Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this apartment?
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%, set by the Valencian Community. ITP does not apply. Notary fees typically run EUR 600–1,200 and land registry fees EUR 400–800. Budget 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 — so worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-resident buyers up to 60–70% of the purchase price, so a deposit of 30–40% is usual. Variable and fixed rates on euro mortgages currently sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though lenders' offers vary. You will also need to factor purchase costs on top of your deposit.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently nil — confirm this with the developer before exchange, as this can change once the development is fully occupied. IBI (annual council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build; the figure will be confirmed by the local authority after the property is registered. No basura (waste collection) figure is available at this stage.
How do I arrange a viewing?
Contact the OceanHome team to book an in-person visit to the Dolores development. Remote video viewings are also available if you are not yet in Spain, allowing you to walk through the show apartment or completed units with an agent in real time.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Dolores is primarily a residential town rather than a tourist destination, so short-term holiday lets are less common here than in coastal resorts. The apartment may suit medium- or long-term rental to local tenants or workers based near Alicante-Elche Airport, which is 35 minutes away. Speak to a local letting agent for current market rental levels before committing.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for any property purchase in Spain — your solicitor can apply on your behalf. A reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) at which a further staged payment is typically made. For new builds, remaining payments are often staged to construction milestones. The transaction completes before a notary, who registers the title in the Land Registry.
