About this property

Overview

SAVIA FASE II offers three-bedroom semi-detached villas in Mijas, each with two bathrooms and 124 square metres of built space. The layout includes a fully equipped kitchen and a private garden. The homes share walls with one neighbour, so you gain outdoor space and communal facilities without the maintenance of a detached villa, but you sacrifice the privacy that comes with four separate walls.

The development sits inland from the coast, facing a pine forest on the edge of Mijas. The beaches lie ten minutes away by car, and Málaga Airport is twenty minutes along the motorway. The new Costa del Sol Park, a public green space with gardens and leisure facilities, is 800 metres from the site. You will need a car for most errands, but the road connections are direct and the motorway is close.

Communal facilities include a swimming pool with a chill-out area, a gym, a co-working space and a social club. These turn the development into a small resort, which suits buyers who want organised spaces to meet neighbours and work from home without leaving the grounds. The trade-off is that you share these spaces with everyone else, and a quiet week by the pool is not guaranteed in high season.

The villas suit buyers looking for a permanent base or a long-stay holiday home in a managed community. The semi-detached format keeps the footprint smaller than a detached villa, but the layout still gives each household its own front door and garden. Families and remote workers will find the facilities useful. Beach lovers may find the inland position and the drive to the sea a compromise.

SAVIA FASE II: Frequently Asked Questions

Each villa has 124 square metres of built space, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The layout includes a private garden and a fully equipped kitchen. All the villas in this phase are the same size, so you choose by plot position rather than floorplan.

The development has a communal swimming pool with a chill-out area, shared by all the villas. There are no private pools. The communal setup means no maintenance cost or responsibility for you, but it also means sharing the pool with neighbours during busy periods.

Facilities include a swimming pool with a chill-out area, a gym, a co-working space and a social club. The co-working space suits remote workers who want a desk and wifi without leaving the grounds. The social club gives residents a place to meet neighbours, which matters more in an inland development where you cannot walk to a town centre.

The beaches are ten minutes away by car. The development sits inland, facing a pine forest, so you will not walk to the sea. The motorway gives direct access to the coast, but you need a car for every beach visit.

The villas suit either use, but the facilities lean towards year-round living. The co-working space and social club work best when you spend months rather than weeks here. The inland position in Mijas means you live in a quieter setting than the beachfront towns, which appeals to permanent residents and long-stay buyers more than it does to two-week holidaymakers.

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.
