About Aguas Nuevas 1, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
For a resale property in Alicante province, you pay ITP (transfer tax) at 10% of the purchase price, which is EUR 17,990 on EUR 179,900. Additional costs include notary fees (approximately EUR 600-1,200), land registry fees (approximately EUR 400-800), and legal fees of around 1% plus VAT (approximately EUR 2,155 including VAT). Total purchase costs are typically 12-13% on top of the price, so budget around EUR 22,000-24,000.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60-70% of the purchase price, so you would need a deposit of 30-40%, which is approximately EUR 53,970-71,960 on EUR 179,900. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from roughly 3.5% to 4.5%. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker who works with non-resident buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
The annual IBI (council tax) is EUR 167. Community fees are EUR 45 per month (EUR 540 per year), covering communal pool maintenance and upkeep of the gated urbanisation. Utility contracts for electricity and water are separate and depend on usage. There is no basura (waste collection) figure currently available; please ask the agent for clarification.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot visit in person straight away. We can walk through the property live and answer questions in real time. In-person viewings in Aguas Nuevas 1 can be arranged at short notice; contact us to confirm availability.
What is the rental potential for this bungalow?
Torrevieja is a popular coastal destination with demand for both long-term and short-term holiday rentals throughout the year. A 2-bedroom ground-floor bungalow in a gated community with a pool in Aguas Nuevas 1 is a common rental profile in the area. For short-term tourist lettings, you would need a valid tourist licence from the Comunitat Valenciana. We recommend speaking to a local letting agent for current market rental figures.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), obtainable at a Spanish consulate or in Spain. Once you agree a price, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit (typically EUR 3,000-6,000) is paid to remove the property from the market. A private purchase contract (arras) follows, at which point around 10% of the price is paid. Both parties then sign before a Spanish notary to complete the transfer, settling the remaining balance, taxes, and fees on the day.
