About this property

Overview

Residencial Cala de Mijas comprises 16 semi-detached houses spread across three levels, each with three bedrooms and two bathrooms over 205 square metres of built space. The layout runs from a basement level up through ground and first floors, giving vertical separation between living and sleeping areas. The 31 square metres of terrace space works for outdoor dining but not for large gatherings. Plot sizes range from 70 to 240 square metres, so the smallest plots leave little usable garden once the footprint is accounted for, while the larger ones give proper outdoor room. Houses come with either private or communal pool access, a garden, and parking.

The development sits above the AP-7 motorway on the inland side, towards the mountains rather than the sea. That position means you hear motorway noise if you are outside when the wind carries it up the slope. The upside is lower density than the coastal strip and easier access to the airport, 45 minutes away by car, which matters if you travel often or rent the property out. La Cala de Mijas centre, with its beaches and restaurants, is a few minutes by car. ALDI is six minutes away for shopping. You need a car for everything.

The location suits buyers who want a base on the Costa del Sol without living in a beachfront block, and who value proximity to golf courses and the airport over being able to walk to the sea. Families with children will find space here, though the roads around are busy and the area lacks pavements in places. The gated community setup provides security and maintenance, but the trade-off is less flexibility and higher running costs than a standalone house. This is not for anyone who dislikes driving or who wants the beach at the end of the street.

Residencial Cala de Mijas: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de La Cala is 3.3 kilometres away, about seven minutes by car. The development sits inland of the AP-7 motorway, closer to the mountains than the coast, so walking to the beach is not practical. You will drive to the sea every time.

Plots range from 70 to 240 square metres. The smallest plots leave minimal garden once the house footprint takes up most of the space, so outdoor living relies on the terrace. Larger plots give you proper garden area around the building.

Some houses have private pools, others share communal pool facilities. A private pool gives you control over when and how you use it but adds maintenance and running costs. Communal access means lower upkeep responsibility but less flexibility on use.

You need a car for everything. The nearest supermarket is 2.7 kilometres away, La Cala centre is further, and the roads around lack pavements in places. Mijas is not a place where you walk to amenities.

The houses have panoramic views and pool views. Sitting inland and above the motorway means you look out towards the mountains and across the development rather than down to the 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.
