How we help you in La Cala de Mijas

Full due diligence

Land Registry (nota simple), debts and charges, IBI, community fees, planning status and licences checked before you pay a cent.

Contracts that protect you

We draft or review the reservation and the private purchase contract (arras), with clear deadlines and deposit protection.

NIE, bank & mortgage

NIE numbers, Spanish bank account and coordination with your bank or broker if you need a mortgage.

Notary completion

We prepare and attend the signing of the title deed (escritura) — in person with you, or on your behalf with power of attorney.

Taxes & registration

Transfer tax or VAT, notary and Land Registry, change of utilities and IBI into your name.

Selling your property

Plusvalía, the 3% non-resident retention, capital gains, mortgage cancellation and everything the buyer's lawyer will ask for.

Buying or selling in La Cala: what we check

Village vs. urbanisation

Older village homes often have extensions or roof terraces that were never registered. Urbanisation properties come with community statutes and fees. We check both before you sign the private contract.

Golf and hillside developments

On La Cala Golf, Calanova and La Cala Hills we verify the first-occupation licence or declaration, any pending community works and whether the plot, pool and parking are correctly registered.

Selling in La Cala

We prepare the energy certificate, plusvalía calculation, community and IBI certificates and, for non-residents, the 3% retention — so your sale goes through without last-minute delays.

What does buying cost in Andalusia?

As a rule of thumb, budget 10–12% on top of the price for a resale purchase. Selling as a non-resident? The buyer must withhold 3% of the price on account of your capital gains tax, which we help you reclaim if it exceeds what you owe.
