Sunrise Tower · Calle Dorotea 76 · TorreviejaPrivate residences with two bedrooms, two per floor, in prime Torrevieja.

A home at Sunrise Tower costs about 12–13% more than its list price once taxes and fees are added. On a €275,000 home: €27,500 IVA at 10%, €3,850 AJD stamp duty at 1.4%, roughly €750 notary and €400 land registry, and, if you use an independent lawyer, about €3,300 at the customary 1% plus IVA — around €35,800 in all. On the €395,000 sixth-floor home the same items come to about €51,000. Notary and registry fees follow regulated scales; the lawyer's fee is agreed freely.

A new-build purchase in Torrevieja pays IVA at 10% and AJD stamp duty at 1.4%, not the ITP transfer tax (9% in the Comunitat Valenciana) that applies to resales. IVA is national (Ley 37/1992, art. 91) and covers the home and up to two parking spaces sold with it; AJD is set by the Comunitat Valenciana (Ley 13/1997, art. 14) and dropped from 1.5% to 1.4% for deeds signed from 1 June 2026, so pages still quoting 1.5% are out of date. Both are calculated on the deed price, excluding IVA for the AJD.

Buying off-plan in Spain is safe provided the statutory protection on every stage payment is in place. Under Ley 38/1999 (first additional provision, as amended by Ley 20/2015) every payment made before completion must be guaranteed by a bank guarantee or an insurance policy and paid into a dedicated account that can only be used for the construction. Ask for the individual certificate in your name for each stage payment, the name of the bank account, and the building licence date, because the obligation starts from that licence.

No payment schedule for Sunrise Tower is published yet. The usual pattern on the Costa Blanca is a reservation of a few thousand euros, a percentage on signing the private contract, stage payments during construction and the balance on the deed, but the split for Sunrise Tower will be confirmed in writing before you reserve. Every payment before completion must be covered by the guarantee described above, and we will not take a reservation until the certificate is in hand.

Construction runs from 2026 to 2028 and the homes are delivered key-ready in 2028; the month is not yet fixed. If delivery runs late, the same law lets you cancel and recover every payment with interest, or agree an extension in writing. Before completion, ask for the acknowledged first-occupation declaration (declaración responsable de primera ocupación), which is what the utility companies and the guarantee release depend on.

A Spanish lawyer is not required by law, but every foreign buyer we work with uses one. An independent lawyer checks the building licence, the guarantee certificates, the division deed and the community statutes, and can sign on your behalf with a power of attorney if you are not in Spain. Fees are agreed freely; 1% of the price plus IVA is the common quote, not a fixed tariff.

Yes, you need a NIE: the Spanish identification number for foreigners is required for the deed, the taxes and the utility contracts. Apply at a Spanish consulate or, in Spain, at the Oficina de Extranjería or a police station with form EX-15, your passport and the €9.84 fee (tax form 790-012); a lawyer can obtain it for you by power of attorney. Allow two to four weeks through a consulate.

Yes, non-residents can get a Spanish mortgage: banks typically lend up to 60–70% of the lower of price and valuation over 20 years or more depending on the bank; CaixaBank's HolaBank, for example, publishes a 70% ceiling and a 20-year maximum. Since 2018 the lender pays the stamp duty on the mortgage deed and the notary and registry costs of the loan; you pay the valuation. Financing is arranged for completion, not for the stage payments.

Running costs after purchase are three fixed items: IBI, the community fee and the rubbish charge. IBI, the annual council tax, is 0.40% of the cadastral value in Torrevieja, and cadastral values sit well below market prices; the community fee for the pool, lift, sauna and roof is not yet set, because the community of owners does not exist until the building does; and the rubbish charge is roughly €80–130 a year. Add electricity, water and, for non-residents, the imputed-income tax below.

A non-resident owner who does not let the home pays an imputed income tax (IRNR, form 210) on 1.1% or 2% of the cadastral value, at 19% for EU/EEA residents, Norway included, and 24% for everyone else, the UK included. On a typical cadastral value it comes to a few hundred euros a year, declared once a year. Rental income is taxed separately; the 3% retention you may have read about applies only when a non-resident sells.

A tourist let at Sunrise Tower is possible only with approvals that do not exist yet. Since April 2025 a tourist let needs the express approval of the community of owners by a three-fifths majority (Ley de Propiedad Horizontal, art. 17.12), plus a municipal urban-compatibility report, registration in the Valencian tourism registry and the national rental registry number that platforms must display. Lets of 11 days or more fall outside the tourist regime. Do not base a purchase on tourist-rental income until those approvals are in hand.

No, buying a home does not give residency in Spain: the real-estate Golden Visa ended on 3 April 2025 (Ley Orgánica 1/2025). UK and Norwegian citizens can stay 90 days in any 180 without a visa; for longer stays the non-lucrative visa requires proof of means (four times the IPREM, about €2,400 a month in 2026) and private health insurance. EU citizens simply register as residents.

Sunrise Tower is sold by Sunny Casas (Sunny Global S.L.), an estate agency registered as RAICV 5942 in the Comunitat Valenciana's register of estate agents, with its office at Calle Patricio Zammit 1, Torrevieja. Every price and plan on this page comes from the price list and the working drawings; the agency's legal pages are linked in the footer.

Useful area (útil) is the floor you can walk on inside the home: 50.98 m² for Type A including its balcony. Built area (construida) adds the walls: 58.24 m². Total built adds the home's share of the lift, stairs and landings: 63.38 m², the figure on the price list and the one most listings quote. Type B is 49.10, 56.17 and 61.12 m². The plan sheet's 'total useful surface' of 59.15 m² is the useful area plus an 8.18 m² common-area allowance.

Every apartment at Sunrise Tower has two bedrooms and one bathroom. Bedroom 1 is 10.24 m², bedroom 2 is 8.32 m², the bathroom 3.90 m², and the living, dining and kitchen room 24.67 m² in Type A or 22.79 m² in Type B — all useful area from the working drawings. Each home has one balcony of 3.84 m² off the living room.

Type A and Type B differ by 1.88 m² of living room and €10,000 on every floor. The two layouts mirror each other around the lift core on every floor; bedrooms, bathroom and balcony are identical. Type A has a 24.67 m² living room and costs €285,000 to €395,000 by floor; Type B has 22.79 m² and costs €275,000 to €375,000.

The kitchen furniture — units and worktop — is included; appliances are not. An optional pack of six (fridge, induction hob, oven, microwave, extractor hood and dishwasher) is offered at €3,500 on the price list, and a furniture pack for the whole home at €10,000.

Air conditioning is pre-installed as ducting and zone control; the machine itself is an optional €2,500 pack: one A++ inverter unit serving the whole home through the ducts. Domestic hot water is aerothermal and every home has mechanical ventilation, both included.

Sunrise Tower has open communal parking on the ground floor — eleven bays and nine bicycle stands drawn on the plans — and no storage rooms. No garages are listed either, and no bay is assigned to a particular home in any document we hold; ask before you assume one.

The A+ energy rating is a projected rating, not a certificate. Spain's energy certificate scale runs from A to G, so 'A+' is not yet a class that can be certified, and the certificate itself is issued when the building is finished (Real Decreto 390/2021). Treat A+ as the design target from the plan sheets; the certificate will be published here once it exists.

A new build in Spain carries ten years on the structure, three on habitability and installations, and one on finishes, under Ley 38/1999 (LOE), counted from the handover of the works; the ten-year cover is backed by compulsory insurance. Add to that the guarantee on every stage payment before completion, which is released only when the first-occupation declaration is in place and the home is handed over.

The price list offers three packs — appliances, air conditioning and furniture — and the plan sheets reserve the right to substitute any element for one of similar or higher value during construction. Requests beyond that go to the sales office in writing; nothing is promised until it is in the contract.
