FAQ
Is buying off-plan in Benahavis safe?
Yes. All deposits are protected by legally required bank guarantees, meaning your funds are secure even if the developer fails to complete construction. In addition, every new home includes a ten-year structural warranty and is built under Spain’s strict planning and quality standards. This makes off-plan property one of the safest ways to buy in the Benahavis area.
What is the typical payment structure?
Usually, you’ll pay a small reservation fee to secure your chosen property, followed by around 30% on signing formal contracts, typically within 30 days of reservation. The remaining 70% is paid on completion once the property is finished and ready for handover. This staged approach allows you to manage cash flow more easily while construction progresses and gives time for mortgage approval if required.
Can foreign buyers purchase in Spain?
Absolutely. The process is well established for international clients, and NuSun Realty assists throughout, from obtaining a Spanish NIE number to setting up a local bank account and coordinating with legal and financial partners. Most transactions can even be completed remotely until completion day.
Can I get a mortgage to buy an off-plan property in Spain?
Yes. Many international buyers use a Spanish mortgage to finance off-plan purchases. Most banks will issue formal approval once 50–70% of the development is complete, with a typical loan-to-value (LTV) of up to 70%. NuSun Realty works closely with specialist mortgage brokers who handle this process for overseas clients.
Can I make design changes or customise my property?
In most cases, yes. Developers often allow buyers to select finishes such as flooring, kitchen styles, and bathroom fittings, especially in the early stages of construction. Structural changes are less common but can sometimes be arranged for villas. Buying early gives you the greatest flexibility to personalise your home.
What are the main costs involved when buying off-plan?
Alongside the property price, you should allow for around 10–13% in purchase costs. This includes taxes, legal fees, and notary expenses. If you’re buying off-plan, VAT replaces the standard resale tax. Your NuSun Realty advisor can outline the full cost breakdown before reservation.
