About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom finca with private pool in Costa del Sol East, Comares, Costa del Sol. This two-level country estate sits on 31,000sqm of productive land in a quiet green valley where the sound of the river carries through most of the year. The property includes a registered main house on the upper level and a separate guest annex below, each with its own swimming pool: a full-size main pool and a smaller plunge pool for the lower unit.
The main house offers 113sqm of built space across two floors, with four bedrooms and two bathrooms distributed between the upper residence and lower guest quarters. A 50sqm terrace extends the living area outdoors, while three private wells supply water to the property, supported by over 100,000 litres of on-site storage. The finca comes part-furnished and includes one parking space, plus large garages and outbuildings that could serve as workshop or studio space. An established orange orchard covers a section of the plot, alongside additional citrus and fruit trees, a productive olive grove, and a sizeable vegetable garden.
The property lies in the Comares countryside, a white village perched in the Axarquía hills roughly 40 minutes north of Torre del Mar and the coast. The village itself sits 3km away along a winding rural road, while Málaga airport is approximately 50 minutes by car. The terrain surrounding the finca supports year-round cultivation, with the river audible from the terraces during wetter months and the orange harvest typically running from December through spring.

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