About Centro, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a resale property in the Valencia Community (Alicante province), the main transfer tax is ITP at 10% of the purchase price, which on EUR 179,900 equals approximately EUR 17,990. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800), and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Budget for total purchase costs of roughly 12–13% on top of the asking price.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Yes, Spanish banks do lend to non-residents. For a property priced at EUR 179,900, most lenders will require a deposit of 30–40%, meaning you would need between EUR 53,970 and EUR 71,960 in cash. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender.
What are the ongoing running costs?
The listing shows community fees of EUR 0 per month, which should be verified with the agent before exchange. Annual IBI (council tax) figures are not available in the current data and must be confirmed directly. There may also be a separate annual basura (refuse) charge levied by the local authority.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange an in-person viewing at a time that suits you, or a live video viewing if you are not currently in Spain. Contact us to book either option.
Is this property suitable as a holiday rental?
Torrevieja is a designated tourist area and properties here can be registered for short-term holiday rental. The central position in Estacion de Autobuses, close to the promenade and local amenities, makes this apartment a reasonable candidate for tourist letting. A rental licence from the Comunitat Valenciana is required before marketing the property for short stays. We recommend speaking to a local property manager for realistic occupancy and income expectations.
How does the purchase process work in Spain?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once a price is agreed, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to take the property off the market. A private purchase contract (arras) follows, at which point 10% of the purchase price is usually transferred. Completion takes place before a notary, who registers the title deed. The full process from reservation to completion typically takes 4–8 weeks.
