Why an impartial check is worth gold

Many buyers fall in love with the view and the modern design. But on the Costa del Sol, factors like construction quality, sound insulation, moisture proofing, and the developer's reputation determine the long-term value of your investment.

I look where others only see the marketing layout. Before you sign a reservation, we analyze the project together.

What I check for you regarding new builds:

Developer Reputation

Has the developer delivered quality and met deadlines on past projects?

Technical Execution

Do the insulation and material choices meet the current coast-specific standards?

Value Stability

Are there planned constructions in the immediate neighborhood that might devalue your property?

Frequently Asked Questions

How safe is my money during construction?

In Spain, developers are legally required to provide a bank guarantee (Aval Bancario) or an insurance policy for all funds paid. I verify these documents exist before you make your first payment.

What warranties exist after completion?

Under the Spanish Building Act (LOE): 1 year for finishings, 3 years for habitability defects, and 10 years for structural integrity.

What is the "Libro del Edificio"?

It is the "medical record" of your home: technical drawings, manuals, and certificates. It is crucial for a successful future resale.

Are community fees high for new builds?

Yes, especially in projects with pools, gyms, and security services. I prepare a realistic calculation so you know exactly what your monthly costs will be.
