ABOUT US

Who are we, exactly?

A family-run estate agency working one stretch of the Costa del Sol — Torremolinos, Benalmádena, Fuengirola and Málaga.

We're a family-run estate agency working the Torremolinos stretch of the coast, helping buyers, sellers and investors.

What makes us different isn't size — it's that one bilingual advisor handles your entire journey, supported by an in-house team covering court appraisals, holiday let management, EPC, renovations and Modelo 210.

Personal service: same advisor from first call to notary signing — and, if you hire rental management, for years after. We meet you at the property, anywhere in the area we cover, or on a video call while you are still in the UK. Written engagement letter before any work, no break-up penalties.

Our promise
Local knowledge, personal attention and integrated legal services on the Costa del Sol.
WHY DEMO INMOBILIARIA

Why choose us over an international brand?

Five real differences against Engel & Völkers, Lucas Fox or franchise networks, verifiable on every call.

Modern white villa with pool and palm tree under a blue sky — property managed by Demo Inmobiliaria

Same advisor end-to-end

Continuity from first call to keys and beyond. International brands rotate your agent by commission tier; we do not.

Integrated legal & technical services

Court appraisal, LAU compliance, Modelo 210, EPC and renovation under one engagement. One contact, no external referrals.

Transparent fees before signing

Written fee schedule before any commitment. Up to 30% lower than international brands for equivalent service.

On the ground where you are buying

We work Torremolinos, Benalmádena, Fuengirola and Málaga in person — we see the block, the entrance and the street before valuing. Most international brands sit in Marbella; portals never visit the building at all.

BILINGUAL SERVICE

Who do we work with — and in which languages?

We serve clients in English and Spanish with a native bilingual team. Verifiable, not Google Translate.

British and Irish buyers are our largest international segment: post-Brexit specialists handling NIE, Modelo 210, UK-Spain dual taxation, non-resident mortgages and currency exchange via a partner with preferential rates.

We also serve Scandinavian, German, Dutch and French EU buyers (simpler residency, similar fiscal needs) and international investors needing yield analysis and fiscal structuring.

It widens the buyer pool and removes contract misunderstandings that cost real money.

2026 MARKET

Is now a good time to buy on the Costa del Sol?

It depends on your horizon and profile. Generally, yes.

For buying with a 5+ year horizon, yes. International demand (UK, Ireland, Scandinavia, Germany) stays strong post-Brexit and prices keep rising in prime locations. Adjacent areas offer better value-to-growth ratios.

For selling, the moment is good in active-demand areas: Torremolinos beachfront, La Carihuela, Puerto Marina, Los Boliches, Málaga centre. Average 3-6 months with right pricing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Frequently asked questions

The questions UK and Irish buyers ask before hiring an estate agent on the Costa del Sol. Direct answers.

  • Are estate agents in Spain reliable?

    Most are, but quality varies. Look for AICAT membership, comparables they will actually show you, written fees and certified bilingual staff. We tick all these plus court appraisals and turnkey renovation.

  • What are the fees for estate agents in Spain?

    Typically 3-6% of sale price + 21% VAT. Costa del Sol average 4-5%. Covers valuation, photography, portals, viewings and notary. With us, fees are agreed in writing before the assignment.

  • In 2026 international demand stays strong (UK, Ireland, Scandinavia, Germany) and prices keep rising in prime locations. With a 5+ year horizon, yes.

  • The NIE is the Spanish tax ID required for any non-Spanish citizen buying property or opening a bank account. Apply via consulate at home or in person in Spain (3-5 weeks). We coordinate it — most UK buyers receive it in 4-6 weeks.

  • Brexit didn't restrict UK buyers — Spain still welcomes non-EU buyers with the same property rights. Changes: 90/180-day rule, Golden Visa (€500k+ grants residency), ETIAS authorisation (€7) effective 2026, dual-taxation on rental income.

  • Modelo 210 is the Spanish non-resident income tax return. File annually for personal use (1.1-2% of cadastral × 19%) and quarterly if rented. We offer fiscal representation: quarterly and annual so you never miss a deadline.

  • The UK-Spain Double Taxation Treaty prevents paying tax twice. Rental income: declare in both, pay in Spain first (Modelo 210), UK gives a foreign tax credit on Self Assessment. A bilingual advisor coordinates both filings.

  • Yes. Max LTV 60-70% (vs 80% for residents), terms 25-30 years, fixed or Euribor-linked. You need NIE, income proof, bank statements, credit report and Spanish bank account. We compare offers across banks.

  • Includes VFT licence, marketing on Airbnb/Booking, guest screening, cleaning, maintenance and quarterly Modelo 210. Monthly statements, 24/7 emergency contact. Fees 15-22% of rent.

  • The CEE is mandatory before selling or renting and registered with the Junta de Andalucía. A qualified technician assigns rating A-G based on consumption and emissions. We coordinate it in 48-72 hours including registration, from €90 for flats up to 80 m².

  • Mandatory licence to rent to holidaymakers in Andalucía. Requirements: ITE, minimum equipment, Tourism Registry. Without VFT you cannot advertise on Airbnb or Booking; fines €18,000-150,000. We handle the full VFT in 30-45 days.

  • Continuity (same advisor end-to-end vs commission-tier rotation), integrated services (court appraisal, full management, EPC, renovation, legal in one engagement) and fees (up to 30% lower).
