Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget 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 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 the region's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget. Note that tax is charged on the higher of the price paid and the property's official reference value, so treat any estimate based on the asking price as a minimum.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price, so a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is normally required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from roughly 3.5% to 4.5% per annum, though your rate will depend on your financial profile and chosen lender. We can introduce you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in the Valencian Community.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently nil for this development. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed for this new build and will be confirmed once the property is registered. Basura (refuse) charges are set by Calpe Town Hall and will similarly be confirmed post-completion. We recommend budgeting for utilities, contents insurance, and any property management fee if you plan to let the apartment.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Calpe?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel immediately. We can walk through the show apartment, the communal areas, and the rooftop solarium live, and we can share additional footage of the 17th-floor outlook. On-site visits to Playa Arenal-Bol can be arranged on any day of the week.
What is the rental potential of a 17th-floor penthouse in Playa Arenal-Bol?
Playa Arenal-Bol is one of the most active short-let markets on the Costa Blanca Norte, with strong demand from June through September and a growing shoulder season in April, May, and October. A 225 m2 penthouse on the 17th floor with sea views to the Peñón de Ifach sits at the upper end of Calpe's rental offer. We do not quote specific yield percentages because occupancy depends on management, pricing strategy, and local licensing rules, but we can connect you with a local rental management company for a detailed projection.
What does the purchase process look like step by step?
First, obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) from a Spanish consulate or in Spain — this tax identification number is required for any property transaction. Next, pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market while legal checks are completed. A private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) follows, at which point a further deposit, typically 10% of the purchase price, is paid. On the agreed completion date, the balance is transferred and title passes before a notary, after which the deed is registered at the Land Registry. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before signing anything.
