About Playa del Cura, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What purchase costs should I budget for 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 EUR 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. On top of ITP, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for notary fees, EUR 400–800 for land registry fees, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for legal fees.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
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 rates from Spanish lenders sit broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though your rate will depend on your financial profile and the lender. It is advisable to obtain a mortgage offer in principle before making a formal offer on the property.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
The annual IBI (local property tax) is EUR 324. Community fees are currently EUR 0 per month. There is no basura (rubbish collection) charge on record; the agent can confirm the current position. Utility contracts for water and electricity are arranged directly with suppliers on completion.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Torrevieja?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you, so you can tour the apartment in real time without travelling. In-person viewings in Playa del Cura are also available by appointment.
Is this apartment suitable as a rental property?
Torrevieja is a tourist municipality, and Playa del Cura's position directly on the beach makes it well suited to short-term holiday rentals. To let legally in the Valencian Community, you must register for a tourist licence (Vivienda de Uso Turístico) with the regional authority before advertising the property. The agent can point you towards a local lawyer who handles licence applications.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which your lawyer can apply for on your behalf. Once you agree terms, a reservation contract and fee (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) takes the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point around 10% of the price is paid, with the balance settled at the notary on the day of completion when the title deed (escritura) is signed. The full process from reservation to completion typically takes 4–10 weeks for a resale.
