About Centro, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the purchase costs 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. 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 are worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents a loan-to-value of 60–70%, meaning a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish banks generally range between 3.5% and 4.5% per annum, though rates vary by lender and applicant profile. We recommend speaking with an independent mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property finance.
What are the estimated running costs?
Community fees for this development have not yet been confirmed. IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse collection charge) figures are not yet available as the building is newly constructed. Once the development is registered and occupied, the local authority will issue these annual charges. We recommend budgeting for these once figures are available from the developer.
How can I arrange a viewing?
You can book an in-person viewing through OceanHome at a time that suits you. If you are based outside Spain, we also offer video viewings, where one of our agents walks through the property and the communal areas with you in real time via video call. Contact us to arrange either option.
What is the rental potential of this apartment?
Torrevieja is an established tourist destination on the Costa Blanca with consistent short-term rental demand throughout the summer months and a growing winter rental market. A one-bedroom apartment with a private terrace and communal pool is a practical choice for holiday lettings. Before marketing the property as a short-term rental, you will need to register for a tourist licence with the Valencian Community authorities. We can refer you to a local property manager familiar with local licensing requirements.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number for foreigners), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, you pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market, followed by a formal private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) in which a further deposit is paid — typically 10% of the purchase price in total. The remaining balance is paid on completion at the notary, where the title deed (escritura) is signed and ownership is transferred. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to act on your behalf throughout.
