Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about buying a finca near Málaga
Honest answers to the questions international buyers ask most often.
Is the finca legal? What is an AFO?
Many rural homes in Andalusia were once built (partly) without a permit. An AFO (Asimilado Fuera de Ordenación) is the official legalisation declaration issued by the municipality. Before every offer we check the registration, the AFO status and any ongoing proceedings, which is essential for both financing and resale.
Can I extend or renovate on rustic land?
Strict rules apply on suelo rústico: extending or building new is rarely permitted, while renovating within the existing volume usually is. Around the city, the rules are actively enforced. We check the zoning plan for each plot before you buy.
What about water and utilities?
Crucial for every finca: a mains water connection or a private spring/well with registered water rights, the electricity supply and the access road. Around Málaga many properties are connected to the mains, while in the Montes private supply is more common. We routinely have this legally verified.
Can I let my finca near Málaga?
Yes, through a VTAR registration or as a casa rural. The combination of city and nature attracts both tourists and digital nomads, with typical gross yields of 4.5–6.5%. Before purchase we check whether the finca can be registered.
Can I get a mortgage on a finca?
Yes, but banks are more cautious about financing rural property: expect a maximum of 50–60% and stricter valuations, and a regularised (AFO) finca is practically a requirement. WeSellHomes.es arranges a free mortgage check with English-speaking advisers experienced in fincas.
What are the additional costs of buying a finca?
Fincas are almost always resale properties: 7% transfer tax (ITP), plus notary fees, land registry registration and legal assistance. Allow 10–12% in total on top of the purchase price.
Why choose WeSellHomes.es as your finca estate agent?
