Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for a new-build apartment in the Valencian Community?
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 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 obtain a Spanish mortgage, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Interest rates for non-resident mortgages currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and product. Speaking to an independent mortgage broker familiar with the Spanish market is advisable before committing.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently zero. IBI (annual council tax) and basura (refuse collection charge) figures are not yet confirmed for this new-build development; your agent can provide estimates once these are assessed by the local authority. It is worth budgeting for both when planning your annual holding costs.
Can I view the apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome offers video viewings for buyers who cannot visit in person. A member of the team can conduct a live video walkthrough of the development and the surrounding area at a time that suits you. In-person viewings in Torrevieja can be arranged with 24 to 48 hours' notice.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
Torrevieja Centre is a popular tourist area with strong seasonal demand, particularly from May to October. Short-term holiday letting is common in this neighbourhood. You will need to obtain a tourist licence from the Valencian Community authorities before advertising the property for rent. Your solicitor or agent can advise on the application process and current local regulations.
What is the buying process for this property?
The typical process begins with obtaining an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all Spanish property transactions. Once you agree a price, 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), at which point a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and keys are handed over. Appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before you sign anything is strongly recommended.
