Extending from Denia to Horadada, it covers almost 140 kilometres of some of the most beautiful coastal scenery to be found anywhere along Mediterranean shores. Characterized not only by it's scenic beauty but also by a rich diversity of landscapes and settings, the Costa Blanca is made up of a series of clearly differentiated regions. From the shallow lagoons and extensive sand dunes of the south to the deeply indented rocky coves and bays of the north, this privileged corner of Spain offers all everything that has made this country so highly favoured with holiday home a property purchasers. With more than 20 kilometres of clean golden beaches, the landscape gradually changes into a curtain of mountains the run parallel to the sea, with dramatic cliffs and private sandy coves, where majestic granite outcrops provide a panoramic delight as they guard the entrance to sparkling blue bays. At Cabo de la Nao, the south-eastern-most point of the Spanish Mainland, it is possible to glimpse the islands of Ibiza and Formentera, approximately 90 kilometres distant. The clear blue waters and stunning underwater scenery make it a diver's paradise, while the setting of the sun, as it bathes sea, sky and land in a rich golden glow, is an experience not easily forgotten. Further south, the cliffs are a creamy white tint from which the Costa Blanca (white coast) derives its name. Covered with Mediterranean scrub and coastal pine, this is an area whose romantic lighthouses and ancient ruins encapsulate the history and soul of the Mediterranean. While the coast boasts excellent transport facilities of motorways, railways, ferry ports and 3 international airports, Costa Blanca is one of the most stunning and unspoilt areas in Europe. With average temperatures between 18 & 28 degrees the climate is not only healthy-rated one of the best by the World Health Organisation- but also made just for you, with Hotels, health and fitness spas, 19 golf courses and every watersport imaginable.

Buying Property in Spain Buying
a Spanish property will normally be contained in a private contract
with a deposit of around 10% payable which is binding by law. It
is possible to agree a contract where either party may change their
minds at a financial cost. The private contract should contain
details of the agreed deposit payment, purchase price and details
for payment of the outstanding balance of the agreed buying price
plus any additional extras and your intended completion. A Notary
will prepare the official contracts and make sure it complies with
Spanish regulations. If there is common ownership a Community of
Owners must be established through which community charges can
be shared. If your property is contained in an apartment block
then the law will relate to the Horizontal Division and this should
be clarified, especially in new developments. Any property sale
or purchase in Spain should be registered in the Land Registry
and its important to make sure any relevant taxes are paid before
this is done. You
would expect to pay a total of around 10% of the purchase price
for realestate in Spain. This could include Stamp duty, charged
at 7% of the official selling price (4.5% for the Canaries), and
0.5% for contract documents Land Registry is charged against a
rateable table held by local authorities. There will also be a
tax on the increase of the land your property lies on since it
was last sold and should be paid by the vendor. Notary fees will
also be included in the total costs. All
your Spanish property taxes will be based on the official price
registered, not on selling prices and you would expect to pay under
1% annually, plus additional service taxes set by the local authority.
Wealth tax charges apply for residents after 17m ptas of net assets;
