About La Siesta, 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 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), which is worth checking before you budget. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800), and legal fees at around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates broadly range from 3.5% to 4.5%, though terms depend on your lender and financial profile. We can refer you to specialist brokers who work with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs for this property?
The annual IBI (council tax) for this property is €80. There are no community fees. Utility costs for water and electricity will vary with usage. A basura (rubbish collection) charge may apply locally; the current figure is not confirmed for this listing.
Can I view the property without travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who are unable to visit in person. A member of our team can walk through the property with you live via video call, and we can supply additional photos or floor plan detail on request. In-person viewings in La Siesta can be arranged at short notice.
Is this property suitable as a rental investment?
La Siesta and the wider Torrevieja area attract consistent visitor interest, particularly from buyers seeking access to the salt lakes and the southern Costa Blanca coast. Short-term tourist rentals in the Valencian Community require a licence from the regional authority. We recommend speaking to a local property manager about realistic occupancy expectations before committing to a letting strategy.
What does the purchase process involve?
You will first need a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which can be obtained at a local police station or through a solicitor. Once you agree a price, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market. This is typically followed by a private purchase contract (arras), where a further deposit is paid, usually 10% of the purchase price. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance and all associated taxes and fees are settled. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor to act on your behalf throughout.
