Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase taxes and costs should I budget for?
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 assessed 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), and it is worth checking before you budget. On top of ITP, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry registration, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal fees.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain typically need a deposit of between 30% and 40% of the purchase price, as Spanish lenders generally finance up to 60–70% for non-residents. Current fixed and variable rates for Spanish mortgages broadly range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though your own bank terms will depend on your financial profile and chosen lender. It is advisable to obtain a mortgage agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees for this property are listed at nil, which is notably low compared with many complexes in the area. The annual IBI (municipal property tax) figure is not currently held in the listing record, so please ask the agent for the most recent receipt from the seller. There may also be a separate annual rubbish collection charge (basura), which the agent can confirm.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can organise a video viewing if you are unable to visit in person. We conduct live video walkthroughs via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you. In-person viewings can also be arranged through the agent; please contact us to book.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental investment?
La Siesta is a primarily residential neighbourhood with a stable long-term rental market driven by workers and year-round residents in Torrevieja. Short-term tourist lets are possible but this area attracts less seasonal demand than beachfront zones. Any rental income will depend on the licence obtained, the finish of the property, and local market conditions at the time. We recommend speaking to a local letting agent for a realistic income assessment.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, obtain your NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for any property purchase in Spain. Once an offer is agreed, a reservation contract is typically signed along with a holding deposit. This is followed by the arras contract, a formal preliminary agreement under which the buyer pays a further deposit, normally around 10% of the purchase price. Completion then takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance is paid and title transfers to the buyer. Engaging an independent Spanish solicitor before the reservation stage is strongly recommended.
