Guide to buying a house in Dénia for foreigners

Buying a home in Dénia is an increasingly popular option among international buyers. The Mediterranean climate, the beaches and the quality of life make this Costa Blanca town one of the favorite destinations for acquiring a second home or even moving permanently.

If you are a foreigner and are thinking of buying a property in the area, here are some important aspects you should know.

Obtain the NIE number

The NIE (Foreigner Identification Number) is a mandatory document to carry out any property purchase in Spain. This number allows you to perform legal procedures such as signing the deed, opening a bank account or paying taxes.

Open a bank account in Spain

To facilitate the purchase process, it is advisable to open a bank account in Spain. Payments related to the home, such as taxes, utilities or community fees, will be made from this account.

Expenses and taxes when buying a home

When buying a property in Spain, it is important to take into account some additional costs on top of the purchase price. Normally these costs can range between 10% and 13% of the property's value.

The main expenses include:

• Transfer tax

• Notary and registration

• Legal fees

Choose the right area

One of the advantages of Dénia is the variety of areas available to buy a home.

Many foreign buyers look for properties near the sea, especially in areas like Playa Deveses, where you can enjoy wide beaches and a peaceful environment.

Have professional advice

Buying a home in another country can be complex if you are not familiar with the process. That is why having a local real estate agency can greatly facilitate the search for properties and the management of all procedures.
