About La Mata, 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. Notary fees typically run EUR 600–1,200 and land registry fees EUR 400–800. Legal representation usually costs around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the Valencian Community's conditions — for example, age, large-family or disability status, or purchasing a primary residence — and are worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders generally range between 3.5% and 4.5%, though individual offers vary by lender, term, and applicant profile. A mortgage broker familiar with the Spanish market can help you compare products.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently €0 per month. The annual IBI (local property tax) figure is not available at the time of listing and should be requested from the agent or confirmed with the Torrevieja town hall before exchange. The basura (refuse collection) charge is also not listed and should be verified separately.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. In addition to in-person viewings, we offer video viewings by appointment, allowing you to walk through the property live with an agent via video call. Contact us to book either option at a time that suits you.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
La Mata Pueblo falls within a tourist rental zone on the Costa Blanca. Short-term holiday lets are permitted subject to obtaining a Valencian Community tourist rental licence and meeting habitability requirements. The area attracts visitors across a long summer season given its proximity to La Mata beach. We recommend speaking with a local lawyer to confirm current licensing conditions before purchase.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for any property transaction in Spain. Once a price is agreed, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by the arras contract, where typically 10% of the purchase price is paid and the completion date fixed. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the title deed signed. Your solicitor will then register the purchase at the land registry.
