What purchase taxes and costs apply to this apartment?
As a new build in the Valencian Community, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.4%. ITP does not apply. In addition, budget for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and solicitor fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet this region's conditions (for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence) — worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-resident buyers a loan-to-value ratio of 60–70%, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish banks generally range between 3.5% and 4.5%, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are estimated at EUR 100 per month. Annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 340. These figures are estimates and may be subject to change. There is no basura (rubbish collection) fee confirmed for this listing — ask the agent for clarification.
How do I arrange a viewing?
You can book an in-person viewing by contacting our team directly. If you are based outside Spain, we also offer video viewings, allowing you to tour the property remotely before committing to travel.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
The southern Costa Blanca attracts consistent tourist demand, and properties in Benijofar and Pueblo 4 are frequently let on a short-term basis. A valid tourist rental licence is required in the Valencian Community. Rental income will depend on the season, occupancy rates and the management arrangement you choose — speak to a local letting agent for realistic projections.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for any property purchase in Spain. Once you agree a price, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point a larger deposit, typically 10% of the purchase price, is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the keys are handed over. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to guide you through each stage.
