About Carrefour, Torrevieja
Carrefour is a residential district in the southern part of Torrevieja, named after the large retail centre on Avenida de los Europeos. The area is predominantly made up of detached and semi-detached villas built between the 1990s and early 2000s, with a mix of Spanish and international residents. Playa del Cura is approximately 1 km to the east, and Parque de las Naciones, one of the larger green spaces in Torrevieja, is within walking distance. Day-to-day shopping and local services are available along Calle Patricio Pérez and the surrounding streets.
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a resale property in Alicante province, you pay ITP (transfer tax) at 10% of the purchase price, which is EUR 18,990 on the asking price of EUR 189,900. Add notary fees of approximately EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to 800, and legal fees of around 1% plus VAT (approximately EUR 2,277 including VAT). Total additional costs are typically 12 to 13% of the purchase price.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend up to 60 to 70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% is usually required. On EUR 189,900 that is roughly EUR 57,000 to EUR 76,000 upfront, excluding purchase costs. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders are approximately 3.5 to 4.5%. Speak to our mortgage partner for a personalised illustration.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 290. Community fees are estimated at approximately EUR 45 per month, or EUR 540 per year. Please note these figures are estimated and should be verified with the vendor and local town hall prior to exchange.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment, which allow you to walk through the property in real time with one of our agents. Contact us to arrange a video call or an in-person visit at a time that suits you.
Is this property suitable for holiday letting?
Torrevieja is an established short-term rental market with strong summer demand from Spanish and international visitors. Properties within 1 km of the beach in the Carrefour area are regularly let during July and August. A tourist rental licence from the Generalitat Valenciana is required before legally advertising the property for short-term lets. We can connect you with a local lettings manager for further guidance.
What is the process for buying a property in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish NIE number, which is a tax identification number obtainable at a local police station or through a solicitor by power of attorney. Once you agree a price, a reservation contract is signed and a deposit of around EUR 3,000 to 6,000 is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where typically 10% of the price is paid. The balance is then transferred at the notary on the completion date, when the title deed (escritura) is signed and keys are handed over.
