About El Raso, Guardamar del Segura
Guardamar Del Segura is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
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% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply. In addition, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for Land Registry fees, and approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for a solicitor. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the region'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?
Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile. Your solicitor or a Spanish mortgage broker can help compare products before you commit.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently zero, which is an advantage over comparable new-build apartments in El Raso. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed for this property; ask the agent for an estimate based on the catastral value once assigned. Basura (refuse collection) charges have not been confirmed either — again, the agent can advise once the property is registered with the local authority.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing at a time that suits you, allowing you to walk through the apartment and ask questions in real time. If you would prefer an in-person visit, the development is around 35 minutes from Alicante-Elche Airport, so a short trip is straightforward to arrange.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
El Raso and Guardamar Del Segura attract both long-term residents and seasonal visitors, which means there is demand for short-term rentals. A tourist rental licence is required in the Valencian Community for any short-let activity; the application process involves meeting specific habitability standards. Your solicitor can confirm whether this unit qualifies and assist with the licence application.
What steps are involved in buying a property in Spain?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is your Spanish tax identification number. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation deposit — typically around EUR 3,000–6,000 — takes the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) where a further deposit, commonly 10% of the purchase price, is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance and taxes are settled. Engaging a solicitor independent of the developer is strongly recommended for new-build purchases.
