on the ground floor or roof solariums on the upper level. Most units are corner plots, so you get light from two sides and fewer shared walls. The layout is split-level, which gives separation between living and sleeping areas but means stairs throughout the home.

The development sits above the AP-7 motorway, on the mountain side of Mijas. You are eight minutes by car from Playa de Torreblanca, and 29 minutes from Málaga Airport. Mercadona is three minutes away for everyday shopping, and Golf Benalmadena Pitch & Putt is an eight-minute drive. If you have children, there is a Spanish primary school six minutes away and The British College 11 minutes away. This is not a walking neighbourhood. You need a car for the beach, for school runs, and for most errands.

The setting suits buyers who want mountain views and space without living on the beachfront. The trade-off is that you are always driving. The duplex layout and terrace sizes work well for families or for anyone who spends a lot of time at home, but the stairs will not suit everyone. The small number of units means a quiet block, though that also means fewer facilities than larger developments offer.

The area has good everyday amenities nearby: Mercadona supermarket is 3 minutes away, and Golf Benalmadena Pitch & Putt is 8 minutes by car if you play. For families, there's a Spanish primary school 6 minutes away and an international option at The British College in 11 minutes. This location suits buyers who want mountain views and quick beach access without choosing a beachside address.

16+ Collection: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de Torreblanca is 2.9 kilometres away, about eight minutes by car. The development sits in the hills above the AP-7 motorway, so walking to the beach is not practical. You will need a car for the beach, for shopping beyond the nearest supermarket, and for most other journeys.

The living space is split over two floors, with stairs connecting them. This gives separation between the living and sleeping areas, which works well if you want distinct zones in the home. The trade-off is that you climb stairs every day, which may not suit buyers with mobility concerns or very young children.

Each apartment has its own private terrace, ranging from 59 to 119 square metres. The largest come with either a private garden on the ground floor or a roof solarium on the upper level. You are responsible for maintaining your own outdoor space, but you do not share it with other residents.

The British College is 3.9 kilometres away, about 11 minutes by car. Hospital Vithas Xanit International is 4.5 kilometres away, a nine-minute drive. A Spanish primary school is six minutes away. A supermarket is three minutes by car. Nothing is within comfortable walking distance, so families here need a car for school runs and daily errands.

The homes face north-east. Most units are corner plots, so you get natural light from two sides. The orientation means morning sun but less direct heat in the afternoon. The mountain-side setting means views inland rather than out to sea.

Buying off-plan in Mijas 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.
