Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
As a resale property 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 the region's conditions, for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — worth checking before you budget. On top of ITP, allow approximately EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal representation.
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, whichever is lower, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though your personal rate will depend on your financial profile and lender. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers experienced with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees for this apartment are nil. Annual IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse collection) figures are not confirmed at the time of listing — please ask the agent to verify these before exchange. Buildings insurance for the communal structure is typically included within any community charge, but contents cover for the interior would be a separate personal policy.
Can I view this apartment remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel to Torrevieja immediately. We can walk through every room in real time and answer questions as we go. In-person viewings can be arranged on weekdays and most weekends with advance notice.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
Centro is one of Torrevieja's most in-demand locations for short-term holiday lets, given its walkable distance to the seafront, Paseo Vistalegre and town-centre amenities. The apartment is sold furnished and ready to let. A tourist rental licence is required in the Valencian Community; eligibility depends on the building's statutes and the property meeting regional habitation standards. We recommend taking local legal advice on licensing before committing to a rental strategy.
What does the purchase process look like in Spain?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all property transactions in Spain. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation contract and a holding deposit take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price changes hands. The transaction completes before a notary, at which point the balance is paid, taxes are settled and keys are handed over. The full process from reservation to completion usually takes six to ten weeks.
