Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs 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 €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, budget roughly EUR 600–1,200 for the notary, EUR 400–800 for the land registry, and around 1% plus VAT for legal fees.
Can non-residents get a mortgage to buy this property?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, so you should plan for a deposit of 30–40%. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain broadly range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though the rate you are offered will depend on your lender and financial profile. A mortgage broker with experience in Spanish property can help you compare products before you make an offer.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees for this property are currently nil. The annual IBI (local council tax) figure has not been confirmed — please ask the agent for the latest amount. Additional running costs to factor in include rubbish collection (basura), utilities, and buildings insurance, all of which vary by usage and provider.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. The agent can arrange a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call at a time that suits you, allowing you to walk through the property and ask questions in real time. An in-person viewing can be arranged at short notice once you are in the Torrevieja area.
Is this property suitable for short-term holiday rental?
Torrevieja is a designated tourist municipality, which means short-term rentals are legally permitted subject to obtaining the relevant tourist licence from the Generalitat Valenciana. Demand from summer visitors is consistent, particularly from Spanish, British, and Scandinavian holidaymakers. A ground-floor bungalow with a private terrace is a popular format for couples and small families. The agent can advise on the licensing process and connect you with local management companies if you plan to let the property when you are not using it.
What does the purchase process look like in Spain?
The first step is obtaining a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which is required for any property purchase. Once you agree a price, you typically pay a reservation fee to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) in which a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. The balance is transferred at the notary on completion, at which point the deed (escritura) is signed and ownership passes to you. The whole process from offer to completion commonly takes 4–8 weeks, depending on mortgage requirements and due diligence.
