About Playa del Cura, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the estimated purchase costs on top of the asking price?
For a resale property in Alicante province, the main tax is Property Transfer Tax (ITP) at 10% of the purchase price, which on EUR 185,000 equals EUR 18,500. Add notary fees of approximately EUR 600 to EUR 1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400 to EUR 800, and solicitor or legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (roughly EUR 2,000 to EUR 2,200). Total additional costs are typically 12 to 13% of the purchase price.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers can generally obtain a mortgage in Spain, though most lenders require a deposit of 30 to 40% of the purchase price. On EUR 185,000 that means having EUR 55,500 to EUR 74,000 available as a deposit. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders typically range from 3.5% to 4.5% per annum, though this varies by lender and applicant profile. We can refer you to independent mortgage brokers active in the Costa Blanca market.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
There are no community fees for this property. Annual IBI (council tax) figures are not currently available and should be confirmed directly with the agent or the Torrevieja town hall. You should also budget for annual home insurance, utility standing charges, and the annual rubbish collection tax (basura), which is typically EUR 100 to EUR 200 per year in Torrevieja.
Can I view the property remotely before visiting in person?
Yes. We offer video viewings by appointment, during which an agent walks through the property live on a video call so you can ask questions in real time. We can also provide additional photographs or floor plan information on request. In-person viewings can be arranged at a time that suits you.
Is this villa suitable for holiday rental?
Torrevieja is a popular coastal destination and properties in the Playa del Cura area attract holiday visitors throughout the year, particularly from spring to autumn. A villa with a private solarium, garden, and parking is a practical choice for short-term letting. You would need to register for a tourist rental licence (Vivienda de Uso Turístico) with the Generalitat Valenciana before listing the property on rental platforms. We recommend consulting a local lawyer to confirm eligibility and current licensing requirements.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your solicitor can apply for on your behalf. Once you have agreed the purchase price, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit, typically EUR 3,000 to EUR 6,000, is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), under which usually 10% of the purchase price is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance, taxes, and fees are settled and the title deed (escritura) is signed and registered.
