Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As this is a new build in Alicante province, VAT (IVA) applies at 10%, which is EUR 39,500 on the asking price of EUR 395,000. Additional costs include stamp duty (AJD) at around 1.5%, notary fees of EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Budget for total purchase costs of roughly 13–14% above the sale price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents a loan-to-value of 60–70%, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is required. On EUR 395,000 that equates to roughly EUR 118,500–158,000. Variable and fixed mortgage rates are currently in the range of 3.5–4.5% depending on the lender and applicant profile. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property finance.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this development are EUR 0 per year. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed as the property is a new build; the figure will be confirmed once the property is registered with the local catastro. Utility contracts for water and electricity will need to be set up in your name on completion.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment, where one of our agents will walk through the property with you live via video call. We can also provide additional photos or floor plan details on request. To arrange an in-person or video viewing, contact our Orihuela office directly.
Is this property in a tourist rental area?
Desamparados-Hurchillo-Torremendo is a primarily residential inland area rather than a designated tourist zone. Short-term holiday rentals are possible subject to obtaining a tourist licence from the Generalitat Valenciana, but demand for short-stay lets in this location is lower than on the coast. It is more suited to long-term residential letting or owner occupation.
How does the purchase process work in Spain?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your lawyer can obtain on your behalf. Once you have agreed the price, a reservation contract is signed and a deposit of around EUR 3,000–6,000 is paid to take the property off the market. A private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) follows, at which point typically 10% of the price is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the keys are handed over. We recommend appointing an independent solicitor before signing anything.
