YOUR COSTA HOME
Your Elite Gateway To Coastal Living
A boutique property finder for quality-focused buyers. With many years of hands-on experience covering both the East and West sides of Málaga—from Nerja all the way to Estepona—we know every corner of this coast.Uncompromising focus, sourced for you. Because we intentionally work with a much smaller number of buyers than traditional real estate agencies, we dedicate our full time and focus to your search. We hunt down exceptional off-market gems and private listings, finding your ideal home even if it isn’t currently up for public sale.While primarily we work with independent buyers', our past clients and personal network frequently trust us to market their homes. Because of this, we also proudly showcase an occasional, highly exclusive selection of properties for sale.
Complete Protection for International Buyers
Navigating a property purchase in Spain should be exciting, not stressful. We manage the entire process entirely on your behalf—from translating local listings to conducting initial video viewings. Crucially, we collaborate directly with highly trusted local lawyers, tax advisors, and gestors who speak your native language fluently. We guide you through Spanish NIE applications, banking setups, and local purchase taxes (typically around 10-12% in Andalusia) so there are absolutely zero surprises at the notary.
Our Unwavering Commitment: One Standard of Excellence
Whether you are investing €200,000 in a sun-drenched holiday lock-up-and-go, or spending multi-millions on an exclusive coastal estate, you will receive the exact same uncompromising standard of personal service, discretion, and dedication from us.
After many years of successfully helping individuals and families completely relocate or secure their ideal holiday retreats, we know that every property journey is deeply personal. We don’t measure our clients by their budgets—we measure our success by the trust we build and the seamless, guidance we provide at every single step of your purchase.
New Build or Resale Property?
Financial & Legal Insights: Tax, Timelines & Capital Potential
There are currently more than 200 new build developments active along the Costa del Sol, offering an incredible depth of choice across highly sought-after locations and allowing a choice from a vast array of layouts, panoramic viewpoints, and high-end resort-style amenities.Choosing between a new build and a resale property in the Málaga province involves distinct financial structures and timelines. New builds require a 10% IVA (VAT) plus a 1.2% AJD (Stamp Duty), whereas resales incur a flat 7% ITP (Transfer Tax).While resales offer immediate occupancy, buying a new build off-plan at the start of construction typically means a 18 to 24-month timeline to receive your keys. However, this window can offer a notable uplift in value from reservation to completion, meaning your property may appreciate before delivery. To eliminate risk during this construction phase, Spanish law safely secures your investment by requiring developers to provide a mandatory bank guarantee (Aval Bancario) for all deposits.
