About Centro, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the estimated purchase costs on top of the asking price?
For a resale property in Alicante province, the main tax is ITP (Impuesto de Transmisiones Patrimoniales) at 10% of the purchase price, which on EUR 190,000 amounts to EUR 19,000. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800) and legal fees of around 1% plus VAT, so approximately EUR 1,900 plus VAT. Budget for total acquisition costs of roughly 12–13% above the purchase price.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend up to 60–70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is required. On EUR 190,000, that translates to a deposit of approximately EUR 57,000–76,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though terms vary by lender and your financial profile.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are EUR 360 per year (EUR 30 per month). Annual IBI (council tax) figures were not confirmed at the time of listing; your solicitor can obtain the exact figure from the Torrevieja town hall before exchange. Basura (refuse collection charge) was also unavailable and should be verified. Allow for standard utility connection costs if the property has been vacant.
Can I view this property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you. This is a good way to assess the layout and condition of the apartment before committing to a visit. In-person viewings in Torrevieja can typically be arranged with 24–48 hours' notice.
What is the rental potential for this apartment?
Torrevieja is a popular destination for both summer and winter tourists, particularly from Northern Europe, and the town has an established long-term rental market as well. A 4-bedroom apartment in Centro is relatively unusual and may appeal to larger families or groups. To let it as a holiday rental, you will need a tourist licence (licencia de alquiler turístico) from the Generalitat Valenciana. We recommend speaking to a local letting agent for realistic occupancy and income estimates.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
First, you will need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you agree a price, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras), at which point around 10% of the price is paid. The balance is settled at the notary on the completion date, when the title deeds (escritura) are signed and keys are handed over.
