Frequently Asked Questions
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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees at 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 — and it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain 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 from Spanish lenders generally range between 3.5% and 4.5%, though individual rates depend on your financial profile and chosen lender. We can introduce you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in non-resident applications.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently zero. The annual IBI (local property tax) has not yet been assigned, as the catastro reference is pending; your solicitor can request an estimate from the local authority once the building is registered. A rubbish collection charge (basura) will also apply annually once the property is registered with the Torrevieja town hall.
Can I view the apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings by video call for buyers who cannot travel immediately. These can be arranged at a time to suit your schedule and give you the opportunity to ask questions in real time. In-person viewings at the development are also available and can be arranged through our office.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Centro, Torrevieja attracts both long-term tenants and short-stay visitors due to its central location, proximity to beaches, and established amenities. New-build apartments with communal pools and lift access tend to let well in this area. A tourist rental licence would be required for short-term lets; your solicitor can advise on the current requirements under Valencian Community regulations. We recommend speaking to a local letting agent for realistic occupancy and income estimates before committing.
What steps are involved in the purchase process?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all property transactions in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a larger percentage of the price is typically paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, who registers the transfer. We strongly recommend appointing an independent solicitor before signing any documentation.
