About Centro, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca for international property buyers. With over 300 days of sunshine per year, excellent healthcare facilities, and a large expat community, the area offers an outstanding quality of life.
What purchase costs should I budget for on top of 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. 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. In addition, allow 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?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents mortgages covering 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed rates for non-residents generally range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though terms vary by lender and your financial profile. We recommend obtaining an agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are estimated at EUR 90 per month, covering maintenance of the communal pool, solarium, gardens, and security. Annual IBI (council tax) is estimated at EUR 510. Both figures are estimates and may be subject to revision. You should also allow for utility connections in your monthly budget.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. In addition to in-person viewings, we offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you. Contact our team to schedule either option, and we can also arrange accompanied visits for buyers travelling from outside Spain.
What is the rental potential of this apartment?
Torrevieja is a recognised tourist destination with strong summer demand, and Zona los Frutales attracts both short-term holiday lets and longer-term tenants year-round. Ground-floor apartments with garden access and pool facilities are popular with families. We recommend speaking to a local lettings agent for occupancy data specific to this development before making any projections.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in Spain. Once you agree a price, a reservation fee is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) where typically 10% of the price is paid. The balance is paid at the notary on completion, when the title deed (escritura) is signed and the property is registered in your name. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to oversee the process.
