About Benissa Pueblo, Benissa
Benissa is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What purchase costs should I allow for beyond the asking price?
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. On top of tax, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and around 1% plus VAT for a solicitor. 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 — and it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer in Spain?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current mortgage rates for non-residents in Spain generally sit between 3.5% and 4.5%, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker who works with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees are zero, as this is a detached villa with no shared facilities. IBI (local property tax) has not yet been assessed; a figure will be established once the catastro reference is registered after completion. There are no basura (waste collection) figures available at this stage. We recommend requesting an estimate from the local Benissa town hall before exchange.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for all our listings, either as a pre-recorded walkthrough or as a live video call with one of our agents on site. This is a practical first step if you are travelling from outside Spain and want to narrow down your shortlist before visiting Benissa Pueblo in person.
Does this property have rental potential?
Benissa is classified as a tourist municipality under Valencian Community regulations. New-build villas in this area can be licensed for short-term holiday rental, subject to obtaining a tourist licence from the Generalitat Valenciana and meeting the required habitability and access standards. We recommend taking independent legal advice on the licensing process before purchase.
What is the typical purchase process for a property in Spain?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is a Spanish tax identification number required for any property transaction. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid, typically around EUR 3,000–6,000, to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras) where a further deposit, usually 10% of the purchase price, is paid. The remaining balance is settled at the notary on the day of completion, when the title deeds are signed and ownership transfers to you.
