About La Hoya, 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%. ITP does not apply. On top of those taxes, allow approximately EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal representation. 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 access Spanish mortgages, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Variable and fixed rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and your financial profile. A mortgage broker with Spanish experience can help you compare offers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently €0 per month. IBI (annual property tax) has not yet been assessed for this new-build; the local authority will issue the first bill once the property is registered on the catastro. Basura (refuse collection) charges are also to be confirmed. Budget for utility connections and any garage charges if you purchase a parking space separately.
Can I view this apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel immediately. For new-build developments we can also share developer show-home footage and floor plans. Contact our team to arrange a time that suits you, or to book an in-person visit to El Chaparral.
Is this apartment suitable as a holiday rental investment?
Torrevieja is an established holiday destination on the Costa Blanca with strong summer demand. El Chaparral's proximity to the coast and the development's communal facilities, including the pool and padel court, make it attractive to short-term renters. You will need a tourist licence from the Ajuntament de Torrevieja before renting legally. We can introduce you to local rental management agencies, but we do not quote yield figures without verified local data.
What are the main steps to buying this property?
First, obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) — this is a Spanish tax identification number required for all property transactions and can be arranged at a consulate or in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, you pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) in which you typically pay 10% of the purchase price. The balance is paid at the notary when the title deed (escritura) is signed. For new builds, completion is tied to the construction programme, so ask the developer for the expected handover date.
