Is La Carihuela suitable for living permanently or as a holiday home?

Torremolinos and La Carihuela are ideal for both. Permanent residents benefit from the direct Cercanías train link to Málaga (20 min) and the airport (around 10 min), year-round amenities and a lively local community. As a holiday home, the rental potential is strong thanks to the long tourist season.

Can I rent out a property in La Carihuela?

Yes. For short-term holiday rentals (Airbnb, Booking) in Andalusia you need an RTA licence, and the community of owners must allow it. As standard, WeSellHomes.es checks before purchase whether the property can be rented out. Long-term rentals are always possible without an additional licence.

What are the purchase costs when buying in La Carihuela?

For resale properties 7% transfer tax (ITP); for new builds 10% VAT (IVA) + 1.2% stamp duty (AJD). Plus notary fees, land registry registration and legal support. Total: 10–12% (resale) or 12–13% (new build) on top of the purchase price. We prepare a transparent breakdown for each property.

IBI (municipal property tax) typically €300–€1,500 per year, community fees for apartments €50–€300 per month, buildings insurance and possibly IRNR for non-residents. We provide a full cost overview for each property.

How does the buying process work, step by step?

Offer → reservation contract (€3,000–€10,000 deposit) → arras contract (10% deposit) → legal due diligence → notarial deed (escritura). On average 6–12 weeks from reservation to handover of the keys. WeSellHomes.es guides you through the whole process in English.

Can I get a mortgage as a foreign buyer for a property in La Carihuela?

Yes. If you are not tax resident in Spain, a Spanish bank will usually finance up to 60–70% of the purchase price. You contribute at least 30–40% from your own funds, plus the additional costs. We arrange a free mortgage check with English-speaking financial advisers.
