About this place
A unique opportunity to acquire a productive tropical fruit estate accompanied by a private residence, located in the heart of the Axarquía region. Measuring a substantial 23,600 m², this estate features nearly 20,000 m² of irrigated tropical crops along with 2,700 m² of rain-fed olive groves.

The main residence spans 182 m², featuring an open-plan ground floor ready for living or social activities, while the upper floor offers a blank canvas awaiting personalisation.

The sale includes two 4x4 vehicles, well-equipped for daily operations on the estate.

Buying property in Spain
Spain welcomes foreign buyers with no nationality restrictions. The buyer needs an NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) before completion, and most buyers open a Spanish bank account to handle the deposit and ongoing charges. An independent lawyer (abogado) is strongly recommended — the notario only checks the deed, not the wider title.
Spain ended its Golden Visa property route in April 2025.
Non-resident mortgages are widely available, typically 60–70% LTV.
Non-resident sellers face a 3% withholding from the sale price (retención), claimable against capital gains tax.
Always check community-of-owners (comunidad) debts and outstanding IBI before completion — they transfer with the property.
General guidance only — confirm specifics with a qualified local lawyer or tax adviser. Reference
