What is your purchase budget?

The property price, excluding costs. Add 10 to 15% in buying costs, depending on the region.

Enter your budget in euros, between 20,000 and 5,000,000. For example 250,000.

Where can we call you back?

The head of the office nearest to your project calls you back within 24 working hours, with no obligation.

Enter your first name.

Enter your last name.

Check your email address, for example name@example.com.

When would you like to buy?

What type of property are you looking for?

The type that interests you most.

Choose a property type.

How will you finance the purchase?

One choice only.

How much deposit can you put down?

The amount you put in without borrowing. Enter 0 if you are borrowing the full amount.

Alveo Finance, the group's mortgage broker, can take your application to Spanish banks.

What worries you most?

Optional. You can choose more than one.

Your contact speaks English, from the first call to the signing. We translate the documents and explain each step to you before you commit.

NIE, bank account, buyer's tax, document translation: our teams handle it for you, right up to signing at the notary's.

Our experts do the pre-viewings on site, on video with you. You only travel to sign, and we prepare a power of attorney if you cannot come.

Before any offer, we check the property: debts, charges, mortgages, planning, licences and community of owners. You know what you are buying.

The notary checks the formalities and the seller has their own lawyer. We bring in an independent lawyer who defends only your interests and checks the preliminary contract before you sign.

Search, viewings, negotiation, paperwork: we take care of it. You get a written report in English at each step and you keep control of the decisions.

Anything to add?

Optional. Constraints, wishes, timing: anything that helps narrow the search.

Thank you, your project has been sent.

Frequently asked questions about property in Benalmádena

Can a foreigner buy property in Benalmádena?

+

Yes. Spain places no nationality restrictions on buying property. You do, however, need an NIE, the foreigner identification number, which is required to sign at the notary's and to open a Spanish bank account. We handle this step as part of our support.

What costs should you budget for on top of the property price?

+

As a rule, allow 10 to 15% of the asking price. This covers transfer tax (ITP) for a resale property or VAT for a new build, notary fees, land registry registration and administrative costs. Our online buying costs calculator gives a detailed estimate by region and type of property.

Do you need to be there in person to buy in Benalmádena?

+

No. Many of our clients buy from abroad. Viewings can be done by video call with a written report, and signing at the notary's is possible with a power of attorney. On site, we check what photos do not show: the real condition, the immediate surroundings, any nuisances, compliance.

What checks do you carry out before an offer?

+

We check the property's legal status at the land registry, that there are no debts or unpaid charges, planning compliance, the state of the community of owners and whether the price is consistent with recent sales in the area. These checks take place before any offer, not after.

How long does it take to buy a property in Benalmádena?

+

From the first viewing to signing, it generally takes two to four months. The timing depends mainly on getting the NIE, any financing and the notary's availability. A cash purchase with a complete file can go faster.
