¡ HOLA !
Searching for properties anywhere in the world
can be overwhelming and exhausting.
Spain has a way of surpassing the impact of
those impressions. It’s not an easy thing to
search for a property in Spain.
In the very epicentre of this gorgeous Mediterra-
nean investment paradise, every new apartment
looks more beautiful than the previous one. Each
property has more charm than the last.
Some properties are excellent investments, yet
others can be dreadfully over-priced. Compari-
sons can be difficult because of the multitude of
factors to consider.
You’ve heard the stories about watching out for
problems. Sellers sometimes have questionable
ownership. Debts can be linked to the property.
Land registry data can be insufficient. These are
problems that you are generally not confronted
with in your home country.
Spain holds a beautiful and alluring dream for
new property owners, but it is best not to try to
navigate these Mediterranean real estate waters
alone. There are many potential obstacles when
you are acquiring your dream property.
Sunny greetings,
Caroline Trahé & Dirk Jacobs

HOW TO BUY SAFELY
IN SPAIN ?
We make buying in Spain a safe, predictable and
even an enjoyable adventure!
Many Northern Europeans are nervous about
spending so much money so far from home, in
a different language, and under a different legal
system. There are stories about people who have
run into trouble with getting a home properly
built, signing contracts they didn’t understand,
and now there’s Brexit.
It can be difficult to know where to start. We at
Golf Estates & Z-Yachting are here to help you
with clear explanations and details of the buying
process, the costs and time frames.
This Real Estate Purchasing Guide will help you
see your dreams of home ownership in Spain
become a reality. With more sunshine, golf,
swimming, great healthcare, lower cost of living,
friendly people and the food and wine, it is not
hard to see why Spain is the most popular place
in Europe for relaxing, retiring, and vacationing.

THE LIFESTYLE
We see people coming from both extremes
when it comes to having decided what they
want in terms of lifestyle. Some come with a list
in hand, incredibly intricate details and pages of
research. Others come saying essentially that
they want to fall in love with a property, so they
don’t want to limit their options.
We believe in both
It may be that a property checks all the boxes,
yet just doesn’t move you. It is also possible to
fall in love with a property that is just not going
to work practically. Our job is to make sure you
have the best of both worlds. We will work with
you to find your dream home in Spain that ticks
the practical boxes, and that makes your heart
skip a beat.
Spain has a lot to offer. There are dozens and
dozens of properties to see at any given time.
By taking a few minutes to think through your
preferences we can make sure that your viewing
time is spent productively.

Is there any other practical issue you
need to consider?
Answering these questions will help to choose
from an enormous offer of real estate.
□□ What space, indoors and outdoors, do you
require? How will you use it?
□□ Are you looking for a small apartment, a large
penthouse, a small finca, or a hacienda?
□□ How well equipped do you want the kitchen
to be? Indoors? Outdoors?
□□ What sort of outdoor space do you want?
For example, do you want to have (and main-
tain) a pool?
□□ How close do you want to be to amenities?
Shopping? Beach? Water Park?
□□ Will you have your own vehicle, use public
transport (which is fantastic!) or hire a ride?
□□ Are you interested in being close to nightlife
or restaurants? If so, what type?
□□ Are you okay with making major/minor mod-
ifications or renovations to the building?
What are your limits with this? (For example,
would you change the counter tops in the
kitchen but not be willing to rewire the whole
house?)
□□ How close do you need to be to an interna-
tional/national airport? Consider how long
your stays will be. If you are coming for week-
ends it can be better to be closer to the air-
port. This is less important if you are staying
for 3 months or 6 months at a time. 

□□ Do you have friends or family who live in
Spain already? If so, where are they and how
far away from them are you willing to be? 

□□ Will you be renting out the property when
you are not there? If so, how will you deal
with that? 

□□ Does the investment potential matter in the
short-term? In the longer-term? Or do you
plan to hold it as an asset for your estate? 

□□ Are you bringing furniture and other belong-
ings, do you want to purchase them in Spain,
or would you prefer they were included in the
sale? 

Is there anything else you need to consider
logistically?
Emotional Issues
□□ Answering these few questions can help nar-
row down the emotional aspect.
□□ What sort of decorating style do you prefer?
Modern? Spanish Colonial? Indoors/ out-
doors?
□□ What colours do you like? Are you willing to
look past the current colours and have some
painting or other decorating done?
□□ When you have looked at pictures of houses
in Spain, what has made you say: “I love it!”
before?
□□ How do you and your partner differ in tastes?
How critical is this?
This is the time to find a balance between prac-
tical and emotional issues. We can help you do
that with a wide variety of properties. We will
start with properties that fit the answers to the
practical questions and then find one of those
that touches your heart.
The Spanish people have the second longest life
expectancy in the world (after Japan), and there
are reasons for that. The health benefits of the
sunshine, microclimate, fresh air, incredible fresh
food and a culture (and weather) that allows for
more walking cannot be understated.
Many Northern Europeans find they have had
chronic muscle pains for decades before coming to
Spain, only to be pain free in a matter of a few days.
In April 2006 Torrevieja was recognized by the
World Health Organization as one of the healthi-
est areas of the world to live in. The microclimate
ensures pleasant temperatures. People suffering
from heart problems, asthma, arthritis and skin
conditions such as eczema and psoriasis will
acknowledge the positive effects of the climate
on their health condition.
Apart from the sunny climate, it’s not surprising
that the World Health Organisation has chosen
this region. Torrevieja is surrounded by two of
Europe’s largest salt lakes and there is no indus-
trial pollution.
There are many reasons to be looking to make a
real estate investment in Spain. Your health, your
leisure time or a successful financial investment,
are all good reasons.

2
THE MONEY
Your money will buy you more in Spain than you
probably expect. It is important to plan for the
specific expenses so you can foresee as much
as possible.
Chances are the property purchasing systems
are different enough from what you know and
some studying is going to be helpful.
At the beginning, regardless of how diligent you
are about calculating the costs in advance, count
an additional 10% budget for potential extra
costs.
Sales prices
The asking price for a property is what is adver-
tised. As your agent, Golf Estates & Z-Yachting
will negotiate with the sellers, or their agent, to
knock something off the price, if possible.
We will consider similar sales and compare prop-
erties to reduce the price you pay. It has become
very unusual to see sellers lower their price sig-
nificantly, but small reductions are common.
Inspections
It is advisable to inspect every property thor-
oughly. This is valuable both as a negotiation
tool and to give you an idea of any repairs or
maintenance the property may require.
An inspection will show any existing defects or
outline improvements that could be made to the
house, other structures and some landscape fea-
tures.
Registry titles
As a buyer, in Spain, you are responsible for the
registration of the transfer of ownership. The
notary that handled the closing for you may reg-
ister the property for you for a fee at the local
registry office.
If you do pay a notary to register your property,
be sure you know exactly what they will do. They
may only notify the local registry office that a
land transfer has been completed, but they may
not complete the full registration process.
The sellers’ name
The property must be registered under the sell-
ers’ name. This sounds obvious, but sometimes
the person who lists a property with the estate
agency is not the registered owner. This can be
legitimately explained for several reasons, like
the registered owner passed away recently but
the inheritance tax liability is not sorted out. That
means the property cannot be sold.
Until the inheritance is settled, the beneficiaries
cannot do anything with the property, including
registration, mortgage or sale. Only the owners
or their proxy, using a Power of Attorney, are
able to sell the property.
If you have heard stories about property sales
going wrong, this is probably how it happened.
Someone who was not the registered owner took
the funds, and left the “not new owners” unable
to register the property in their own names. We
will make sure this does not happen to you.
17
Property debt
In Spanish law, a debt can be registered to a
property, much like a lien in other countries. The
difference is, that by buying a resale you become
liable for all the debts of the previous owner. The
debts stay with the property, not with the pre-
vious owner. You would become liable for any
debts incurred in the current year and the previ-
ous years. You will also be liable for any unpaid
utility bills or property taxes.
This may have been another story you have
heard about real estate purchases in Spain going
wrong. Since this is not the law in every coun-
try, and because the land registry is not the only
place where debts are registered, some expats
may miss this detail, and be saddled with these
additional debts.
We know how to be sure that, either the debts
are paid before you take possession of the prop-
erty, or the value of the debts is subtracted from
the purchase price.
Mortgages
We often see property purchases made with
cash. Many people also finance property pur-
chases. The 3 financing options we see most fre-
quently are:
□□ Taking out a home equity loan on your own
house in your home country, getting a mort-
gage with your home bank, or
arranging a
mortgage in Spain.
□□ The quickest, cheapest and usually easiest
solution is taking out a mortgage, or a home
equity line of credit with your home bank, on
your first home. You then buy the property
in Spain with cash, and all of your banking
remains in your home country. Some banks
have branches in Spain. This can be helpful
when you spend most of your time in your
home country.
□□ Taking a mortgage in Spain can simplify
repayment if you are not concerned about
exchange rates or international transaction
fees.
Buying costs
The Buying Costs vary depending on whether
the property is a resale or a new-build, the pur-
chase price, and if you are paying cash or mort-
gaging the property.
Generally, allowing about 13% for resale proper-
ties and about 14,5% for newbuild properties on
the purchase price will cover all taxes and fees.
This has to be calculated exactly for each prop-
erty.
The taxes and fees will include:
□□ Resale properties – transfer tax (ITP). Along
most of the Costa Blanca this is 10%. 

□□ VAT of 10%, instead of ITP if newly built. 

□□ Notary Fees – The buyer pays for the deed.
Rates, set by law, are 0,5 to 1% of the prop-
erty purchase price. 

□□ Land Registry Fees – 1% of the property pur-
chase price. 

□□ Independent Legal Fees vary. Allow 1% of
purchase price. For complex transactions the
fees are higher. 

□□ To mortgage the property, add valuation fees
of around ¤ 350, a stamp duty (1,5% of the
mortgage deed) and the lender commission
(usually 1% of the capital loan balance). 

Stamp duty on new-builds is plus 1% of the pur-
chase price, but this varies in different regions.
This is not applicable to resales. 

As a non-resident in Spain you need a tax identi-
fication number (NIE) in order to buy your prop-
erty. This will be issued by the General Directo-
rate of the Police. The number must appear on
all tax returns and on any communication with
the tax authorities. Your NIE needs to be pro-
cessed before your property sale will be com-
pleted, because you cannot buy any property
within Spain without a NIE.
As your real estate agent, Golf Estates &
Z-Yachting will discuss the budget consider-
ations with you candidly. We will guide you
through each step and be certain that every
detail of the transaction is managed smoothly.
Knowing what the expenses will be is crucial.
Knowing someone who can oversee the pro-
cess of each payment, every step and the entire
transaction is priceless.

LOCATION
The Costa Blanca, literally translated as the ‘white
coast’, refers to a 200 kilometer Mediterranean
coastline in south-eastern Spain. The excellent
climate, the splendour of its natural beauty, its
beaches, its Spanish charm and its good acces-
sibility make it an extremely popular region for
tourism.
The last years the Costa Blanca has attracted
many Belgians, Scandinavians, British, Germans,
French, etc. who bought a second home here.
This is quite logical, as this Spanish coast con-
quered the hearts of millions of tourists. Hanging
out lazily on the beach, playing golf with friends
or taking in some cultural experience? It is a
region where you will never get bored!
Landscape
The Costa Blanca reaches from Denia (north) to
Pilar de la Horadada (south) and from Orihuela
to the valleys of Marina Alta. It is a landscape
formed by mountains and cliffs, a turquoise
Mediterranean Sea, extraordinary sandy beaches
and bays. Valleys where agriculture thrives give
the region it’s character, nature and forests com-
plete this idyllic landscape.
Culture
Many archaeological sites, breath-taking artistic
monuments and more than hundred castles and
fortresses from medieval times can be visited. All
this combined with Moorish influences delivers
proof of a rich history, nourished by different cul-
tures.
Gastronomy
As well the coast as the inland of the Costa
Blanca offer a wide choice of restaurants, sym-
bols of the Spanish gastronomy. Furthermore,
there are many wine houses that produce pop-
ular wines and that certainly merit to be visited.
The Costa Blanca is the very emanation of the
Mediterranean diet (fish, vegetables, fruit, cere-
als and olive oil).
Good infrastructure
Small picturesque villages are in contrast here
with renowned touristic areas with a bustling
nightlife. Therefore this is one of the most
attractive touristic and residential destinations
of Europe, where you can enjoy sun, sea, beach
and nature. All this is supported by an extensive
infrastructure: 2 airports, an elaborate network
of roads and railways and numerous ports, all
guaranteeing good connections.
Something for everyone
The Costa Blanca offers countless leisure options,
like the theme parks of Terra Mitica, Aqualandia,
Mundomar, Terra Natura. “Shop ‘till you drop” in
one of the many shopping centres and boule-
vards. Feel the Mediterranean sea breeze during a
sailing trip or imagine yourself a champion on one
of the dozens of golf courses. Sports, diving, hik-
ing, cycling … you can do it all at the Costa Blanca!
Costa Blanca North vs. South
The Costa Blanca is one of the largest coastal
regions of Spain. Consequently it is often divided
in Costa Blanca North and Costa Blanca South.
The great city of Alicante, situated at the heart
of this coastal line, forms the border of both
areas. Although de distance (about 200 km)
from North to South is limited, there is a rather
big difference in climate and vegetation. From
Denia to Alicante the landscape is picturesque
with green mountains and valleys, orchards and
a rough coastal line. Because of the popularity
of the region and a limited availability of build-
ing plots, the slopes are densely developed and
prices are higher compared to the Costa Blanca
South.
Between Alicante and Cartagena several bus-
tling cities with a multicultural influence can be
found. It is a zone that invests in a reliable and
growing infrastructure that meets the needs of
its population.
The coastal area is rich with beautiful sandy
beaches that are awarded with a blue flag. The
hilly landscape bathes in the sun. Nevertheless
the Costa Blanca lets you enjoy its green char-
acter by means of the many golf courses, often
combined with a panoramic sea view. Urbaniza-
tions on these locations are less densely devel-
oped and its apartments and villas offer a more
spacious feeling. The inland on the other hand,
has the authentic character of ancient Spain.
Buying a property on the Costa Blanca
Are you dreaming of your own house, apart-
ment, bungalow or villa on the Costa Blanca?

come true and has an ample offer of properties
for sale, as well resale as newbuild.

DISCOVER THE COSTA
BLANCA NORTH !
From Denia to Alicante, it is possible to enjoy a
picturesque landscape of mountains and valleys
that offer views of a breath-taking coastline.
Beautiful pine forests, orange groves: these are a
matter of course. This is the real Spain!
On land, at sea and in the air
The north of the Costa Blanca is easy to reach
via the Valencia and Alicante airports. The latter
airport especially has a wide range of interna-
tional flights.
Valencia is then the ideal connection for a short
trip to Ibiza or Majorca. It is only a short flight!
The A7 highway has a good infrastructure and
connects the most important coastal cities from
the French border to Malaga in the south of
Spain.
The normal or high-speed train is also a good
option as well as a pleasant way to travel.
And huge passenger ships moor in Valencia
and Alicante daily. But let us not forget the hun-
dreds of sailboats and motorboats. These visit
all of the local marinas during their trip along the
Mediterranean Sea.
Mild winters, sultry summers
The Costa Blanca North enjoys a Mediterranean
climate that generally contrasts with the over-
all weather in Spain. There is little precipitation
throughout the year and the sun makes itself
seen and felt every month.
With regard to temperature, there are also few
extremes to report. There is rarely any frost, nor
does extreme heat with temperatures of 40 or
more degrees occur very often.
The mild dry winters and the pleasant summers
are caused by a Mediterranean climate, with the
Mediterranean Sea having a warming effect on
the area. This effect is protected by the presence
of mountains and hills that hold onto the heat
of the sea and keep back the cold air from the
interior.
The many hours of sunshine and the mild tem-
peratures make it an ideal destination. Staying
for the winter or even for the entire year, it’s a
decision you will not regret!
Property
The many mountain chains make excessive
construction development impossible, which
restricts the density. The limited supply of land
means the prices are considerably higher than in
the Costa Blanca South.
But there are many advantages to this! Many
villas and apartments have fantastic panoramic
seascapes.
Are you considering purchasing an apartment
or villa on the Costa Blanca North? Be sure to
check out our range of houses, villas and apart-
ments for sale, both modern new-build and more
traditional resale.

Cities and municipalities
Denia
Denia has a rich history. This is very visible while
wandering through the narrow, Moorish streets
that twist through and around the centre.
Javea
Javea (Xàbia), originally a fishing village that
grew into a tourist pearl, lies between Denia and
Calpe. An extraordinary coastline, a turquoise
sea and a fabulous temperature – that is Javea!
Benissa
Escape the bustle in this authentic, picturesque
town between Calpe and Moraira. The pictur-
esque historical centre, cobbled streets and 17th
– 18th century houses give it a unique charm and
make it worth the visit.
Moraira
Moraira was a traditional fishing village on the
Costa Blanca that, throughout the years, grew
into a popular holiday spot. Moraira is unique
compared to many other beach resorts. There is
no excess of high apartment buildings or hotels.
This is a pleasant beach resort with a wonderful
atmosphere.
Calpe
This is the ideal destination if you want to experi-
ence that holiday feeling. In Calpe, you will find a
combination of beautiful sandy beaches, nature,
culture and an old town centre.
Altea
Altea is a small, delightful town with a character-
istic centre on a hill. This centre has many narrow
streets, little picturesque white houses and art
galleries. Altea is a town with character!
Benidorm
If one utters the name ‘Benidorm’, an imme-
diate link is made with a general (and errone-
ous) stigma. Of course, we can speak of mass
tourism, but this town has much more to offer.
Sun-drenched sandy beaches, a charming old
shopping plaza, attractive terraces, a lively
promenade and much more ... that is Benidorm!
Villajoyosa
This place, that began as a small village, has
gained immense popularity in recent years.
When you visit this beach resort, you will soon
see why. Villajoyosa is a pearl along the Costa
Blanca with colourful facades, narrow streets,
a clear blue sea, sandy golden beaches and a
marina!

DISCOVER THE COSTA
BLANCA SOUTH !
From Alicante to Cartagena, enjoy a beautiful
coastline with many multicultural cities, good
infrastructure, a mild climate and healthy open
air … In short, one can live like a king on the
Costa Blanca South!
On land, at sea and in the air
The south of the Costa Blanca is very easy to
reach via the airports of Corvera, Murcia, and
Alicante. Especially this last airport has a wide
range of international flights.
In addition, the A7 motorway has an excellent
infrastructure and connects the most important
coastal cities all the way from the French bor-
der to Malaga in the south of Spain. The train or
high-speed train is also a great option as well as
providing a pleasant way of traveling.
Finally, large passenger boats dock daily in the
port of Alicante. But we cannot forget the hun-
dreds of smaller yachts and motorboats. These
put into all local marinas during their trip along
the Mediterranean Sea.
Mild winters, sultry summers
The Costa Blanca South enjoys a Mediterra-
nean climate, which contrasts with the general
weather throughout Spain. There is very little
precipitation throughout the year and the sun
can be enjoyed every month.
In the area of ​temperature, there are also very
few extremes to mention.
Frost hardly ever occurs and extreme heat with
temperatures of 40 degrees or higher is also
very rare.
The mild dry winters and the pleasant summers
are caused by a Mediterranean climate in which
the Mediterranean Sea has a heating effect on
the region in the winter. This effect is protected
by the presence of mountains and hills that
retain the heat of the sea and stop the chilly air
of the interior entering the region.
Because of the many hours of sunshine and the
mild temperatures, it is an ideal destination to
live in. Whether you want to just spend the win-
ter or enjoy living here all year round, it is a deci-
sion that you won’t regret!
The Costa Blanca South is significantly drier
than the higher situated Costa Blanca North.
This is reflected in the drier landscape, which
contrasts with the many green mountain slopes
in the north.
Property
The southern section of the Costa Blanca is rel-
atively flat. As a result, there are more possibil-
ities in terms of available building plots. Every
city, village or municipality has a centre that has
a dense structure, but the surrounding area is
more sparsely populated.
Due to the larger supply of land, there is a larger
supply of housing and this results in a lower
price level in comparison with the north.
Keep in mind that despite the fact that the aver-
age sales price is lower, there is still a difference
between the various locations. Are you consid-
ering buying a property on the Costa Blanca
South? Then be sure to check out our selection
of houses, villas, apartments for sale. Both mod-
ern new construction and more traditional resale.

Running a successful business in Spain?
It’s possible!
Take, for instance, Caroline Trahé, a real
estate agent at the Costa Blanca.
With her agency Z-Yachting, this Belgian entre-
preneur has won the prestigious real estate
award ‘Highly Commended Real Estate Agency
of Spain’ for the second time in a row.
The winner of this award is annually chosen
in London amongst many European real estate
professionals. ‘Everyday we keep on investing in
the future’, says Mrs. Trahé.
‘Flexibility is a must’, 15 years ago Z-Yachting
was born, the main purpose being to sell sail-
and motorboats, but there was such a large
demand for real estate that we decided to focus
on this activity. As a result, several offices cover
almost the entire Costa Blanca now.
We even thought about golfing customers. Sis-
ter company ‘Golf Estates’ is specialized in sell-
ing ‘golf properties’ and has a strategic location
in the middle of 6 big golf courts.
In 2015-2016 Golf-Estates won this real estate
award for Spain too!
Z-Yachting & Golf-Estates
has won the award
Highly Commended Real
Estate Agency of Spain
for the third time.

    5 ¡ HOLA ! Searchingfor properties anywhere in the world can be overwhelming and exhausting. Spain has a way of surpassing the impact of those impressions. It’s not an easy thing to search for a property in Spain. In the very epicentre of this gorgeous Mediterra- nean investment paradise, every new apartment looks more beautiful than the previous one. Each property has more charm than the last. Some properties are excellent investments, yet others can be dreadfully over-priced. Compari- sons can be difficult because of the multitude of factors to consider. You’ve heard the stories about watching out for problems. Sellers sometimes have questionable ownership. Debts can be linked to the property. Land registry data can be insufficient. These are problems that you are generally not confronted with in your home country. Spain holds a beautiful and alluring dream for new property owners, but it is best not to try to navigate these Mediterranean real estate waters alone. There are many potential obstacles when you are acquiring your dream property. Sunny greetings, Caroline Trahé & Dirk Jacobs Managers

    9 HOW TO BUYSAFELY IN SPAIN ? We make buying in Spain a safe, predictable and even an enjoyable adventure! Many Northern Europeans are nervous about spending so much money so far from home, in a different language, and under a different legal system. There are stories about people who have run into trouble with getting a home properly built, signing contracts they didn’t understand, and now there’s Brexit. It can be difficult to know where to start. We at Golf Estates & Z-Yachting are here to help you with clear explanations and details of the buying process, the costs and time frames. This Real Estate Purchasing Guide will help you see your dreams of home ownership in Spain become a reality. With more sunshine, golf, swimming, great healthcare, lower cost of living, friendly people and the food and wine, it is not hard to see why Spain is the most popular place in Europe for relaxing, retiring, and vacationing.
  • 6.
    11 1 THE LIFESTYLE We seepeople coming from both extremes when it comes to having decided what they want in terms of lifestyle. Some come with a list in hand, incredibly intricate details and pages of research. Others come saying essentially that they want to fall in love with a property, so they don’t want to limit their options. We believe in both It may be that a property checks all the boxes, yet just doesn’t move you. It is also possible to fall in love with a property that is just not going to work practically. Our job is to make sure you have the best of both worlds. We will work with you to find your dream home in Spain that ticks the practical boxes, and that makes your heart skip a beat. Spain has a lot to offer. There are dozens and dozens of properties to see at any given time.

    13 Is there anyother practical issue you need to consider? Answering these questions will help to choose from an enormous offer of real estate. □□ What space, indoors and outdoors, do you require? How will you use it? □□ Are you looking for a small apartment, a large penthouse, a small finca, or a hacienda? □□ How well equipped do you want the kitchen to be? Indoors? Outdoors? □□ What sort of outdoor space do you want? For example, do you want to have (and main- tain) a pool? □□ How close do you want to be to amenities? Shopping? Beach? Water Park? □□ Will you have your own vehicle, use public transport (which is fantastic!) or hire a ride? □□ Are you interested in being close to nightlife or restaurants? If so, what type? □□ Are you okay with making major/minor mod- ifications or renovations to the building? What are your limits with this? (For example, would you change the counter tops in the kitchen but not be willing to rewire the whole house?) □□ How close do you need to be to an interna- tional/national airport? Consider how long your stays will be. If you are coming for week- ends it can be better to be closer to the air- port. This is less important if you are staying for 3 months or 6 months at a time. 
 □□ Do you have friends or family who live in Spain already? If so, where are they and how far away from them are you willing to be? 
 □□ Will you be renting out the property when you are not there? If so, how will you deal with that? 
 □□ Does the investment potential matter in the short-term? In the longer-term? Or do you plan to hold it as an asset for your estate? 
 □□ Are you bringing furniture and other belong- ings, do you want to purchase them in Spain, or would you prefer they were included in the sale? 
 Is there anything else you need to consider logistically? Emotional Issues □□ Answering these few questions can help nar- row down the emotional aspect. □□ What sort of decorating style do you prefer? Modern? Spanish Colonial? Indoors/ out- doors? □□ What colours do you like? Are you willing to look past the current colours and have some painting or other decorating done? □□ When you have looked at pictures of houses in Spain, what has made you say: “I love it!” before? □□ How do you and your partner differ in tastes? How critical is this? This is the time to find a balance between prac- tical and emotional issues. We can help you do that with a wide variety of properties. We will start with properties that fit the answers to the practical questions and then find one of those that touches your heart. The Spanish people have the second longest life expectancy in the world (after Japan), and there are reasons for that. The health benefits of the sunshine, microclimate, fresh air, incredible fresh food and a culture (and weather) that allows for more walking cannot be understated. Many Northern Europeans find they have had chronic muscle pains for decades before coming to Spain, only to be pain free in a matter of a few days. In April 2006 Torrevieja was recognized by the World Health Organization as one of the healthi- est areas of the world to live in. The microclimate ensures pleasant temperatures. People suffering from heart problems, asthma, arthritis and skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis will acknowledge the positive effects of the climate on their health condition. Apart from the sunny climate, it’s not surprising that the World Health Organisation has chosen this region. Torrevieja is surrounded by two of Europe’s largest salt lakes and there is no indus- trial pollution. There are many reasons to be looking to make a real estate investment in Spain. Your health, your leisure time or a successful financial investment, are all good reasons.

    15 2 THE MONEY Your moneywill buy you more in Spain than you probably expect. It is important to plan for the specific expenses so you can foresee as much as possible. Chances are the property purchasing systems are different enough from what you know and some studying is going to be helpful. At the beginning, regardless of how diligent you are about calculating the costs in advance, count an additional 10% budget for potential extra costs. Sales prices The asking price for a property is what is adver- tised. As your agent, Golf Estates & Z-Yachting will negotiate with the sellers, or their agent, to knock something off the price, if possible. We will consider similar sales and compare prop- erties to reduce the price you pay. It has become very unusual to see sellers lower their price sig- nificantly, but small reductions are common. Inspections It is advisable to inspect every property thor- oughly. This is valuable both as a negotiation tool and to give you an idea of any repairs or maintenance the property may require. An inspection will show any existing defects or outline improvements that could be made to the house, other structures and some landscape fea- tures. Registry titles As a buyer, in Spain, you are responsible for the registration of the transfer of ownership. The notary that handled the closing for you may reg- ister the property for you for a fee at the local registry office. If you do pay a notary to register your property, be sure you know exactly what they will do. They may only notify the local registry office that a land transfer has been completed, but they may not complete the full registration process. The sellers’ name The property must be registered under the sell- ers’ name. This sounds obvious, but sometimes the person who lists a property with the estate agency is not the registered owner. This can be legitimately explained for several reasons, like the registered owner passed away recently but the inheritance tax liability is not sorted out. That means the property cannot be sold. Until the inheritance is settled, the beneficiaries cannot do anything with the property, including registration, mortgage or sale. Only the owners or their proxy, using a Power of Attorney, are able to sell the property. If you have heard stories about property sales going wrong, this is probably how it happened. Someone who was not the registered owner took the funds, and left the “not new owners” unable to register the property in their own names. We will make sure this does not happen to you.
  • 9.
    17 Property debt In Spanishlaw, a debt can be registered to a property, much like a lien in other countries. The difference is, that by buying a resale you become liable for all the debts of the previous owner. The debts stay with the property, not with the pre- vious owner. You would become liable for any debts incurred in the current year and the previ- ous years. You will also be liable for any unpaid utility bills or property taxes. This may have been another story you have heard about real estate purchases in Spain going wrong. Since this is not the law in every coun- try, and because the land registry is not the only place where debts are registered, some expats may miss this detail, and be saddled with these additional debts. We know how to be sure that, either the debts are paid before you take possession of the prop- erty, or the value of the debts is subtracted from the purchase price. Mortgages We often see property purchases made with cash. Many people also finance property pur- chases. The 3 financing options we see most fre- quently are: □□ Taking out a home equity loan on your own house in your home country, getting a mort- gage with your home bank, or
arranging a mortgage in Spain. □□ The quickest, cheapest and usually easiest solution is taking out a mortgage, or a home equity line of credit with your home bank, on your first home. You then buy the property in Spain with cash, and all of your banking remains in your home country. Some banks have branches in Spain. This can be helpful when you spend most of your time in your home country. □□ Taking a mortgage in Spain can simplify repayment if you are not concerned about exchange rates or international transaction fees. Buying costs The Buying Costs vary depending on whether the property is a resale or a new-build, the pur- chase price, and if you are paying cash or mort- gaging the property. Generally, allowing about 13% for resale proper- ties and about 14,5% for newbuild properties on the purchase price will cover all taxes and fees. This has to be calculated exactly for each prop- erty. The taxes and fees will include: □□ Resale properties – transfer tax (ITP). Along most of the Costa Blanca this is 10%. 
 □□ VAT of 10%, instead of ITP if newly built. 
 □□ Notary Fees – The buyer pays for the deed. Rates, set by law, are 0,5 to 1% of the prop- erty purchase price. 
 □□ Land Registry Fees – 1% of the property pur- chase price. 
 □□ Independent Legal Fees vary. Allow 1% of purchase price. For complex transactions the fees are higher. 
 □□ To mortgage the property, add valuation fees of around ¤ 350, a stamp duty (1,5% of the mortgage deed) and the lender commission (usually 1% of the capital loan balance). 
 Stamp duty on new-builds is plus 1% of the pur- chase price, but this varies in different regions. This is not applicable to resales. 
 As a non-resident in Spain you need a tax identi- fication number (NIE) in order to buy your prop- erty. This will be issued by the General Directo- rate of the Police. The number must appear on all tax returns and on any communication with the tax authorities. Your NIE needs to be pro- cessed before your property sale will be com- pleted, because you cannot buy any property within Spain without a NIE. As your real estate agent, Golf Estates & Z-Yachting will discuss the budget consider- ations with you candidly. We will guide you through each step and be certain that every detail of the transaction is managed smoothly. Knowing what the expenses will be is crucial. Knowing someone who can oversee the pro- cess of each payment, every step and the entire transaction is priceless.

    19 3 LOCATION The Costa Blanca,literally translated as the ‘white coast’, refers to a 200 kilometer Mediterranean coastline in south-eastern Spain. The excellent climate, the splendour of its natural beauty, its beaches, its Spanish charm and its good acces- sibility make it an extremely popular region for tourism. The last years the Costa Blanca has attracted many Belgians, Scandinavians, British, Germans, French, etc. who bought a second home here. This is quite logical, as this Spanish coast con- quered the hearts of millions of tourists. Hanging out lazily on the beach, playing golf with friends or taking in some cultural experience? It is a region where you will never get bored! Landscape The Costa Blanca reaches from Denia (north) to Pilar de la Horadada (south) and from Orihuela to the valleys of Marina Alta. It is a landscape formed by mountains and cliffs, a turquoise Mediterranean Sea, extraordinary sandy beaches and bays. Valleys where agriculture thrives give the region it’s character, nature and forests com- plete this idyllic landscape. Culture Many archaeological sites, breath-taking artistic monuments and more than hundred castles and fortresses from medieval times can be visited. All this combined with Moorish influences delivers proof of a rich history, nourished by different cul- tures. Gastronomy As well the coast as the inland of the Costa Blanca offer a wide choice of restaurants, sym- bols of the Spanish gastronomy. Furthermore, there are many wine houses that produce pop- ular wines and that certainly merit to be visited. The Costa Blanca is the very emanation of the Mediterranean diet (fish, vegetables, fruit, cere- als and olive oil). Good infrastructure Small picturesque villages are in contrast here with renowned touristic areas with a bustling nightlife. Therefore this is one of the most attractive touristic and residential destinations of Europe, where you can enjoy sun, sea, beach and nature. All this is supported by an extensive infrastructure: 2 airports, an elaborate network of roads and railways and numerous ports, all guaranteeing good connections. Something for everyone The Costa Blanca offers countless leisure options, like the theme parks of Terra Mitica, Aqualandia, Mundomar, Terra Natura. “Shop ‘till you drop” in one of the many shopping centres and boule- vards. Feel the Mediterranean sea breeze during a sailing trip or imagine yourself a champion on one of the dozens of golf courses. Sports, diving, hik- ing, cycling … you can do it all at the Costa Blanca! Costa Blanca North vs. South The Costa Blanca is one of the largest coastal regions of Spain. Consequently it is often divided in Costa Blanca North and Costa Blanca South. The great city of Alicante, situated at the heart of this coastal line, forms the border of both areas. Although de distance (about 200 km) from North to South is limited, there is a rather big difference in climate and vegetation. From Denia to Alicante the landscape is picturesque with green mountains and valleys, orchards and a rough coastal line. Because of the popularity of the region and a limited availability of build- ing plots, the slopes are densely developed and prices are higher compared to the Costa Blanca South. Between Alicante and Cartagena several bus- tling cities with a multicultural influence can be found. It is a zone that invests in a reliable and growing infrastructure that meets the needs of its population. The coastal area is rich with beautiful sandy beaches that are awarded with a blue flag. The hilly landscape bathes in the sun. Nevertheless the Costa Blanca lets you enjoy its green char- acter by means of the many golf courses, often combined with a panoramic sea view. Urbaniza- tions on these locations are less densely devel- oped and its apartments and villas offer a more spacious feeling. The inland on the other hand, has the authentic character of ancient Spain. Buying a property on the Costa Blanca Are you dreaming of your own house, apart- ment, bungalow or villa on the Costa Blanca? Z-Yachting & Golf-Estates will make your dreams come true and has an ample offer of properties for sale, as well resale as newbuild.

    23 DISCOVER THE COSTA BLANCANORTH ! From Denia to Alicante, it is possible to enjoy a picturesque landscape of mountains and valleys that offer views of a breath-taking coastline. Beautiful pine forests, orange groves: these are a matter of course. This is the real Spain! On land, at sea and in the air The north of the Costa Blanca is easy to reach via the Valencia and Alicante airports. The latter airport especially has a wide range of interna- tional flights. Valencia is then the ideal connection for a short trip to Ibiza or Majorca. It is only a short flight! The A7 highway has a good infrastructure and connects the most important coastal cities from the French border to Malaga in the south of Spain. The normal or high-speed train is also a good option as well as a pleasant way to travel. And huge passenger ships moor in Valencia and Alicante daily. But let us not forget the hun- dreds of sailboats and motorboats. These visit all of the local marinas during their trip along the Mediterranean Sea. Mild winters, sultry summers The Costa Blanca North enjoys a Mediterranean climate that generally contrasts with the over- all weather in Spain. There is little precipitation throughout the year and the sun makes itself seen and felt every month. With regard to temperature, there are also few extremes to report. There is rarely any frost, nor does extreme heat with temperatures of 40 or more degrees occur very often. The mild dry winters and the pleasant summers are caused by a Mediterranean climate, with the Mediterranean Sea having a warming effect on the area. This effect is protected by the presence of mountains and hills that hold onto the heat of the sea and keep back the cold air from the interior. The many hours of sunshine and the mild tem- peratures make it an ideal destination. Staying for the winter or even for the entire year, it’s a decision you will not regret! Property The many mountain chains make excessive construction development impossible, which restricts the density. The limited supply of land means the prices are considerably higher than in the Costa Blanca South. But there are many advantages to this! Many villas and apartments have fantastic panoramic seascapes. Are you considering purchasing an apartment or villa on the Costa Blanca North? Be sure to check out our range of houses, villas and apart- ments for sale, both modern new-build and more traditional resale.

    25 Denia JaveaBenissa MorairaCalpe Altea Villajoyasa Benidorm Cities and municipalities Denia Deniahas a rich history. This is very visible while wandering through the narrow, Moorish streets that twist through and around the centre. Javea Javea (Xàbia), originally a fishing village that grew into a tourist pearl, lies between Denia and Calpe. An extraordinary coastline, a turquoise sea and a fabulous temperature – that is Javea!

The pictur- esque historical centre, cobbled streets and 17th – 18th century houses give it a unique charm and make it worth the visit.

Altea Altea is a small, delightful town with a character- istic centre on a hill. This centre has many narrow streets, little picturesque white houses and art galleries. Altea is a town with character! Benidorm If one utters the name ‘Benidorm’, an imme- diate link is made with a general (and errone- ous) stigma. Of course, we can speak of mass tourism, but this town has much more to offer. Sun-drenched sandy beaches, a charming old shopping plaza, attractive terraces, a lively promenade and much more ... that is Benidorm! Villajoyosa This place, that began as a small village, has gained immense popularity in recent years. When you visit this beach resort, you will soon see why. Villajoyosa is a pearl along the Costa Blanca with colourful facades, narrow streets, a clear blue sea, sandy golden beaches and a marina!

    39 DISCOVER THE COSTA BLANCASOUTH ! From Alicante to Cartagena, enjoy a beautiful coastline with many multicultural cities, good infrastructure, a mild climate and healthy open air … In short, one can live like a king on the Costa Blanca South! On land, at sea and in the air The south of the Costa Blanca is very easy to reach via the airports of Corvera, Murcia, and Alicante. Especially this last airport has a wide range of international flights. In addition, the A7 motorway has an excellent infrastructure and connects the most important coastal cities all the way from the French bor- der to Malaga in the south of Spain. The train or high-speed train is also a great option as well as providing a pleasant way of traveling. Finally, large passenger boats dock daily in the port of Alicante. But we cannot forget the hun- dreds of smaller yachts and motorboats. These put into all local marinas during their trip along the Mediterranean Sea. Mild winters, sultry summers The Costa Blanca South enjoys a Mediterra- nean climate, which contrasts with the general weather throughout Spain. There is very little precipitation throughout the year and the sun can be enjoyed every month. In the area of ​temperature, there are also very few extremes to mention. Frost hardly ever occurs and extreme heat with temperatures of 40 degrees or higher is also very rare. The mild dry winters and the pleasant summers are caused by a Mediterranean climate in which the Mediterranean Sea has a heating effect on the region in the winter. This effect is protected by the presence of mountains and hills that retain the heat of the sea and stop the chilly air of the interior entering the region. Because of the many hours of sunshine and the mild temperatures, it is an ideal destination to live in. Whether you want to just spend the win- ter or enjoy living here all year round, it is a deci- sion that you won’t regret! The Costa Blanca South is significantly drier than the higher situated Costa Blanca North. This is reflected in the drier landscape, which contrasts with the many green mountain slopes in the north. Property The southern section of the Costa Blanca is rel- atively flat. As a result, there are more possibil- ities in terms of available building plots. Every city, village or municipality has a centre that has a dense structure, but the surrounding area is more sparsely populated. Due to the larger supply of land, there is a larger supply of housing and this results in a lower price level in comparison with the north. Keep in mind that despite the fact that the aver- age sales price is lower, there is still a difference between the various locations. Are you consid- ering buying a property on the Costa Blanca South? Then be sure to check out our selection of houses, villas, apartments for sale. Both mod- ern new construction and more traditional resale.

    69 Running a successfulbusiness in Spain? It’s possible! Take, for instance, Caroline Trahé, a real estate agent at the Costa Blanca. With her agency Z-Yachting, this Belgian entre- preneur has won the prestigious real estate award ‘Highly Commended Real Estate Agency of Spain’ for the second time in a row. The winner of this award is annually chosen in London amongst many European real estate professionals. ‘Everyday we keep on investing in the future’, says Mrs. Trahé. ‘Flexibility is a must’, 15 years ago Z-Yachting was born, the main purpose being to sell sail- and motorboats, but there was such a large demand for real estate that we decided to focus on this activity. As a result, several offices cover almost the entire Costa Blanca now. We even thought about golfing customers. Sis- ter company ‘Golf Estates’ is specialized in sell- ing ‘golf properties’ and has a strategic location in the middle of 6 big golf courts. In 2015-2016 Golf-Estates won this real estate award for Spain too! Z-Yachting & Golf-Estates has won the award Highly Commended Real Estate Agency of Spain for the third time.
