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%. 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 in Spain typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders generally finance up to 60–70% of the value for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, though individual offers depend on your financial profile and the lender. We recommend obtaining a mortgage agreement in principle before reserving.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are estimated at EUR 155 per month, covering the communal pool, gardens and gymnasium. The annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 490. These figures are estimates and may vary once the development is fully registered. There is no confirmed basura (rubbish collection) charge in the current listing data — ask the agent for the latest figure.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Torrevieja immediately. Contact us to arrange a live video call walkthrough of the penthouse and the communal areas. In-person viewings can be arranged once you are in the area, including at weekends by prior appointment.
Is this penthouse suitable as a rental investment?
El Limonar and the wider Torrevieja area attract both summer tourists and longer-term winter residents, which means demand for rental accommodation runs across much of the year. A top-floor unit with sea views and a solarium tends to attract stronger short-term rental interest than lower-floor equivalents. To let legally on a short-term basis, you will need to register for a tourist licence through the Valencian Community's regional tourism authority. We can advise on the application process.
What does the purchase process look like?
First, obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for any property transaction in Spain and can be arranged at a Spanish consulate or in person at a local police station with a lawyer's help. 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), where typically 10% of the purchase price is exchanged. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled and the title deed (escritura) is signed.
