Frequently asked
Yes. Non-residents — including US, UAE, UK and European buyers — can typically borrow up to 65% of value on Torrevieja property through Spanish and international lenders. Torrevieja is a high-volume market where lenders are comfortable, though valuations are conservative on older stock.
Around 35–40% of the price in cash, plus purchase costs and taxes on top. Funds must be traceable and evidenced before a lender will issue a formal offer.
Torrevieja centre, Playa del Cura, Los Balcones, La Mata, Punta Prima and the wider Orihuela Costa are all well-evidenced lending locations. Less liquid or rural stock is still financeable, usually at a slightly lower loan-to-value.
Yes. Short-term bridging is regularly arranged for off-market and auction purchases, refurbishment projects and to bridge a home-country sale, typically over 6–24 months.
Yes. Selected international lenders will lend in GBP or USD, or offer multi-currency facilities, against Torrevieja property — useful where your income is not in euros.
Yes. Lenders typically want two to three years of accounts or tax returns; company directors can combine salary, dividends and retained profits.
Plan for six to ten weeks from full application to notary. Bridging can complete in two to four weeks where a deadline demands it.
Yes — both are required to sign at notary and draw down a Spanish mortgage. We coordinate NIE, bank account opening, lawyer engagement and FX alongside the finance.
Most Spanish banks apply a minimum of around €50,000–€100,000, and our specialist international lenders start higher. Below that level a cash purchase is usually more practical.
Yes. Stage payments to the developer are generally funded from your own resources, with the mortgage drawn at notary on completion. Bank guarantees on stage payments should be checked by your lawyer.
Yes, subject to valuation and a clean habitation certificate. Properties without a valid licencia de primera ocupación can be difficult, so this is checked early.

Also consider bridging
Non-resident Spanish mortgages typically take 6–10 weeks. Where timing is tight — auctions, off-market deals, chain-breaks or a pending home-country sale — short-term bridging can complete in 2–4 weeks and refinance onto a mortgage later.
Fast, short-term facilities for chain-breaks, auctions, off-market deals and pre-mortgage completions.
