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 registration, and 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) — worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price, so you should plan for a deposit of 30–40%. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can introduce you to independent mortgage brokers who work with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are estimated at 100 EUR per month and annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at 390 EUR per year. Both figures are provisional because the development is new build and the final amounts may differ once the community is formally constituted. There is no confirmed basura (waste collection) charge in the listing data at present — please ask the agent for the latest figure.
Can I view the apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you, so you can walk through the property with an agent without travelling first. In-person viewings at Seascape Resort, Finestrat, can be booked on request once you have completed an initial remote viewing if you prefer.
Is this apartment suitable for short-term holiday rental?
Finestrat and the wider Benidorm coastal area attract strong tourist demand throughout the year, and new-build apartments on gated resorts with communal pools are popular with short-term renters. To let the property as a holiday rental you will need a tourist licence from the Valencian Community. We recommend taking independent legal advice on rental regulations and community rules before purchasing with a rental strategy in mind.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
First, obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for any property transaction in Spain. Once you have agreed a price, you sign a reservation contract and pay a holding deposit to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, who formalises the title deed (escritura). Your solicitor handles due diligence, coordinates with the developer, and registers the title at the Land Registry on your behalf.
