Off-Plan Properties:

The Southern Spanish region is currently experiencing an influx of new off-plan properties due for completion between 6 months and 2 years. Buying off-plan means you get the best choice of land plots, locations and views and can tailor the property to your specific needs and desires. These properties enter the market at below average prices and offer attractive payments plan for ease of cash flow throughout the building and completion process. Many of these properties are being viewed as good investments to rent out to holiday-makers or sell onwards as values increase.

Re-Sale Properties

Investing in a resale property ensures you are buying a completed property at the current price that is also available for move-in right away. Depending on what your needs are in terms of what areas you are most interested in, whether you are walking distance to the beach or local shops and businesses, and what your timeline is, there are a great number of affordable resale properties in high demand areas along the Costal del Sol in good conditions, or that have excellent potential for reform that can lead to highly profitable returns.

New Developments

New completed contemporary apartments and villas are currently very popular among British, Dutch and Scandinavian buyers. New developments along the Costa del Sol offer contemporary interior and exterior designs and sustainable construction processes that keep maintenance costs low.
