Buying a property on the Costa del Sol with peace of mind
From initial orientation and property selection to legal checks and handing over the keys. Our Dutch-speaking team provides personal guidance at every step of your purchase in Spain.
Who is our buying guidance for?
Buying property in Spain works differently
Different regulations, documents, taxes, and local parties make buying in Spain less straightforward than often thought. We coordinate the entire process, ensure that specialist parties carry out the necessary checks, and keep you personally informed at every step.
Legally verified
A specialist lawyer checks the property and all associated documentation.
Insight into costs upfront
You will know which taxes and additional costs to expect before you buy. Not afterwards.
One dedicated team
We monitor progress and coordinate contact with all parties involved.
Who is our buying guidance for?
A second home in Spain
Looking for your own place on the Costa del Sol to enjoy regularly? From a modern apartment to an exclusive villa, we help you find the property and location that suit your lifestyle.
Property as an investment
Purchasing property for rental, capital growth, or to expand an existing portfolio. We assess opportunities based on factors including location, pricing, rental potential, and future prospects.
Living or emigrating to Spain
Planning to live on the Costa del Sol permanently or part-time? We look beyond just the property and take into account accessibility, amenities, schools, the local area, and your daily life in Spain.
From initial consultation to handing over the keys
Buying a property in Spain works differently than in other countries. With a clear process, local expertise and a single point of contact, you will know exactly where you stand at every step of the way.
Introduction and purchase profile
We will discuss your requirements, budget, preferred locations, and future plans. We will also look at how you intend to use the property: for personal use, rental, or a combination of both.
Personal property selection
Based on your purchase profile, we select suitable properties and developments. You will gain access to existing properties, new builds, and, where possible, exclusive or pre-launch listings.
Shortlisting and preparation
We will discuss the selected properties together. You let us know which options appeal to you, after which we will request additional information and create an efficient viewing schedule.
Viewings and honest advice
We will personally accompany you during viewings on the Costa del Sol. For each property, we discuss the possibilities, pricing, and key points, ensuring you can make an informed decision.
Negotiation and legal checks
Have you found the right property? We will then manage the offer and negotiations. A specialist lawyer will check the legal documents and terms before you enter into any final commitments.
Purchase and key handover
We monitor progress, coordinate contact with all parties involved, and guide you right up to the notary appointment and the handover of the keys.
We remain available for any questions afterwards, and our specialist teams can support you with interior design, rentals, and property management.

Personal after-sales

Ready to move in

Professional rental services
Would you like to rent out the property when you are not there yourself? Ultimate Rentals takes care of everything, including the presentation, bookings, guest communication and cleaning.

Frequently asked questions about buying in Spain
Answers to practical questions about purchasing, financing and additional costs for property in Spain.
Can't find your question? Please contact our team.
A Spanish bank account is not legally required in every situation to buy a property, but it is usually practical. You will use the account for local taxes, insurance, utilities and monthly expenses, among other things.
We will assist you with the preparations and can introduce you to banks and specialist parties from our network.
An NIE number is your personal identification number for financial and legal transactions in Spain. You need this number for purchasing property and many other official procedures.
We will guide you through the application process and coordinate this with a specialist lawyer where necessary.
The taxes you pay depend on factors such as whether you are buying a new-build or an existing property.
For existing properties, you generally pay transfer tax. For new-builds, you will usually deal with VAT and stamp duty. As an owner, you will also pay annual local and potentially national taxes.
A specialist lawyer or tax advisor will assess which taxes apply to your personal situation.
The lead time varies depending on the property and the situation. For existing properties, the process can often be completed within a few weeks or months. For new-builds, the completion date depends on the project's schedule and progress.
We will clarify the expected steps and timeline in advance and keep you informed throughout the process.
Yes, a large part of the purchasing process can be handled remotely. Documents can often be shared digitally, and with a power of attorney, a specialist lawyer can carry out certain actions on your behalf.
We will advise you at each stage when your personal presence is desirable or necessary.
