Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this property?
As a new build, IVA at 10% applies rather than ITP, giving a tax liability of EUR 115,000 on the EUR 1,150,000 price. Additional costs include notary fees of EUR 600 to EUR 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to EUR 800, and solicitor fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Budget around 12 to 13% on top of the asking price to cover all purchase costs.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish banks typically lend up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is required. On EUR 1,150,000 that equates to a deposit of approximately EUR 345,000 to EUR 460,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the 3.5% to 4.5% range, though rates vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs?
No IBI (local property tax) figure or community fee has been confirmed by the developer for this new-build development. We recommend asking our agent for the latest figures before exchange. Additional annual costs to factor in include rubbish collection (basura) and building insurance.
Can I view this property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Calpe immediately. Contact our team to arrange a live video tour of the development and show apartment, or to request any additional photography or floor plans.
Does this property have rental potential?
Playa Arenal-Bol is one of Calpe's most active tourist areas, with strong demand for short-term holiday rentals during the summer season. A penthouse on the 17th floor with sea views is likely to attract premium rental interest. You will need a tourist licence (licencia de alquiler turístico) from the Valencian Community to rent legally on short-term platforms. Speak to our team for guidance on the licensing process.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. The process then moves to a reservation agreement and payment of a reservation fee, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) where typically 10% of the price is paid. For new builds, stage payments during construction are common. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is paid and keys are handed over.
