Practical guides to buying new-build property on the Costa del Sol — written from our own portfolio of 633 new developments, with prices from the listings themselves rather than from market reports.
The guides
- What €500,000, €1m and €2m buy in a new development around Marbella — what each budget actually gets you in Mijas, Estepona, Marbella and Benahavís.
- Benahavís, Estepona or Mijas: where new-build buyers get most for their money — the three markets compared on price, supply and lifestyle.
- What buying really costs in Spain: new build vs resale — IVA, AJD and ITP explained, with a worked example on a €785,000 home.
- Off-plan in Marbella: seven checks before you pay a deposit — licence, bank guarantee, payment schedule and the questions to ask first.
