About Centro, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
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. In addition, budget for notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees (typically 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 I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers in Spain typically require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders usually finance up to 60–70% for non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though individual offers vary by lender and applicant profile. We recommend speaking to an independent mortgage broker familiar with Spanish lending requirements.
What are the ongoing running costs?
There are no community fees for this property. The annual IBI (local property tax) figure is not currently available and should be confirmed with the agent before exchange. Utility costs for water, electricity, and internet will depend on usage and chosen providers.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. In addition to in-person viewings, we offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who are unable to travel to Torrevieja immediately. Contact us to arrange a time that suits you.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
Centro is one of the most in-demand rental locations in Torrevieja due to its walkable access to shops, restaurants, the seafront promenade, and public transport. The two included parking spaces add practical appeal for tenants. A tourist rental licence from the Valencian Community would be required for short-term holiday letting; your solicitor can advise on the application process and current regional requirements.
What are the key steps in the purchase process?
First, obtain your NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) from a Spanish consulate or in Spain — this is required for any property purchase. Once you agree on terms, a reservation agreement and deposit are signed to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), typically accompanied by a 10% deposit. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is paid and keys are handed over. We strongly recommend instructing an independent Spanish solicitor to carry out due diligence throughout.
