Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 549,900 asking price?
As this is a new-build property, IVA applies at 10% rather than the resale ITP rate. That amounts to EUR 54,990. You should also allow approximately EUR 600 to EUR 1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400 to EUR 800 for land registry registration, and around 1% plus VAT (approximately EUR 6,600) for legal representation. In total, budget for roughly 12-13% above the purchase price to cover all acquisition costs.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60-70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, meaning a deposit of 30-40% is generally required. On EUR 549,900 that equates to roughly EUR 165,000 to EUR 220,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents are broadly in the 3.5-4.5% range, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees are EUR 0 per year, as there is no owners' community associated with the property. Annual IBI (local property tax) figures are not yet available for this new build and should be confirmed with Orihuela town hall before exchanging contracts. Basura (waste collection) charges are also unconfirmed at this stage and should be verified with the agent.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a video viewing of the property so you can assess the build quality, layout, and surrounding plot before committing to travel. Remote viewings are available by appointment. If you would prefer an in-person visit, Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 35 minutes away, with direct flights from many UK and European airports.
Is there rental potential for this villa?
Desamparados is primarily a permanent-residency area rather than a short-term tourist rental market. Long-term rental demand exists from families and workers based in or around Orihuela. If you are considering the property as a rental investment, we recommend discussing local demand and licensing requirements with the agent before proceeding.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained through a Spanish consulate in the UK or via a solicitor in Spain under power of attorney. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation fee is typically paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) in which a further deposit, usually 10%, is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on the completion date, when keys are handed over and the title deed is signed.
