Frequently Asked Questions
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. 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 — and are worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically access mortgages covering 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders generally range between 3.5% and 4.5%, though terms vary by lender and individual profile. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in non-resident applications.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Annual IBI (local property tax) is estimated at EUR 440. Community fees are estimated at EUR 100 per month, which covers maintenance of the communal pool, gardens, tennis court, and security. Both figures are estimates at this stage. You should also allow for home insurance, utilities, and any applicable rubbish collection charge, which has not been confirmed for this listing.
Can I view the apartment remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel immediately. A member of our team will walk through the property and the complex with you in real time, answer questions, and send follow-up materials. In-person viewings can be arranged with advance notice.
Is this property suitable for holiday letting?
La Siesta benefits from Torrevieja's active short-term rental market, which is driven by its proximity to the coast and good transport links from Alicante-Elche Airport. New-build apartments in complexes with communal facilities tend to attract consistent summer demand. A tourist licence is required in the Valencian Community before letting; we can advise on the application process.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained in person at a consulate or through a representative in Spain. Once you have agreed on terms, a reservation deposit secures the property and takes it off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit — typically 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before committing to any payment.
