Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs for this apartment?
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. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and solicitor fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the Valencian Community's conditions — for example, age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and are worth checking before you budget.
Can I get a mortgage to buy this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers in Spain typically need a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price, as Spanish banks generally lend up to 60–70% to non-residents. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range broadly between 3.5% and 4.5%, though your own rate will depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property finance.
What are the ongoing costs of owning this apartment?
The annual IBI (local property tax) is €186. Community fees are €432 per year, covering maintenance of the communal areas of the residential block. These figures come from the listing record. You should also budget for home insurance and any utility standing charges.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to travel to Torrevieja at short notice. Our agents can conduct a live video walkthrough of the apartment via WhatsApp or your preferred video platform. In-person viewings are available by appointment.
Is this apartment suitable for holiday rental?
Torrevieja, and Playa del Cura in particular, attracts consistent holiday demand from UK, northern European and domestic Spanish visitors throughout the year. Buyers interested in short-term rental should note that a tourist licence is required in the Valencian Community. We are not able to guarantee rental yields, but we can connect you with local rental management agencies who can provide realistic occupancy and income estimates based on comparable properties in the neighbourhood.
What is the process for buying a property in Spain?
The purchase typically begins with obtaining a Spanish NIE number (tax identification number), which is required for all property transactions. Once you have agreed on a price, a reservation agreement is signed and a small deposit (usually around €3,000–€6,000) is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), at which point a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The sale is completed before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled. The title deed is then registered at the Land Registry. The full process typically takes 6–10 weeks from reservation to completion.
