Questions people ask

Are new-build prices shown with VAT?+

No. Developers quote list prices before VAT. On a new home in Andalucía you add 10% VAT and 1.2% stamp duty (AJD), plus notary, registry and lawyer fees. Our buying costs calculator itemises it.

What is the difference between off-plan and key ready?+

Off-plan means buying before or during construction, usually with 30% to 50% paid in stages and the rest at completion. Key ready means the building is finished and you can complete within weeks, paying the full price at the deed.

Is my money protected if I buy off-plan?+

Yes, by law. Spanish developers must guarantee every payment made before completion with a bank guarantee or insurance policy, and hold it in a special account. If the build is not finished or licensed on time, you can recover the money plus legal interest. Ask for an individual guarantee certificate for each payment.

Why might a development I like not appear?+

The finder only shows developments we track and have checked, and it filters on budget and area first. New launches are added as they are announced, so it is worth checking back.
