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, budget roughly EUR 600–1,200 for the notary, EUR 400–800 for land registry, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal fees. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the Valencian Community'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.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer in Spain?
Non-resident buyers can typically access Spanish mortgages, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Variable and fixed rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, depending on the lender and your financial profile. A Spanish mortgage broker familiar with non-resident applications can help you compare options.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently zero. IBI (annual council tax) and basura (waste collection charge) figures are not yet confirmed for this new-build development — your agent can request these from the developer as they become available. As a third-floor unit in a small nine-property complex, general maintenance costs tend to be modest.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment, which can be arranged at a time that suits you. We can walk through the development, the communal areas and any show unit or CGI walkthroughs the developer has provided. In-person viewings in Playa Muchavista can also be arranged, and the development is around 35 minutes from Alicante-Elche Airport.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Playa Muchavista has a well-established short-term rental market, with demand concentrated from June to September and a secondary shoulder season around Easter. New builds in the Valencian Community require a tourist licence to let legally on a short-term basis. Your legal adviser can confirm the current licensing requirements and conditions in El Campello before you commit.
What does the purchase process look like for this property?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all Spanish property transactions. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de arras), at which point a further payment — typically 10% of the purchase price less the reservation — is made. The transaction is completed before a notary, at which point the balance is paid, taxes are settled and the title deed is signed. The deed is then registered at the land registry.
