About this property
Overview
One-bedroom apartment with mountain views in Nueva Andalucía, Costa del Sol. This third-floor flat in the quiet El Rodeo neighbourhood offers 63 square metres of bright living space across an open-plan layout, with two private balconies that frame uninterrupted views of the surrounding sierra.
Inside, the apartment includes a living-dining area, a separate kitchen, one full bathroom, and a bedroom with direct balcony access. The 10-square-metre terrace extends the usable space outdoors. Built in 1999 and maintained in excellent condition, the property comes fully furnished and includes one allocated parking space. The third-floor position ensures natural light throughout the day without requiring a lift climb, while the mountain aspect keeps the interior cool during summer months.
The apartment sits within Locrimar I, a low-density residential complex with communal gardens and a swimming pool shared among residents. Puerto Banús marina lies 2.5 kilometres south, reachable in under five minutes by car, placing the shops, restaurants and nightlife of the port within easy reach. The beach at Playa de Nueva Andalucía is 1.3 kilometres away. Real Club Pádel Marbella operates within walking distance, and the golf courses that define this part of Marbella spread out across the valley to the north and west.

Buying this apartment in Nueva Andalucía
Can foreigners buy property in Nueva Andalucía?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Nueva Andalucía. You will need a Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) before signing the title deed, plus a Spanish bank account for the transfer. The full purchase typically completes 6 to 10 weeks from signing the reservation contract.
What is an NIE and how do I get one?
The NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is your Spanish tax ID and is mandatory for buying property, opening a bank account or paying taxes. You can apply at a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person in Spain. Your lawyer can also obtain it on your behalf with a power of attorney, typically 2 to 4 weeks.
Do I need a Spanish lawyer?
Strongly recommended. An independent lawyer (abogado), separate from the agent and seller, verifies title, checks for debts and planning issues, drafts contracts and represents you at the notary. Typical fee is 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, with a minimum around €1,500.
How long does completion take?
From accepted offer to keys: 6 to 10 weeks for a resale, 30 to 45 days from reservation if no mortgage is needed. New-build off-plan completes when the development is delivered, often 18 to 36 months after reservation, with staged payments along the way.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in Nueva Andalucía?
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.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
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.
Are agent fees paid by the buyer or seller?
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.
Can non-residents get a Spanish mortgage?
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.
Should I get pre-approval before viewing?
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.
