Purchasing a home in the Costa Blanca can be one of the most exciting moments of your life, whether you’re buying a holiday property by the sea or choosing your permanent residence.
In any case, buying property in this region requires careful planning and consideration.
This Costa Blanca Property Buying Guide will walk you through the essential steps—from initial research to the successful completion of your new home purchase.
1. Thorough Area Research
Before starting the purchase process, carry out detailed research on the area. The Costa Blanca offers a wide variety of towns, each with its own charm and characteristics: Benidorm, Altea, El Albir, Alfaz del Pi, Villajoyosa, La Nucia, Calpe, and Denia are just a few of the destinations where you could find your new home.
Some key factors to consider when choosing your ideal location include:
- Proximity to the beach
- Local services
- Entertainment options
- Access to key infrastructure
2. Define Your Needs and Budget
Once you’ve selected the area, clearly define your needs and set a realistic budget:
- Determine your financial capacity
- Consider the type of property you want: apartment, townhouse, villa…
- List your must-have features
- Set a budget that includes not only the purchase price but also taxes, legal fees, and agency costs
3. Professional Advice
Seeking professional advice is essential in the property buying process.
Our team of experienced real estate agents on the Costa Blanca is the perfect choice to guide you through the market, price trends, and available options.
Our specialists will support you throughout the process—from property selection, arranging personalized viewings, through to negotiation and closing the deal.
4. Viewing Selected Properties
Once we’ve helped you identify properties that match your criteria, we will schedule visits with you to those that meet your expectations.
If you don’t live in the Costa Blanca, we can offer accommodation in our Albir Confort holiday apartments, located just 500m from the beach. A discovery holiday that will be free of charge if you finalize the purchase of one of our homes.
Visiting the properties in person will allow you to assess their condition, construction quality, and exact location. Take the opportunity to explore the neighborhood, check access to services, and confirm that the property meets your expectations.
5. Negotiation and Offer Process
Once you find the right property, we’ll begin the negotiation process—where transparency and open communication are key to success.
Work closely with one of our real estate agents to submit an offer that reflects the property’s value and is acceptable to both buyer and seller.
6. Legal and Financial Due Diligence
Once the offer is accepted, we will help you begin the legal and financial checks.
You may use our in-house guidance or hire a solicitor specialized in real estate transactions to review the documentation and ensure everything is in order.
At the same time, secure financing if necessary, ensuring that you have the funds required to complete the purchase.
7. Contract Signing and Transaction Closure
After completing all due diligence:
- We’ll proceed with the signing of the purchase agreement—this formalizes the deal and establishes the final terms.
- Ensure you understand every clause before signing.
- After signing, we’ll move on to closing the transaction, which includes transferring the property and handing over the keys.
By following these steps carefully, you’ll be well on your way to successfully owning a home in one of the most valued international destinations—the Costa Blanca in Alicante, a true paradise with over 300 days of sunshine and 250 km of beaches under the unbeatable Mediterranean climate.
With the right guidance and detailed planning, you’ll soon be enjoying your new coastal home and all the wonders this charming region has to offer.
