Questions fréquentes
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a resale property in the Valencia Community (Alicante province), you will pay ITP (transfer tax) at 10% of the purchase price, which is EUR 35,000 on this property. Additional costs include notary fees (approximately EUR 600–1,200), Land Registry fees (approximately EUR 400–800), and legal fees of around 1% plus VAT (approximately EUR 3,570 plus VAT). Budget for total purchase costs of roughly 12–13% on top of the price.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, so you should expect to provide a deposit of around 30–40%. On EUR 350,000, that means having at least EUR 105,000–140,000 available, plus your purchase costs. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs?
The IBI (council tax) is EUR 478 per year and community fees are EUR 128 per month (EUR 1,536 per year). You should also allow for utility contracts (water, electricity) once ownership transfers. There is no basura (waste collection) figure currently held on file; the agent can confirm this amount on request.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or your preferred video call platform if you are unable to travel to Torrevieja in person. An in-person viewing can be scheduled with advance notice through our Torrevieja office.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Torrevieja is a designated tourist municipality and Playa de los Locos, as a named beach neighbourhood, attracts strong visitor demand from June through September. To let the property short-term legally, you will need to register for a tourist licence through the Generalitat Valenciana. Our agent can advise on the current application process and local management options.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for any property purchase in Spain. Once you agree terms, a reservation contract and deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where usually 10% of the price is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes, and fees are settled and the title deeds are signed over to you.
