Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new-build property in the Comunitat Valenciana, you pay IVA at 10% (EUR 30,990) rather than the resale transfer tax. Additional costs include notary fees of EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and solicitor fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (roughly EUR 3,099 plus VAT). Budget for total purchase costs of around 12–13% on top of EUR 309,900.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers can typically obtain a mortgage on a Spanish property, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. On EUR 309,900 that means having between EUR 92,970 and EUR 123,960 available as a deposit. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish banks are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though your individual rate will depend on your financial profile and the lender.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently set at EUR 0 per month. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build; once registered, a figure will be available from the Dolores town hall. There is no basura (refuse collection) figure available at present. You should also account for utility connection costs when the property is first occupied.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome offers video viewings for buyers who cannot visit in person straight away. Contact us to arrange a live video walkthrough of the show unit or the completed property. An in-person visit to Dolores can be combined with viewings of other properties in the Alicante province on the same trip.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
Dolores is primarily a residential town rather than a tourist destination, so short-term holiday rental demand is limited compared with coastal locations. The property may be more suitable as a long-term rental or primary residence. Buyers considering the rental market should check local licensing requirements with a Spanish solicitor before committing.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you agree a price, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point typically 10% of the price is paid. The remaining balance is settled at the notary on completion, when the title deed (escritura) is signed and the keys are handed over.
