Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this new-build apartment?
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. On top of those taxes, budget 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 the region's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage to buy this property?
Spanish lenders generally require non-residents to provide a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, with the remainder financed. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates broadly range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though the rate you receive will depend on your lender, financial profile and the loan term. A Spanish mortgage broker can compare products before you commit.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently nil. Annual IBI (council tax) and basura (waste collection) charges have not yet been confirmed for this new-build unit — ask the agent to request these figures from the developer before exchange. You should also allow for utility connection costs and contents insurance.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a video viewing via video call if you are unable to travel to Torrevieja in person. This allows you to walk through the apartment, the private garden and the communal areas with an agent in real time. In-person viewings can be arranged by appointment.
What is the rental potential for this property?
Torrevieja is an active tourist rental market on the Costa Blanca, and ground-floor units with private gardens can appeal to families seeking holiday lets. A tourist licence is required for short-term rental in the Valencian Community and must be obtained before letting the property commercially. The agent can advise on the licensing process and on local demand for this type of unit in El Limonar.
What is the process for buying this property?
The first practical step is obtaining an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for any Spanish property transaction. Once you agree a price, a reservation contract and deposit typically secure the property while due diligence is carried out. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), in which a further deposit is usually paid, and finally completion before a notary, at which point keys are handed over and the balance of the purchase price and all taxes and fees are settled. An independent Spanish solicitor is strongly recommended throughout.
