Buying property in Estepona

Buying property in Spain involves several legal and financial steps. International buyers generally require an NIE number and should budget for taxes, notary fees, registration costs and independent legal advice alongside the agreed purchase price.

Before purchasing a property, buyers should verify legal ownership, planning permissions, community regulations and any outstanding financial obligations. Working with an experienced estate agency together with an independent lawyer helps ensure a smooth purchasing process.
