Frequently Asked Questions
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 is EUR 13,499 on this apartment. Additional costs include notary fees (approximately EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (approximately EUR 400–800), and legal/conveyancing fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (roughly EUR 1,350 plus VAT). In total, budget for approximately 12–13% on top of the EUR 134,990 asking price.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend up to 60–70% of the purchase price to non-resident buyers, meaning you would need a deposit of 30–40%, which on EUR 134,990 equates to roughly EUR 40,500–53,996. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain generally range from 3.5% to 4.5% annually, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers who work with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are recorded as EUR 0 per month for this property. Annual IBI (council tax) and basura (refuse collection) figures are not currently available and should be requested from the vendor or confirmed with the local town hall before exchange. We recommend budgeting for both costs as part of your annual ownership expenses.
Can I view the property remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings via WhatsApp or video call for buyers who cannot travel to Torrevieja immediately. Contact us to arrange a live walkthrough with one of our local agents. In-person viewings in Playa del Cura can also be scheduled at a time that suits you.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday letting?
Torrevieja is a designated tourist area with strong summer demand, and ground-floor apartments with pool access are popular with short-term renters. To let legally, you must obtain a Tourist Rental Licence (Vivienda de Uso Turístico) from the Generalitat Valenciana before listing on platforms such as Airbnb or Booking.com. We can point you towards specialist legal advisers who handle the licensing process.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained in Spain or via a Spanish consulate in your home country. Once you agree a price, a reservation deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) secures the property and takes it off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where a further deposit of around 10% is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the balance and all associated taxes and fees are settled, and the title deed (escritura) is signed.
