Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 214,000 asking price?
As a resale property in the Valencia Community (Alicante province), you pay ITP (transfer tax) at 10% of the purchase price, which is EUR 21,400. Additional costs include notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal/conveyancing fees of around 1% plus VAT (approximately EUR 2,140 + VAT). Total acquisition costs typically add 12–14% to the purchase price, so budget around EUR 240,000–245,000 all in.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower. On EUR 214,000 that means a deposit of roughly EUR 64,200–85,600 before costs. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range. We can introduce you to an independent mortgage broker who works with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are currently recorded as EUR 0 per year and buyers should verify the final figure once the urbanisation's administrator has confirmed the budget. IBI (local property tax) has not yet been assigned by the Orihuela cadastre and the vendor can provide an estimated figure on request. Utility contracts for electricity and water will need to be set up in the buyer's name on completion.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you. We can walk through each floor, the solarium, garden and communal areas in real time and answer questions as we go. In-person viewings can be arranged with 24 hours' notice.
Is this property suitable for short-term holiday rental?
Rocío del Mar is within the Orihuela Costa tourist zone, where demand for short-term summer rentals is consistent. To let the property legally on a short-term basis, you will need a tourist licence (licencia turística) from the Generalitat Valenciana. We can advise on the application process. We do not quote yield figures as these depend on occupancy rates, management costs and local regulation, which change over time.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) from a Spanish consulate or via a local gestor, as this is required for any property transaction. Once you agree terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by the arras contract, where both parties commit formally and you pay roughly 10% of the price. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is paid and keys are handed over. The whole process from reservation to completion typically takes 6–10 weeks.
