Groups with too few listings to describe honestly are left out rather than shown with a caveat.

Does a sea view cost more here?
58% of these listings record a view, which is enough to ask the question.
| View | Homes | Median | Median size | Per m² |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sea view recorded | 45 | €876,000 | 120 m² | €6,958 |
| No view recorded | 41 | €455,000 | 115 m² | €4,175 |
"No view recorded" is missing information, not a confirmed absence. Compare the per-m² column rather than the headline price — sea-view homes are usually larger too.

Per square metre, not headline price — the places with the largest homes would otherwise look dearest simply for selling more house.
What it costs to buy
Modelled on a 3-bedroom apartment at €720,000 — the median asking price here.
| Asking price | €720,000 |
|---|---|
| IVA (10% on new build) | €72,000 |
| AJD (stamp duty, 1.2%) | €8,640 |
| Lawyer | €8,712 |
| Notary | €1,200 |
| Land registry | €900 |
| Total to complete | €811,452 |
- Taxes and fees
- €91,452
- As a share of price
- 12.7%
- Cash needed at 70% LTV
- €307,452
- Monthly mortgage
- €2,523
Choosing new build over an equivalent resale costs €30,240 more in tax here: €91,452 against €61,212. Banks lend against the price, never the taxes, so the taxes are cash.
What it costs to hold
| IBI (council tax) | €450 |
|---|---|
| Community fees | €480 |
| Insurance | €200 |
| Utilities | €1,680 |
| Maintenance | €300 |
| Per year | €3,110 |
| Per month | €259 |
A private pool instead of a communal one takes the yearly figure to €4,310.
What it might earn
| Letting pattern | Gross | Gross yield | After costs | True yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| High + shoulder (~120 days) | €22,500 | 3.1% | €7,994 | 1% |
| Full year (~200 days) | €34,600 | 4.8% | €14,173 | 1.7% |
"True yield" is income after letting expenses and running costs, measured against everything you actually spent to complete (€811,452) — not against the asking price. It is the number that decides whether the home pays for itself.
How this was worked out
What we assumed
- Costs modelled on a 3-bedroom apartment at €720,000, the median asking price here.
- New build: IVA 10% plus AJD 1.2% in Andalusia (Costa del Sol / Costa de Almería).
- Mortgage at 70% loan-to-value, 3.5% over 25 years — typical non-resident terms. Banks lend against the price, never the taxes.
- Rental modelled on nightly rates by property type and season, treating this as popular (coastal, near amenities). A specific home will beat or miss it.
- Running costs are conservative mid-range estimates; community fees vary widely between developments.
What this does not tell you
- Asking prices, not recorded sale prices. Completed sales typically land below.
- New build only. Says nothing about the resale market, which is larger and taxed differently.
- "New this month" counts listings entering our feed, which is not days on market.
- Rental income is modelled from nightly rates by property type and season. It does not vary by town, so it reflects what a home of this size and kind earns on this coast, not local demand here specifically.
Figures come from our own listings, read on 2026-08-20, and the money is calculated by the same module behind the site's calculators — so a report and a calculator cannot disagree. Regenerated monthly.
