Frequently Asked Questions
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% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply. Additional costs include 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 the Valencian Community's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and it is worth checking before you budget.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically require non-residents to provide a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, with current variable and fixed mortgage rates broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%. A formal mortgage offer will depend on your financial profile and the lender's current criteria.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Estimated community fees are EUR 100 per month, covering maintenance of communal areas including the pool and lift. Annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 420. Both figures are estimates. There is no confirmed basura (refuse) charge on file; ask the agent for the current amount.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange an in-person viewing at a time that suits you, or a live video viewing if you are not currently in Spain. Contact us to confirm availability and book a slot.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Centro, Torrevieja benefits from year-round visitor demand driven by the nearby salt lagoons and beaches. Ground-floor apartments with communal pools and parking are popular with short-term renters. You will need a tourist rental licence from the Valencian Community authority; your legal adviser can guide you through the application process.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which your lawyer can obtain on your behalf. Once an offer is agreed, a reservation fee is typically paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point a further deposit is usually paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance and all associated taxes and fees become due. Engaging an independent Spanish solicitor before making any payment is strongly recommended.
