About this property

Overview

Balance Nova is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Mijas, Costa del Sol, priced from €320,000 to €480,000. This is a 142-unit residential scheme where every ground floor apartment has been designed with direct sea views, an unusual feature at this price point in Mijas Costa. The architecture follows a contemporary Mediterranean approach with clean lines and a deliberate focus on natural light, achieved through south and southwest orientations across the development. Many units include private gardens, and the scale of the project supports a resort-style amenity package typically associated with larger, more expensive developments further west along the coast.

Built sizes range from 76 to 99 m², with all apartments offering two bathrooms regardless of bedroom count. Ground floor units with private gardens provide direct access to outdoor space without the premium typically attached to penthouses. Communal facilities include an outdoor swimming pool with a chill-out area, spa, gym, social club, and a coworking room. The design prioritises the connection between interior and exterior spaces, with functional layouts and materials chosen to suit year-round living rather than holiday use alone. Some units feature terraces up to 110 m² in size, though this applies primarily to penthouses within the development. Private parking is included, and the residential is set within landscaped gardens.

Mijas Costa sits between Fuengirola and Marbella, with Málaga Airport 25 minutes by car via the A-7 coastal motorway. The area attracts a mix of permanent residents and second-home buyers, many from Northern Europe, who value proximity to the coast without the density or price levels of Marbella. The new Great Park of the Costa del Sol, a large-scale green space and leisure project, is within a short drive and adds long-term infrastructure value to the area. Golf courses including Miraflores and La Cala are nearby. Mijas Costa is less walkable than a traditional Spanish town centre, and most daily errands require a car, but this is reflected in the pricing and the type of buyer the area serves.

Balance Nova is currently under construction, with completion expected in phases. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the unit, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the balance due on completion and key handover. All payment schedules and amounts must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended, particularly for buyers unfamiliar with Spanish property law and off-plan purchase contracts. Ground floor apartments with sea views and private gardens are typically among the first units to sell in developments of this type, so availability should be confirmed early in the sales process.

Balance Nova: Frequently Asked Questions

Balance Nova prices range from €320,000 to €480,000 depending on the apartment size and configuration. All units include a private garage, and you'll get either a private garden or access to communal pool facilities. The exact inclusions depend on which floor plan you choose, so it's worth checking the specific unit details with your agent.

Balance Nova is situated in Mijas on the Costa del Sol, one of Spain's most sought-after coastal areas. The location gives you easy access to local amenities, beaches, and the wider Costa del Sol infrastructure. Being ground floor apartments, the units benefit from direct access to outdoor spaces and the surrounding neighbourhood.

Balance Nova offers 2 and 3-bedroom ground floor apartments ranging from 76 to 99 square metres in built size. The 2-bedroom units are at the smaller end of that range, while the 3-bedroom options give you more space. Each apartment is designed as a ground floor unit, so you get direct access to your private garden or patio area.

Yes, sea views are a key feature of Balance Nova apartments. The ground floor location combined with the Mijas coastal setting means many units benefit from views towards the sea. The exact view quality depends on the specific unit and its orientation within the development.

Balance Nova is expected to be completed in September 2028. This gives you a clear timeline for when you can take possession of your ground floor apartment. If you're looking to purchase off-plan, this completion date is important for your investment planning.

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.
