Acquiring a newly built home is one of the most important \u2014and exciting\u2014 decisions you can make. Whether as a home or an investment, these types of properties offer clear advantages: energy efficiency, modern design, better qualities, and lower maintenance costs in the medium term. <\/p>\n
However, it is essential to know the process well and know what to check at each stage. Here we explain the key steps to buying a newly built home<\/strong> on the Costa del Sol safely and with guarantees. <\/p>\n Before you start searching, it is important to be clear about what you are looking for:<\/p>\n Will it be your primary residence or a second home?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Are you more interested in it as an investment for vacation rentals or future appreciation?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n What is your real budget, including taxes and associated expenses?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Tip:<\/em> Keep in mind an additional 10% to 13% on the sale price to cover VAT, notary, registration, and administration fees.<\/span><\/p>\n The Costa del Sol offers a wide variety of areas: from the dynamism of M\u00e1laga capital to the exclusivity of Marbella, the tranquility of Mijas, or the cosmopolitan atmosphere of Estepona.<\/p>\n Each location has its buyer and investment profile, so choose according to your lifestyle or the public you want to target if you are going to rent.<\/p>\n Review the trajectory of the developer and construction company. Make sure it has: <\/p>\n Building permit<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Project approved by the College of Architects<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Bank guarantees that guarantee your payments<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Clear and realistic delivery times<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n In our case, we accompany the client in each step and offer transparency from day one.<\/p>\n The quality report indicates what materials, finishes, carpentry, appliances, and air conditioning systems the home will include.<\/p>\n Tip:<\/em> Ask if there are customization or improvement options, especially if you buy off-plan.<\/p>\n Once you decide, you will sign a purchase agreement<\/strong> with the payment schedule and project details.<\/p>\n During the construction, we recommend that you stay informed of the progress and request visits if they are allowed. Some developers, like ours, offer periodic reports<\/strong> with photos of the progress. <\/p>\n Once the work is finished and the first occupancy license is obtained, you will sign the public deed and receive the keys to your new home.<\/p>\n From here you can move in, rent it, or decorate it to your liking<\/strong>, knowing that you are opening a new property with guarantees.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":754,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-753","blog","type-blog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
