What are the purchase costs for this new-build penthouse?
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 those taxes, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land-registry fees, and around 1% of the purchase price 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) — worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents 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 for non-residents are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though individual offers vary. Your solicitor or a Spanish mortgage broker can advise on which lenders work with buyers from your country of residence.
What are the estimated running costs?
Community fees are estimated at EUR 175 per month, covering maintenance of the pool, gymnasium, tennis court, lift and shared areas. The annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 970. Both figures are estimates and may change once the development is formally registered. Utility bills are additional and will depend on usage.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing at a time that suits you, allowing you to walk through the apartment and ask questions in real time. A recorded video tour can also be requested. Contact the agent to schedule either option.
Is there rental potential in Playa Arenal-Bol?
Playa Arenal-Bol is one of Calpe's busiest tourist zones, with demand for holiday lets running from Easter through to October. A 15th-floor penthouse with panoramic views and access to communal facilities tends to attract strong summer interest. You will need a tourist licence from the Valencian Community authorities before letting; your solicitor can advise on the application process.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you agree a price, a reservation contract and deposit take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras) in which a larger deposit — typically 10% — is paid. On new builds, stage payments may apply during construction. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is paid and title transfers to you.
