What purchase taxes and costs apply to this property?
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% of the purchase price, both set by the autonomous region. ITP does not apply. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically 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 are worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders usually finance up to 60–70% for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though your rate will depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can put you in touch with independent mortgage brokers familiar with this market.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are estimated at EUR 225 per month, covering communal areas, the pool, and the gymnasium. Annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 1,750. Both figures are estimates at this stage of the development and may be confirmed once the community is formally constituted. Utility costs will depend on usage.
How can I arrange a viewing?
You can book an in-person viewing through our Calpe office or request a live video viewing if you are not currently in Spain. Video viewings allow you to tour the development and review finish specifications remotely with one of our agents. Contact us to check availability and confirm a time.
Is this property suitable for short-term holiday rental?
Playa Arenal-Bol is one of Calpe's main tourist areas, with strong summer demand given its proximity to the beach and the Peñón de Ifach. New-build penthouses of this size in the area do attract rental interest. A tourist licence will be required; eligibility and conditions are set by the Valencian Community. We recommend speaking with a local property manager to assess realistic occupancy and rental income before committing.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number), which can be obtained in Spain or via a Spanish consulate abroad. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is typically signed and a reservation deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a larger deposit — often 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The sale is completed before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to act on your behalf throughout.
