Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of 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. You should also allow for notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800) and legal/conveyancing fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. 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 — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Spanish lenders typically require non-resident buyers to provide a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, with the remainder financed by mortgage. Variable and fixed rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, depending on the lender and your financial profile. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in non-resident applications.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are currently set at zero for this development. IBI (annual property tax) figures are not yet available as this is a new-build property; the figure will be confirmed once the catastral value is registered. Basura (refuse collection) charges are set by the local council and will apply once the property is registered. We recommend budgeting for these once the completion date is confirmed.
Can I view the property before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to visit in person, including a live walkthrough with one of our agents. We can also arrange an in-person visit to the development and any show units that are open. Contact us to schedule either option at a time that suits you.
Is this property suitable for rental income?
Desamparados is an inland residential area rather than a coastal tourist zone, so short-term holiday rental demand is more limited than on the coast. The property may suit medium- or long-term rental to residents working in Orihuela or the wider Alicante area. If rental income is a priority, we are happy to discuss the local market before you commit.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number) before completing any purchase. The typical process begins with a reservation agreement and a small holding deposit to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) at which a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. For new builds, staged payments during construction are common. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes and fees are settled and the title deed (escritura) is signed. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to act on your behalf throughout.
