Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a resale in the Valencian Community, this purchase carries ITP transfer tax at 9% of the purchase price, rising to 11% on the entire value above €1,000,000. Note that tax is charged on the higher of the price paid and the property's official reference value, so treat any figure based on the asking price as a minimum. 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 — so it is worth checking before you budget. Additional costs typically include notary fees (EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800) and legal fees at around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is generally required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though individual offers depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers who specialise in Spanish property finance.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees for this property are nil. Annual IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse collection) charges were not provided by the vendor; we recommend requesting official confirmation of these figures before you proceed. The villa's energy performance certificate is rated D.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to visit in person. A member of our team can walk you through the property, the communal areas and the surrounding streets via a live video call. Contact us to arrange a time that suits you, or to book an in-person viewing at Lo Marabú.
Is this villa suitable as a rental investment?
Lo Marabú is a residential urbanisation within the municipality of Rojales on the Costa Blanca, which has an established market for both long-term and holiday rentals. A private pool, rooftop solarium and communal pools add to the property's appeal to rental tenants. To let the villa as a holiday rental in the Valencian Community you must obtain a tourist licence from the regional authority. We recommend taking specialist advice on licensing requirements and local rental demand before committing to an investment strategy.
What does the purchase process involve?
To buy property in Spain you first need an NIE number, which is the Spanish tax identification number for foreigners and can be obtained at a consulate or in Spain with a lawyer's help. Once you agree a price, a reservation deposit is typically paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), under which a further deposit — commonly 10% of the agreed price — is paid. The transaction is then completed before a notary, at which point the balance and all taxes and fees are settled and the title deeds are signed. Using an independent Spanish property lawyer throughout this process is strongly recommended.
