What purchase costs should I budget for on top of 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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800), and legal 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 — and it is worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Spanish lenders generally require non-resident buyers to put down 30–40% of the purchase price, with the remainder financed. Variable and fixed mortgage rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and product. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker experienced in non-resident applications.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Estimated annual community fees are EUR 90, covering maintenance of the communal areas, pool, and solarium. Estimated annual IBI (council tax) is EUR 220. Please note both figures are estimated at this stage of the development. Utility bills for electricity and water will depend on personal usage.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Bigastro immediately. Our agents can conduct a live video walkthrough of the show unit or available apartment and answer questions in real time. In-person viewings can be arranged at a time to suit you.
Is there rental potential?
Bigastro is an inland residential town rather than a primary tourist destination, so short-term holiday rental demand is limited. The property may suit medium- to long-term residential letting, given its proximity to Alicante-Elche Airport and the wider Vega Baja employment area. We recommend taking local legal advice on rental licensing requirements before committing to a letting strategy.
What does the purchase process look like?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which we can guide you in obtaining. Once you have chosen your apartment, a reservation agreement and fee secures the unit while due diligence is carried out. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit is typically paid. Completion takes place before a notary, who registers the transfer with the land registry. Having an independent Spanish solicitor review all documentation before you sign is strongly advised.
