Buying new-build property on the Costa del Sol

From our experience
Four things we tell every buyer
Since 2016 WeSellHomes.es has guided 649 purchases on the Costa del Sol. 37% of our buyers come from the Netherlands, the rest from Belgium and other countries. These are the lessons we have learned.
- 1
Negotiating pays off
In our files, buyers paid on average 7% below the asking price. On a €500,000 home that is €35,000.
- 2
Watch for price reductions
35% of current listings have already been reduced, by 9% on average. We see straight away which seller has room to move.
- 3
Sea views come at a price
For sea views you pay on average 22% more per m²: €6,033 versus €4,937. Sometimes a home one street back is the smarter choice.
- 4
Allow 9 weeks
From accepted offer to collecting the keys at the notary takes our buyers an average of 9 weeks.

English-language guidance
Buying in Spain works fundamentally differently from the UK, Ireland or most other countries. We guide you entirely in English, from the first conversation to the handover of the keys. No surprises, no hidden costs.
Everything starts with a real conversation, not a form or a database. Where would you like to live? By the sea or inland in Málaga province? Are you after a holiday home, a permanent base or an investment with a return? What is your budget, including the additional costs many buyers underestimate?
We ask the right questions so we can search with precision. It costs you nothing and commits you to nothing. Start your no-obligation property search here.
Tip: You don't need to have everything figured out. Many clients discover during this first conversation what they really want, sometimes something quite different from what they first had in mind.We have access to the complete MLS inventory on the Costa del Sol, from apartments and penthouses in Marbella, Estepona and Fuengirola to sea-view villas in Mijas and fincas in inland Málaga.
No endless scrolling. We do the searching and present only homes that genuinely match your wishes.
Did you know: many of the finest homes on the Costa del Sol never appear publicly online? Through our network you also get access to exclusive off-market properties.You don't have to fly to Spain for every viewing. We film properties live for you, including the street, the views, the garden and everything the photos don't show. Only once you are really enthusiastic about a specific home do you plan a focused visit.
On average our clients plan one focused trip instead of three exploratory ones.
Tip: we are right there next to the camera. You can ask questions live and tell us what to show you, just like a real viewing, but from your own sofa.In Spain the offer process works fundamentally differently from what you may be used to at home. Several agents can be involved at the same time, and pressure and urgency are sometimes created artificially. We know the local market prices and we know when someone is bluffing.
We negotiate on your behalf: calm, businesslike and always with your interests first.
Important: we are your buyer's agent, not the seller's. We are there to secure the best price and conditions for you. That is a crucial difference.As soon as the seller accepts your offer, we take the property off the market with a reservation contract, usually with a deposit of around €6,000. This is followed by the Contrato de Arras: the official private purchase contract, at which point 10% of the purchase price is paid.
We make sure you know exactly what you are signing, with every clause explained in plain English.
We arrange: our English-speaking legal partners carry out the legal due diligence: no debts, no illegal extensions, all licences in order. You only sign once everything checks out.Every property transfer in Spain requires an NIE number, your personal Spanish tax identification number. Without an NIE you legally cannot buy a home. We arrange it through our legal partners, including opening a Spanish bank account.
Non-residents can usually finance 60–70% of the purchase value in Spain. Use our free mortgage check to map out your options.
Budget check: allow an extra 10–13% on top of the purchase price for transfer tax (7% on resale homes), notary fees, land registry and legal fees.At the notary all documents are signed and the official transfer of ownership takes place. Payment is made by banker's draft, a system that surprises many foreign buyers. We guide you through the entire notary process.
After completion we stay by your side: utilities, local taxes, community fees and, if you want to let the property, property management.
Can't be there in person? With a notarial power of attorney your lawyer completes the purchase on your behalf. You collect the keys at a moment that suits you.
Can't find your question?
We answer all your questions about buying a home on the Costa del Sol, free of charge and in English.
Frequently asked questions
What buyers ask us most often
Short answers to the questions we hear most, with figures from current listings and from our own purchase files.
We guide purchases from €250,000. That way we can give every buyer the full personal guidance a purchase in Spain requires: from the first viewing to the notary, and afterwards with after-sales support. That is why our market figures show listings from this amount.
What does a home on the Costa del Sol cost?
A resale home costs on average around €5,500 per m², but the differences between municipalities are large: €7,063 per m² in Marbella and €3,671 in Manilva. Half of the listings from €250,000 cost less than €684,000. Reference date September 2026.
How much living space do I get for €500,000?
That depends mainly on the municipality. For €500,000 you buy on average 71 m² in Marbella, 90 m² in Estepona, 111 m² in Mijas and 136 m² in Manilva. In this price range you mainly find apartments and linked homes.
How much do I pay in extra costs on top of the purchase price?
Allow 10 to 13% on top of the purchase price. On a resale home you pay 7% transfer tax (ITP); on new build 10% VAT and 1.2% stamp duty (AJD). Add the notary, land registry and lawyer. We give you a cost overview for every property in advance.
How much can I negotiate on the asking price?
In our own purchase files, buyers paid on average 7% below the asking price. 35% of current listings have already been reduced at least once, by 9% on average. Before you make an offer, we compare the asking price with similar homes in the same area.
Is it better to buy a resale home or a new build?
A resale home can be viewed and moved into straight away, and there is often more room to negotiate. You pay 7% transfer tax. A new build is more energy-efficient and comes with building guarantees, but you often buy off-plan and wait for completion. You then pay 10% VAT and 1.2% stamp duty.
Can I get a mortgage in Spain as a foreign buyer?
Yes. As a non-resident you can usually finance 60 to 70% of the purchase value in Spain. So you need your own funds for the remaining 30 to 40% and for the additional costs. With our free mortgage check we map out your options, with English-speaking advisers.
What does a buyer's agent on the Costa del Sol cost?
At WeSellHomes.es you pay nothing as a buyer for our guidance. Our fee is paid by the selling party, as is customary in Spain. You get a buyer's agent at your side who represents your interests, negotiates the price and guides you from the first viewing to the notary. No hidden costs.
What is the difference between a buyer's agent and a seller's agent?
A seller's agent works for the seller and mainly shows their own listings. A buyer's agent searches the whole market, negotiates on your behalf and guides you all the way to the notary. WeSellHomes.es guides buyers free of charge: the commission is paid by the selling party.
Do I need to travel to Spain to buy a home?
Not necessarily. Most of our international buyers start from home. Our agents film properties live for you, including the neighbourhood, the views and details the photos don't show. For the notary you can authorise a lawyer with a notarial power of attorney. Feel free to start with a no-obligation property search.
Do I need my own lawyer?
Yes, we always recommend it. An independent lawyer checks the title, mortgages and charges, licences, any debts to the community of owners and the purchase contract, among other things. We work with English-speaking legal partners.
What is an NIE number and when do I need it?
The NIE number (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is your Spanish tax number. You need it for the transfer of ownership, a Spanish bank account and paying taxes. Without an NIE you cannot buy a home. Our English-speaking legal partners arrange it for you.
How long does the buying process in Spain take?
For our buyers it takes an average of 9 weeks from accepted offer to collecting the keys at the notary. First comes a reservation contract, then the purchase contract (contrato de arras, usually with a 10% deposit), the legal checks by your lawyer and, if needed, the mortgage. With a mortgage it often takes a little longer.
What annual running costs do I pay after buying?
Every year you pay property tax (IBI, usually €300 to €2,000), community fees to the owners' association (often €50 to €500 per month), buildings insurance and, as a non-resident, non-resident income tax (IRNR). We give you an overview for every property in advance.
Can I let my home to holiday guests?
You need to check this per property before you buy. In Andalusia holiday lets must be entered in the tourism register, municipalities can impose extra restrictions and in apartment buildings the community of owners must approve new tourist lets. We have this checked for every property.
Which town on the Costa del Sol suits me?
Marbella and Benahavís are the luxury segment, Estepona has a broad mix of resale and new build, Mijas and Fuengirola offer many apartments close to amenities, and Manilva gives you the most space for your budget. We help you choose based on budget, accessibility and how you want to use the home.
Do you also guide purchases below €250,000?
No. WeSellHomes.es guides purchases from €250,000, so we can give every buyer fully personal guidance: from the first viewing to the notary, and afterwards with after-sales support.
