About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom apartment with a full renovation in Rincón de la Victoria, Costa del Sol East, Costa del Sol. This 245-square-metre townhouse-style property spans three floors and centres on a living-dining room with a closed fireplace and wooden parquet flooring that extends through the main entertaining spaces. The separate kitchen connects to a dedicated laundry room, whilst a guest toilet serves the ground level.
Across the upper two floors you'll find four double bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, with the layout offering clear separation between sleeping quarters and daytime living areas. The property includes one allocated parking space and benefits from its 1999 construction, which provides ceiling heights and room proportions typical of that era. Recent renovation works have updated key areas throughout, though the exact scope of finishes varies by room.
The property sits in La Cala del Moral, a residential pocket of Rincón de la Victoria positioned 600 metres from the beach. The A-7 motorway lies one kilometre away, connecting you to Málaga city centre in under 20 minutes by car. Local amenities, including shops and restaurants, cluster within walking distance along the coastal strip that runs between Torre de Benagalbón and the town centre.

Buying this apartment in Costa del Sol East
Can foreigners buy property in Rincón de la Victoria?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Rincón de la Victoria. 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 Rincón de la Victoria?
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.
