About La Veleta, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a resale property in the Valencia Community (Alicante province), you will pay ITP (transfer tax) at 10% of the purchase price, which amounts to EUR 29,500 on this property. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800) and legal/conveyancing fees of around 1% plus VAT, approximately EUR 2,950 plus VAT. Budget for total purchase costs of roughly 12–13% above the asking price.
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. On EUR 295,000 that means having EUR 88,500–118,000 available. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5%. We can introduce you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in non-resident applications.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently EUR 0 per month. IBI (annual property tax) and basura (refuse collection charge) figures are not confirmed at time of listing; please ask the agent for the latest figures from the town hall. These are the main recurring costs for an owner-occupier, alongside utilities such as electricity and water.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call so you can see the property in detail before committing to travel. Contact us to arrange a live walk-through with one of our agents in La Veleta, or to book an in-person visit at a time that suits you.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Torrevieja is a tourist municipality on the Costa Blanca, and properties close to the sea in areas such as La Veleta can attract short-term holiday rental demand during the summer months. You would need a valid tourist rental licence from the Generalitat Valenciana before letting commercially. Our team can advise on the licence application process and connect you with a local rental management company.
What does the purchase process involve?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (foreigner identification number), which is required for all property transactions. Once you have agreed a price, a reservation deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where around 10% of the price is exchanged. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes and fees are paid and the title deeds are signed over to you.
