About Torretas, Torrevieja
Torrevieja is one of the most popular destinations on Spain's Costa Blanca.
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a resale property in Alicante province, you will pay ITP (transfer tax) at 10% of the purchase price, which amounts to EUR 13,990 on this villa. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (EUR 400–800), and legal fees of approximately 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, so roughly EUR 1,399 plus VAT. In total, budget for around 12–13% on top of the asking price to cover all acquisition costs.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers can obtain a Spanish mortgage, though lenders typically require a deposit of 30–40% of the purchase price. On EUR 139,900, that means having EUR 41,970–55,960 available as a deposit. Current variable and fixed rates with Spanish banks generally sit between 3.5% and 4.5%. We can connect you with an independent mortgage broker who works with non-resident buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
The annual IBI (council tax) is EUR 120. There are no community fees, as this is an independent villa. Utility contracts for water and electricity are set up in the owner's name directly with the relevant suppliers. As a guide, utility costs for a property of this size used as a holiday home are typically modest.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to visit in person. A member of our team will walk through the property with you via video call, covering all rooms and the garden. Contact us to schedule either a remote video viewing or an in-person visit at a time that suits you.
Is this property suitable for holiday rental?
Torrevieja is a designated tourist area, and properties here can be registered for holiday rental through the Generalitat Valenciana's tourist licence scheme. A villa in Torretas with a private south-facing garden and no community fees can appeal to short-stay visitors. Rental income will depend on the condition of the property, its furnishing, and the periods it is made available. We recommend speaking to a local property manager for realistic occupancy figures.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE number, which is required for any property purchase and can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in Spain. Once you have agreed on the price, a reservation deposit (typically EUR 3,000–6,000) is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where a further deposit, usually 10% of the price, is paid. The balance is settled at the notary, where the title deed (escritura) is signed and ownership is formally transferred. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to handle due diligence throughout the process.
