Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 279,000 asking price?
As a new-build property, this apartment is subject to IVA (VAT) at 10% rather than ITP transfer tax, which adds EUR 27,900. You should also budget for notary fees (approximately EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (approximately EUR 400–800), and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, which equates to roughly EUR 3,390 including VAT. Total purchase costs are typically 12–13% above the asking price.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident?
Yes, Spanish banks do offer mortgages to non-resident buyers. For a property priced at EUR 279,000, non-residents are typically required to provide a deposit of 30–40%, meaning you would need EUR 83,700–111,600 in available funds. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders generally sit between 3.5% and 4.5% AER, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently listed at EUR 0 per month, though we recommend confirming this figure directly with the developer as the building may not yet have established its owners' community. IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse collection charge) have not yet been assessed for this new-build property; buyers should request an estimate from the local town hall.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for all properties on our books, including this apartment in Playa del Cura. Our agents can conduct a live video walkthrough at a time that suits you, allowing you to assess the layout and communal areas before committing to a visit.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Playa del Cura is a central neighbourhood in Torrevieja, a town with significant summer tourist demand due to its beaches and proximity to the salt lakes. Properties in this area can attract short-term holiday lets during the peak season from June to September. You will need a tourist let licence from the Generalitat Valenciana before renting commercially; our team can advise on the application process.
What does the purchase process involve?
The first step is obtaining an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all Spanish property transactions. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation contract is signed and a deposit, typically EUR 3,000–6,000, is paid to secure the property. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where usually 10% of the price is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed.
