About this property

Overview

Valley Views sits on raised ground between La Cala de Mijas and Fuengirola, a position that gives most apartments views across the valley towards the sea and the mountains behind. The homes range from 75 square metres for a two-bedroom apartment to 117 square metres for the larger three-bedroom layouts. All have two bathrooms and a terrace that runs the width of the living space, accessed through full-height glass. The southeast and southwest orientations mean natural light for most of the day. Kitchens come fitted with appliances, and the development includes underground parking and a storage room with each home.

The location puts you between two centres rather than in one. Fuengirola, with its long beach, shops and train station, lies roughly ten minutes by car to the east. La Cala de Mijas, a smaller resort with a beachfront and restaurants, is a similar distance west. The Miramar shopping centre is closer still. You are not in walking distance of any of them. Three golf courses are nearby: Cerrado del Aguila, Chaparral and Mijas Golf. The immediate surroundings are residential, with other gated developments and low-rise housing on similar plots.

The development is gated and has a communal pool and gardens. The layout suits buyers looking for a holiday home or a rental property in a quiet setting with views, but daily life here depends on a car. Families wanting a larger home on this part of the coast will find the three-bedroom layouts give more space than many new apartments, though the two-bathroom count is standard across all sizes.

Valley Views - FASE 1: Frequently Asked Questions

The apartments range from 75 square metres for two bedrooms to 117 square metres for three bedrooms. All have two bathrooms regardless of size, which means the larger layouts offer more living space and bigger bedrooms rather than an extra bathroom. Each apartment includes a terrace that runs the full width of the living area.

No. The nearest beaches are in Fuengirola and La Cala de Mijas, both roughly ten minutes by car. Valley Views sits on raised ground between the two towns, which gives the views but puts you outside walking range of either seafront. This is a development where you need a car for the beach and most other errands.

Each apartment has a private terrace accessed through full-height glass from the living area. The development also has communal gardens and a pool, which are maintained for you. The terraces face southeast or southwest, so you get sun for most of the day and views across the valley.

Very little. The immediate area is residential, with other gated developments and low-rise housing on similar hillside plots. Fuengirola and La Cala de Mijas are both about ten minutes by car, and the Miramar shopping centre is closer but still requires a drive. This is a location for buyers who want quiet and views, not a walkable neighbourhood.

Either, provided you have a car. The three-bedroom layouts are large enough for a permanent home, and the southeast or southwest aspect means good natural light throughout the year. The quiet hillside setting between Fuengirola and La Cala de Mijas also suits lock-up-and-leave use, though you are not close enough to walk to either town for supplies or the beach.

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.
