About Centro, Villajoyosa
Villajoyosa is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the purchase costs for this new-build penthouse?
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 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 non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price, so you would normally need a deposit of 30–40%. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish banks are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though the exact rate depends on your financial profile and the lender. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in cross-border purchases.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this development are currently zero. IBI (annual council tax) figures are not yet available, as this is a new-build property and the rateable value has not yet been assigned. Rubbish collection charges are also to be confirmed. Your solicitor can verify these figures once the development is fully registered with the local council.
How can I arrange a viewing?
You can book an in-person viewing through our OceanHome team. If you are unable to travel to Villajoyosa, we also offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call, so you can walk through the property with one of our agents remotely before committing to a visit.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Centro, Villajoyosa is a tourist area with demand for short-stay rentals, particularly during the summer months when the town's beaches, old quarter, and local festivals draw significant visitor numbers. A fifth-floor position in a complex with a communal pool is generally attractive to holiday tenants. You will need a tourist rental licence from the Generalitat Valenciana before letting the property; your solicitor can advise on the application process.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can obtain on your behalf. Once you have agreed to proceed, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit is typically paid. The balance is settled at the notary, where the title deed (escritura) is signed and ownership is formally transferred. Registering the deed with the Land Registry completes the process.
