Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
This is a resale property in the Valencian Community. As such, it carries ITP (Impuesto de Transmisiones Patrimoniales) 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. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the region's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and these are worth checking before you finalise your budget. On top of ITP, allow for 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.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Spanish banks generally lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the property's valuation, meaning you would typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates for non-residents are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though individual offers vary by lender and personal circumstances. We recommend obtaining an agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
Community fees are currently nil, which keeps recurring costs low. The annual IBI (local property tax) figure is not confirmed for this listing and must be verified with Torrevieja town hall before you complete. You should also budget for water, electricity and any buildings or contents insurance you arrange privately.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. In addition to in-person viewings, we offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel immediately. Contact our team to schedule either option at a time that suits you.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
La Siesta attracts both long-term residents and seasonal visitors given its proximity to Torrevieja and the coast. A tourist rental licence from the Comunitat Valenciana is required before letting on a short-term basis, and rules around licensing should be confirmed before purchase. We can put you in touch with a local property manager who can advise on realistic occupancy and rental returns for the area.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which is required for any property transaction. Once you agree a price, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras), at which point typically 10% of the purchase price is paid and both parties commit to the sale. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled and the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered.
