About La Siesta, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the purchase costs on top of the sale 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 — worth checking before you budget. Additional buying costs typically include notary fees (EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800), and solicitor fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers can typically access Spanish mortgages, though lenders generally require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. Variable and fixed interest rates currently range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and your financial profile. We recommend obtaining a mortgage agreement in principle before making an offer.
What are the annual running costs for this villa?
The annual IBI (council tax) is 294 euros and the annual rubbish collection charge is 124 euros. There are no community fees for this property. Utility costs are reduced by the installed solar panels, which cover a substantial portion of electricity consumption through much of the year.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to Torrevieja immediately. These can be arranged via video call at a time that suits you, and our agent can walk through every room and the outdoor areas including the pool and roof terrace. In-person viewings can be scheduled at short notice for those already in the area.
Does this property have tourist rental potential?
Torrevieja is a licensed tourist rental area with consistent demand from spring through to autumn, and the La Siesta location is popular with holiday visitors seeking a private villa with a pool. You would need to obtain a tourist licence from the Generalitat Valenciana before renting short-term. We recommend confirming current licensing conditions with your solicitor, as rules are subject to change. Gross rental yield figures vary and we do not provide estimated percentages.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need to obtain a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which your solicitor can arrange. Once you agree a price, a reservation deposit is typically paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The balance is paid at the notary on completion, when ownership is formally transferred and the deed is signed. The process from reservation to completion generally takes four to ten weeks for a resale property.
