About La Siesta, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca for international property buyers. With over 300 days of sunshine per year, excellent healthcare facilities, and a large expat community, the area offers an outstanding quality of life.
What are the purchase costs on top of 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 this region's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — worth checking before you budget. Additional costs typically include notary fees (EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (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?
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 mortgage rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though individual offers vary by lender, term and applicant profile. We recommend consulting an independent mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property finance.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Annual IBI (council tax) for this property is €850. There are no community fees, as the villa is a detached property with no shared facilities managed by an owners' community. Utility costs for a villa of this size and age will vary with usage; central heating and air conditioning are installed throughout. The energy rating is G, which is typical for a property of this era.
Can I arrange a viewing, and is a remote option available?
Yes. In-person viewings can be arranged through our Torrevieja team at a time that suits you. If you are based outside Spain, we can also arrange a live video viewing so you can walk through the property remotely before committing to travel. Contact us to book either option.
What is the rental potential of this villa?
Torrevieja is a popular destination for seasonal visitors, and La Siesta attracts longer-stay tenants as well as short-term holiday lets. A five-bedroom villa with a private pool on a large plot is well suited to family groups, which tend to generate stronger occupancy during the peak summer months. A tourist rental licence from the Generalitat Valenciana is required for short-term letting; we can refer you to a local licencing specialist.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number for foreigners), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate in your home country or at a police station in Spain. 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 (arras), under which typically 10% of the price is paid. The sale is then completed before a notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes and fees are settled. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to handle due diligence throughout.
