Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs apply to this villa?
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, budget for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal 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 — worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents in Spain are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though your lender's offer will depend on your financial profile and the bank's current terms. A Spanish mortgage broker can help compare products across multiple lenders.
What are the ongoing running costs?
There are no community fees for this development. IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed for this property; a figure will be assigned once the catastral reference is registered. Basura (waste collection) charges have also not yet been set. Your solicitor can provide guidance on expected IBI once the property is registered.
How do I arrange a viewing?
Contact us to book an in-person visit to the Pla de Cantal site. If you are based outside Spain, we can arrange a live video viewing so you can walk through the property and ask questions in real time before committing to travel.
Is this property suitable for short-term rental?
Pla de Cantal's proximity to Benidorm and Altea, both roughly 10–15 minutes away, generates consistent visitor demand in the area. Villas with private pools in this part of the Marina Baixa comarca do attract holiday rental interest, particularly in the summer season. You will need a tourist rental licence from the Valencian Community to let legally on a short-term basis; your solicitor can advise on the application process.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all Spanish property transactions. Once you agree terms, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras) under which typically 10% of the purchase price is exchanged. The balance is paid at completion before a notary, who registers the title deed. We recommend instructing an independent Spanish solicitor before signing any document.
