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 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 this 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, budget for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is generally required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though your actual rate will depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in non-resident lending if you would like an introduction.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are €0 per year for this property. The annual IBI (local council tax) figure is not confirmed in the listing data and should be verified directly with the agent or Torrevieja town hall before exchange. There may also be a separate annual basura (refuse collection) charge; again, confirm the current amount with the agent. Utility bills — water, electricity and internet — will depend on personal usage.
Is it possible to view the property remotely?
Yes. In addition to in-person viewings, we offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call, where one of our agents walks through the property in real time so you can ask questions as they go. To arrange either an in-person or video viewing, contact the OceanHome office and we will coordinate a time that suits you.
Is this apartment suitable for rental investment?
Torrevieja is a recognised tourist destination on the Costa Blanca and properties in central districts such as Estación de Autobuses benefit from good transport links and proximity to amenities, which supports both short-term holiday lets and longer residential tenancies. To let a property short-term in the Valencian Community you will need a tourist licence from the regional government. We recommend speaking to a local property manager about realistic occupancy and income expectations before committing.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, obtain an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) — this is the Spanish tax identification number required for any property transaction. Once you agree a price, a reservation fee is typically paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), under which you pay an agreed deposit, commonly 10% of the price. If the buyer withdraws, the deposit is forfeited; if the seller pulls out, they must return double the deposit. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish property solicitor to guide you through each stage.
