About La Siesta, 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. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the Valencian Community'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 for notary fees (typically €600–1,200), land registry fees (typically €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?
Non-resident buyers can typically obtain a mortgage in Spain, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Interest rates for non-residents currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%, depending on the lender and whether you choose a fixed or variable rate. We recommend obtaining a mortgage offer in principle before making an offer on the property.
What are the ongoing running costs?
The annual IBI (council tax) for this property is €177. Community fees are €480 per year, covering maintenance of the communal gardens, pool, and gated access. You should also budget for utilities (electricity, water) and contents insurance. The property has an energy rating of E.
Can I arrange a viewing, and is a remote viewing possible?
Yes, in-person viewings can be arranged through our team at OceanHome. If you are unable to travel, we can also organise a live video viewing so you can tour the property remotely before committing to a visit.
What is the rental potential of this property?
La Siesta and the wider Torrevieja area attract strong seasonal tourist demand, particularly from spring through to early autumn. The Torrealmendros urbanisation's communal pool, gated access, and proximity to the beaches make this townhouse suitable for short-term holiday letting, subject to obtaining the required tourist rental licence from the Valencian Community. We recommend speaking to a local property manager for realistic occupancy and income estimates.
What are the key steps in the purchase process?
First, you will need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate abroad or in person in Spain. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation agreement is signed and a reservation deposit paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where typically 10% of the purchase price is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the balance is transferred and the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered at the land registry. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before you sign anything.
