Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 330,000 asking price?
As this is a new-build property, you pay IVA at 10% instead of transfer tax (ITP), which equals EUR 33,000. Notary fees typically run EUR 600 to EUR 1,200, land registry fees EUR 400 to EUR 800, and independent legal representation usually costs around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, so approximately EUR 3,630 including VAT. In total, budget for around EUR 38,000 to EUR 39,000 in buying costs on top of the price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60-70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, meaning a deposit of 30-40% is usually required. On EUR 330,000 that equates to roughly EUR 99,000 to EUR 132,000. Variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% annually. We can refer you to a Spanish mortgage broker if needed.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are currently registered at EUR 0. The IBI (council tax) has not yet been assessed, as this is a new-build, but once the property is registered it will be set by Torrevieja town hall based on the cadastral value. Utility connection costs and the basura (waste collection) charge have not yet been confirmed. We recommend budgeting conservatively until these figures are formalised.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call at a time convenient to you. For new-build properties we can also walk you through CGIs, floor plans and any show unit. In-person viewings in Los Balcones can be arranged 7 days a week with advance notice.
Is this property suitable for short-term rental?
Los Balcones is in the Torrevieja municipality, which is a tourist area with demand for summer rentals from June to September. To let legally on a short-term basis in the Valencian Community you need a tourist rental licence (Vivienda de Uso Turístico). We recommend consulting a local lawyer before purchasing with rental income in mind, as Torrevieja town hall applies specific zoning and licensing rules.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, you obtain a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which is required to complete any Spanish property purchase. Once you have agreed the price, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit, typically EUR 3,000 to EUR 6,000, is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato privado) where usually 10% of the price is paid. Finally, the sale is completed before a notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled. The full process typically takes 4 to 12 weeks for new-builds depending on the build stage.
