Resale property on the Costa Blanca
A resale property has already had one or more owners. You see exactly what you are buying: the orientation, the view, the condition of the home and life in the neighbourhood. You can also usually complete and move in sooner than with an off-plan purchase. On the other hand, some refurbishment may be needed, and you should check community fees and the state of the installations.
Where to look
Our resale choice is widest in Villamartín, Torrevieja and Cabo Roig, three areas of Alicante province. Torrevieja stands at about €2,548/m² (indicative, idealista, May 2026) and Orihuela Costa, which includes Villamartín and Cabo Roig, at about €2,990/m² (indicative, idealista, January 2026).
The costs of a resale
A resale is not subject to VAT: it pays ITP instead, and the deed carries no proportional AJD. In the Valencian Community ITP is 9% for deeds signed from 1 June 2026; in the Murcia region it has been 7.75% since 25 July 2025. With notary, Land Registry and gestoría fees, allow roughly 10.5–11.5% of the price in Alicante province and 9.5–10.5% in Murcia. If the seller is not tax resident in Spain, the buyer withholds 3% of the price and pays it to the tax office (Modelo 211). Our article new build vs resale property in Spain helps you choose.
To sign the deed, every buyer needs an NIE, the identification number Spain gives to foreigners. You apply on form EX-15 at a Spanish consulate or, by appointment, at a Policía Nacional office; the 2026 fee is €9.84. A representative holding a power of attorney can also obtain it for you, and there is no official processing time.
Once you own a home as a non-resident and do not let it, you file an annual imputed-income return on Modelo 210, and the town hall charges IBI, the local property tax based on the cadastral value.
How we help
We recommend an independent lawyer to check the legal status of the property and guide you through the NIE. Contact us to arrange viewings with our partner Costa Blanca Sales, established in 2000.
