Frequently Asked Questions
What are the estimated purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a resale property in Alicante province, this apartment is subject to ITP (transfer tax) at 10% of the purchase price, which amounts to approximately EUR 17,790. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), Land Registry fees (typically EUR 400–800) and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. In total, buyers should budget for approximately 12–13% on top of the EUR 177,900 asking price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage to buy this apartment?
Yes. Spanish banks generally lend up to 60–70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is typically required. Based on a purchase price of EUR 177,900, a non-resident buyer would need roughly EUR 53,000–71,000 as a deposit, plus the purchase costs above. Variable and fixed mortgage rates currently sit in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are EUR 0 per month. Annual IBI (council tax) figures are not currently available from the data provided and should be confirmed directly with the agent or the local Torrevieja town hall. There may also be a separate annual refuse collection charge (basura), which is again to be confirmed. Utility contracts for electricity and water will need to be set up in the buyer's name on completion.
Can I arrange a viewing, and are remote viewings available?
Yes. In-person viewings can be arranged through the OceanHome team at a time that suits you. If you are unable to travel to Spain, we can also organise a live video viewing via WhatsApp or FaceTime, giving you a guided walkthrough of the property in real time.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday letting?
La Mata Pueblo draws a steady stream of visitors between spring and autumn, with demand linked closely to Playa de La Mata 200 metres away. Short-term holiday rental is a realistic option to consider, though a tourist letting licence (licencia de alquiler turístico) issued by the Valencian Community authorities is required before advertising the property on rental platforms. We recommend consulting a local solicitor about current licensing conditions in Torrevieja.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the Spanish tax identification number required for any property purchase. Once you have agreed the price, a reservation contract is signed and a deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by the arras contract, under which the buyer pays around 10% of the purchase price; if the buyer withdraws, this deposit is forfeited, and if the vendor withdraws, they must return double the amount. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled and the title deeds (escritura) are signed.
