About Centro, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond 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 (typically EUR 600–1,200), land-registry fees (typically EUR 400–800) and legal fees (typically 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 — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can put you in touch with an independent mortgage broker who works with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are currently recorded as zero; confirm the final service-charge budget with the developer before completion. Annual IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse) figures are not yet available for this new-build property — ask the agent to obtain these from the town hall or developer. It is sensible to budget for both once they are assessed.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via video call at a time convenient to you, so you can see the unit, the communal areas and the surrounding neighbourhood before travelling. In-person viewings can also be arranged at short notice. Contact the agent to book either option.
What is the rental potential?
Torrevieja is a well-established tourist destination on the Costa Blanca, and Los Frutales is roughly 300 metres from the coast. The area generates consistent holiday-rental demand from spring through to autumn. A local letting agent can advise on achievable occupancy rates and nightly rates for a 2-bedroom penthouse of this size; we recommend obtaining at least two independent rental appraisals before committing to a purchase primarily for investment.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) under which typically 10% of the purchase price is lodged. The balance is paid at the notary on completion, at which point the title deeds are signed and handed over. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to carry out due-diligence checks and guide you through each stage.
