Nueva Andalucía Property for Sale: The Complete Guide for British Buyers
Most people who move to the Costa del Sol say they want to be close to Puerto Banús without actually living in Puerto Banús. Puerto Banús has the marina, the restaurants, the energy. It also has summer noise, tourist crowds and community fees that will make your eyes water. Nueva Andalucía sits directly behind it, five minutes on foot from the marina, yet feels like a completely different world: a low-rise residential neighbourhood of golf courses, pine trees, good schools and the kind of quiet that lets you sleep past seven.
It is not the cheapest part of the coast. It is not the flashiest. But for a particular type of British buyer, often someone who has done their research, knows the area and wants quality without the circus, it consistently comes out near the top of the shortlist.
This guide covers everything you need to make an informed decision: current prices, the golf landscape, schools, rental yields, the buying process and the honest downsides nobody mentions in the listing.
What Is Nueva Andalucía?
Nueva Andalucía is a residential urbanisation within the municipality of Marbella, sitting between Puerto Banús to the south-west and Marbella town to the east. It occupies a slightly elevated position above the coast, with the foothills of the Sierra Blanca visible to the north. The area covers roughly 12 square kilometres and is almost entirely given over to residential property, golf courses and the facilities that serve them.
Technically it is a barrio (neighbourhood) of Marbella, not a standalone town. Its administration, bin collection, local policing and planning rules fall under Marbella’s ayuntamiento. In practice it functions like an independent community. Most residents barely visit Marbella town centre except for bureaucratic appointments.
The local nickname is the “Golf Valley” or, in Spanish, “Valle del Golf.” Five full-length golf courses sit within the boundaries of the urbanisation or immediately adjacent to it. This concentration is unusual even by Costa del Sol standards, where courses are plentiful, and it defines the character of the whole area.
The Golf Valley: Five World-Class Courses on Your Doorstep
The golf offer in Nueva Andalucía is the primary reason many buyers choose it over comparable neighbourhoods elsewhere on the coast. Here are the five courses:
Real Club de Golf Las Brisas was designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. and opened in 1968. It hosted the 1987 World Cup of Golf and has a long-standing reputation as one of the most technically demanding courses on the Costa del Sol. Narrow fairways, water hazards and a parkland setting reward precision over power. Green fees in 2026 run approximately €130 to €200 per round depending on season.
Los Naranjos Golf Club, also a Robert Trent Jones Sr. design, opened in 1977. Its broader, parkland layout with mature citrus and olive trees is more forgiving than Las Brisas and popular with higher-handicap golfers and societies. Green fees run €85 to €140.
Aloha Golf Club opened in 1975, designed by Javier Arana. Arana also designed El Saler near Valencia, consistently ranked among Spain’s top five courses. Aloha is primarily a members club with limited visitor tee times, but if you own property in the area, membership is worth investigating. Green fees for visitors run €90 to €135.
La Quinta Golf and Country Club sits at the boundary between Nueva Andalucía and Benahavís. Its three nine-hole loops can be combined in three different pairings, offering variety for regular players. Green fees run €60 to €100.
Marbella Club Golf Resort at Benahavís is technically just outside the urbanisation but accessible in under ten minutes by car. Green fees €80 to €130.
Property on or adjacent to any of these courses commands a premium of 15 to 25% above comparable non-frontline stock. A two-bedroom apartment on the fairway at Las Brisas or Aloha will typically cost €100,000 to €150,000 more than an equivalent apartment one street back with no golf view.
Nueva Andalucía’s Sub-Areas Explained
The urbanisation is not uniform. Different parts have distinct characters and price points, and knowing the difference matters before you start arranging viewings.
Rio Verde is the section closest to Puerto Banús, running down towards the marina and the N-340 coastal road. It has a high density of apartment complexes, many of them built in the 1970s and 1980s and now in demand as renovation projects. Prices here are lower than the golf-frontline zones, starting from around €260,000 for a two-bedroom apartment. Walking access to the marina is the core selling point; the trade-off is that the older stock needs investment.
Las Brisas is the golf-frontline zone around the Real Club de Golf Las Brisas. Developments are generally more recent, gated, and well-maintained, and the mix leans towards two- and three-bedroom apartments with communal pools. This is where most of the professionally managed holiday-let stock sits.
Los Naranjos has a higher proportion of detached villas and is generally the quietest sub-area. Plot sizes are larger, privacy is better, and prices reflect both. Villas in Los Naranjos typically start from €1.2 million.
Aloha mixes larger apartment complexes (Aloha Gardens, Aloha Hill Club) with individual villas. The apartment stock tends to be more spacious and better quality than Rio Verde, with more recent builds included. Price range: €350,000 to €550,000 for two- and three-bedroom apartments.
La Cerquilla and El Higueral are the residential zones at the northern end of the urbanisation, bordering Benahavís. They are quieter, more villa-focused, and see less tourist traffic. Access to the AP-7 motorway is slightly faster from here.
La Resina Golf is a newer gated residential area on the western edge, with a boutique golf course and a mix of townhouses and semi-detached villas. Popular with buyers wanting new-build quality with golf access at slightly lower price points than Las Brisas frontline.
Property Types: What Is Available in Nueva Andalucía
The property mix is broad enough to suit most buying profiles.
Apartments and penthouses: The most common entry point. Two-bedroom apartments in gated communities with communal pools range from €320,000 (needs work, Rio Verde) to €750,000-plus (recent, golf frontline). Penthouses with private roof terraces add a further premium of 20 to 40% over equivalent lower-floor units.
Townhouses and semi-detached villas: Popular with families wanting private garden space without the maintenance burden of a full detached villa. Prices range from €450,000 to €900,000 depending on size, location and condition.
Detached villas: Standard four-bedroom villas in established urbanisations: €950,000 to €2.5 million. Golf-frontline or elevated with sea views: €2.5 million to €6 million. Ultra-luxury: €6 million to €15 million-plus.
Off-plan and new-build: Active in the northern sections of the urbanisation and on the outskirts towards Benahavís. Typical pricing for new two-bedroom apartments starts at around €450,000; new villas from €1.4 million.
Nueva Andalucía Property Prices in 2026
Prices have risen consistently over the past three years. The average asking price per square metre across the urbanisation sits at approximately €4,200 to €5,000/m2 for apartments and €3,800 to €4,800/m2 for villas (which have larger floor areas and therefore lower per-m2 averages). Prime golf-frontline and panoramic sea-view properties reach €6,000 to €8,500/m2.
For context: Marbella Golden Mile averages €6,000 to €9,000/m2; Puerto Banús €5,500 to €8,000/m2 for frontline stock. Nueva Andalucía sits in the sweet spot below both while sharing much of the same infrastructure and lifestyle access.
Year-on-year price growth in 2025: approximately 9 to 12% (Colegio de Registradores de España / Ministerio de Vivienda data). Demand continues to outpace supply, particularly for turnkey apartments under €600,000 and renovated villas under €2 million.
Typical reference prices (2026):
- Two-bedroom apartment, renovated, gated complex, shared pool: €380,000 to €520,000
- Three-bedroom penthouse, golf-frontline: €620,000 to €950,000
- Three-bedroom townhouse with private garden: €480,000 to €750,000
- Four-bedroom detached villa, established urbanisation: €950,000 to €1.8 million
- Five-bedroom villa, golf frontline or sea view: €2.5 million to €6 million
Always add 10 to 12% on top of the purchase price for buying costs: ITP transfer tax (7% in Andalusia), notary and registry fees (approximately 1.5%) and legal fees (1% to 1.5% plus IVA). Our complete buying guide covers the full cost breakdown.
Why British Buyers Choose Nueva Andalucía
The British presence in Nueva Andalucía is long-established. UK buyers have been purchasing here since the 1970s, and the area has the infrastructure to match: English-speaking estate agents, solicitors, dentists and doctors. The Swans International School runs the UK National Curriculum. Aloha College offers the International Baccalaureate. You can find a Sunday roast within walking distance of most urbanisations.
But the appeal goes beyond familiarity. The practical case for Nueva Andalucía over Marbella centre or Torremolinos:
- Golf year-round: 300-plus days of sunshine and five courses within ten minutes. For committed golfers, nowhere else on the coast matches this course density.
- Puerto Banús access without Puerto Banús prices: The marina, restaurants, beach clubs and nightlife are five minutes away. You get the benefit without the €700-per-month community fee that comes with a marina apartment.
- Schools: Two quality international schools within or adjacent to the urbanisation. For families with school-age children, this removes a major anxiety from the relocation decision.
- Rental income: Holiday-let income is solid both in summer (beach proximity) and winter (golf tourism). An investor buyer can offset costs meaningfully.
- Capital growth: Consistent price appreciation driven by limited land supply and sustained international demand.
The Puerto Banús Factor
It is worth spelling this out because it shapes the value proposition of the whole area. Puerto Banús is one of the Costa del Sol’s two most famous addresses, the other being the Golden Mile. It has a superyacht marina, approximately 300 shops including most major luxury brands, 40-plus restaurants, beach clubs including Nikki Beach and Ocean Club, and a nightlife strip that in high summer runs until 6am.
From most parts of Nueva Andalucía you can walk to the marina in 10 to 20 minutes on foot, or reach it in five minutes by car. This gives you day-trip access to one of the coast’s premium leisure destinations without living inside its noise envelope.
For a fuller assessment of Puerto Banús itself, including current property prices and an honest look at whether the marina premium is still justified, read our Puerto Banús property guide.
Getting Around: Roads, Buses and the AP-7
The AP-7 motorway is the main artery. From Nueva Andalucía:
- Puerto Banús: 5 minutes by car
- Marbella centre: 15 minutes by car
- San Pedro de Alcántara: 10 minutes
- Estepona: 25 to 30 minutes
- Sotogrande: 50 to 60 minutes
- Málaga city: 55 to 65 minutes
- Gibraltar: 50 to 60 minutes
A car is effectively essential for daily life. There are local buses running through the urbanisation to Puerto Banús and Marbella, but frequency is modest and routes do not reach all parts of the area. Most residents drive for school runs, supermarket shops and anything beyond walking distance.
The N-340 coastal road is a useful toll-free alternative for short hops. Taxis and Uber operate throughout the area at reasonable rates by UK standards.
Flying Home: Málaga Airport Is 50 Minutes Away
Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (IATA: AGP) is the main gateway. From Nueva Andalucía it is 50 to 60 minutes by car via the N-340 and A-45 (toll-free) or approximately 45 minutes via the AP-7 toll road.
Flight options are broad. EasyJet, Ryanair and Jet2 all serve Málaga from multiple UK airports, including London Gatwick, London Stansted, Bristol, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds Bradford and Edinburgh. In summer, budget return fares to UK airports start from around £60 to £120. In winter they frequently drop to £40 to £80, which makes the off-season visits that extend the holiday-rental calendar economically sensible.
Gibraltar Airport (GIB) is an alternative for western Costa del Sol buyers. From Nueva Andalucía it is approximately 55 minutes. British Airways and easyJet run London Heathrow routes from Gibraltar, which suits business travellers needing the Heathrow connection.
Schools for British Families in Nueva Andalucía
Two international schools operate within or immediately adjacent to the urbanisation:
Aloha College sits within the urbanisation, roughly a ten-minute drive from most addresses. It follows the International Baccalaureate curriculum from early years through to the IB Diploma at 18. Fees run approximately €9,000 to €14,000 per year depending on year group. The school has a strong academic reputation and a genuinely international student body. British children who have not sat GCSEs typically find the IB transition manageable; teachers are experienced with the adjustment.
Swans International School is five minutes from most of Nueva Andalucía. It follows the English National Curriculum, including GCSEs and A-Levels, which matters to British families who intend to return to the UK or who want straightforward university application compatibility. Fees are slightly lower: approximately €5,500 to €9,500 per year.
Further afield: ISE International School in Estepona (British curriculum, 30 minutes), The British International School Marbella, and the English International College in Marbella are within commutable range. Our Marbella area guide covers the wider school landscape in the Marbella municipality.
Healthcare: Private Clinics and Hospitals Nearby
HC Marbella International Hospital is in Marbella, about 15 minutes from most of Nueva Andalucía. It has a high proportion of English-speaking staff, an emergency department and covers most specialist disciplines. It is broadly regarded as the most internationally oriented private hospital on the coast.
Quirón Hospital Marbella is approximately 20 minutes away. Part of the Quirón national chain, it has strong cardiology, orthopaedics and oncology departments.
Red Cross Clinic Marbella offers more affordable private consultations and a 24-hour emergency service.
As a non-resident property owner you will not have access to the Spanish state health system. Private health insurance typically costs €80 to €200 per month per person, depending on age and medical history. Main providers are Sanitas, Adeslas, Asisa and DKV. If you plan to become resident, the Non-Lucrative Visa requires private cover as a condition of approval.
More detail on healthcare costs, insurance options and what the state system covers is in our Costa del Sol healthcare guide.
Beaches: Access and What to Expect
Nueva Andalucía does not sit on the beach. The urbanisation is set back from the coast by 10 to 20 minutes on foot. The nearest beaches:
Playa de Puerto Banús / Playa del Duque: The wide sandy strip directly below the marina. Clean, well-serviced with sunbeds, showers and chiringuito beach bars. In July and August it fills up early; in May, June, September and October it is excellent.
Cortijo Blanco Beach: A slightly quieter stretch immediately east of Puerto Banús, backed by a residential urbanisation. Less tourist traffic than the marina beach.
Playa de Guadalmina: 10 to 15 minutes west by car. Popular with families and slightly less commercial.
None of the nearby beaches are what you would call secluded. If wilderness beach access is a priority, the coast east of Nerja or the less developed stretches near Tarifa may be more relevant.
Restaurants, Cafés and Nightlife
Nueva Andalucía has a reasonable local restaurant scene and immediate proximity to Puerto Banús’s wider offer. A few useful reference points within the urbanisation:
El Gamonal (Avenida El Gamonal): A long-standing Spanish restaurant popular with residents. Tapas and full meals, outdoor terrace, sensible prices by the standards of the area.
Mosh (Urb. Aloha): A modern brunch and cocktail spot, popular with the British expat community at weekends and the place most people end up after the Sunday golf round.
Chiringuito Playa Ancon: Below Puerto Banús, this beach chiringuito does solid fresh fish at honest prices and is far less show-off than the beach clubs.
The Harbour Grill (Puerto Banús marina): British-owned, popular with holiday-home owners returning from the courses, good steaks and a menu priced at marina rates (budget €40 to €60 per head with wine).
Puerto Banús itself adds 40-plus restaurants spanning Japanese, Peruvian, Lebanese and traditional Andalusian, plus beach clubs where food runs all day from around €15 for a main course in a casual setting to €80-plus at Ocean Club or Nikki Beach.
Supermarkets, Shopping and Day-to-Day Life
Day-to-day life in Nueva Andalucía is genuinely practical. Within the urbanisation or a short drive:
- Mercadona on Avenida Manolete: the best all-round general grocery shop
- La Colonia in Rio Verde: well stocked for international and British-specific products (Heinz baked beans, PG Tips, Marmite)
- Lidl on the road to San Pedro: good for fresh produce and basics
- Farmacia, dentist, optician, hairdresser, gym (multiple) all accessible within the urbanisation
- Banks: Bankinter, Unicaja and Sabadell branches in Puerto Banús
- La Cañada shopping centre (San Pedro, 10 minutes): Zara, H&M, El Corte Inglés supermarket, multiplex cinema
For anything more specialised, Marbella town centre is 15 to 20 minutes. Málaga city, with its full range of retail, IKEA and specialist services, is one hour.
Buying Off-Plan in Nueva Andalucía: What Is Happening in 2026
New development is active in the northern and eastern parts of the urbanisation, where larger plots remain. Current projects include developments near La Cerquilla (mix of apartments and semi-detached villas from €480,000 for two-bedroom units) and around the La Quinta golf area (villas from €1.4 million).
The standard off-plan payment structure in Spain: 10% reservation fee, further stage payments during construction (typically 30 to 40% more), final balance on completion. Completion periods on current projects run 24 to 36 months from reservation. Under Spanish law, all stage payments must be protected by a bank guarantee (aval bancario). If the developer fails to complete, you recover your money. Our new-build buying guide covers the bank guarantee requirement and the other key differences from buying resale.
Nueva Andalucía’s off-plan market has seen consistent appreciation during the construction period. Buyers who reserved in 2021 to 2022 at pre-build prices saw their completion values rise 25 to 40% in many cases by the time they collected keys. The structural supply constraint (limited buildable land within the urbanisation) supports continued demand pressure, though past performance is not a guarantee.
Resale Properties: The Current Market
The resale market is active. Properties in good condition and correctly priced typically receive offers within 60 to 90 days. Well-priced, turnkey-condition apartments in popular complexes such as Aloha Gardens, Las Brisas Golf and Los Naranjos Golf Club sell considerably faster, often within 30 days of listing.
Key dynamics for British buyers in 2026:
Currency: The pound has fluctuated between €1.13 and €1.19 against the euro over the past 12 months. On a €500,000 purchase, that range represents a difference of nearly £20,000. A forward contract with a specialist currency broker can lock in the current rate for up to two years. See our currency hedging guide for the mechanics and a comparison of FCA-authorised providers.
Negotiation: Sellers are rarely desperate. This is a liquid, internationally demanded market. Expecting a 15% discount below asking price is unrealistic for well-maintained stock. Five percent below asking is a reasonable starting position in most cases; 8 to 10% is achievable on property that has been sitting for four months or more.
Due diligence: Properties that have been on the market for more than six months usually have a fixable reason: overpricing, condition, or an unresolved legal issue. A solicitor check on title, nota simple, occupation licence and community debt certificate is not optional.
Rental Investment Potential
Nueva Andalucía generates solid rental returns, particularly for golf-adjacent properties and those within walking distance of Puerto Banús.
For short-term holiday lets you need a VFT tourist licence from Andalusia’s Junta. The process involves a DAFO certificate, habitation certificate and formal registration with the Junta portal. It takes two to four months and enforcement against unlicensed listings has increased significantly since 2024.
Indicative gross yields (2026 market data):
- Two-bedroom apartment, golf views, short-let licence: 5.0% to 6.5% gross
- Three-bedroom villa with private pool, short-let licence: 5.5% to 8.0% gross
- Long-term residential rental (12-month contract): 3.8% to 4.8% gross
The short-let premium is higher in Nueva Andalucía than in purely beach destinations because golf tourism extends the season. October through March occupancy at a golf-adjacent apartment with good marketing runs 30 to 40%, compared to near-zero for a beach apartment without other attractions. Over a full year, that adds up significantly.
Net yield after management fees (20 to 25% of revenue), maintenance, community fees, insurance, IBI and non-resident income tax runs 1.5 to 2.5 percentage points below gross. At 6% gross, expect 3.5% to 4.5% net. That is realistic, not promotional.
As a UK-resident owner with Spanish rental income, you file Spanish Form 210 quarterly and declare the income on your UK self-assessment. The Spain-UK double tax treaty prevents double taxation.
The Property Buying Process: Step by Step
The process in Nueva Andalucía follows the standard Spanish procedure. Brief overview:
- NIE number: Required before you can sign any Spanish contract. Obtainable via the Spanish consulate in the UK or in person at a police station in Spain. Full process in our NIE guide.
- Spanish bank account: Required for mortgage payments, IBI, community fees and utility direct debits.
- Mortgage pre-approval (if applicable): Non-residents can typically borrow 60 to 70% of the purchase price; income documentation required.
- Offer and reservation: A reservation contract (reserva) with a deposit of €6,000 to €10,000 takes the property off the market.
- Due diligence: Your solicitor checks title, occupation licence, planning status, community debt certificate and nota simple. Allow two to four weeks.
- Arras contract: A private purchase agreement where you pay 10% of the purchase price (less the reservation deposit). If you pull out, you lose the 10%. If the seller pulls out, they return double.
- Completion: At the notary, both parties sign the escritura (title deed). You pay the balance, transfer taxes and notary fees, and receive the keys.
- Post-completion: Register at the Land Registry, pay ITP at the tax office, set up IBI direct debit, arrange a Spanish will.
Total timeline: 8 to 12 weeks for resale; 24 to 36 months for off-plan.
Legal and Tax Notes for British Buyers
Transfer tax (ITP): 7% on the resale purchase price in Andalusia. This is the buyer’s cost.
New-build taxes: 10% IVA (VAT) plus 1.2% AJD (stamp duty equivalent).
Annual property tax (IBI): Set by Marbella council at approximately 0.9% of cadastral value. For a typical two-bedroom apartment in Nueva Andalucía (cadastral value usually €90,000 to €150,000), IBI runs €810 to €1,350 per year.
Non-resident income tax (Form 210): If you are not a Spanish tax resident, you pay an annual imputed income tax on your property even if you do not rent it out. At 24% on 1.1% of cadastral value for post-2012 assessments, this typically amounts to €240 to €396 per year for a standard apartment. If you rent the property, income is taxed at 24% gross with no expense deductions (UK residents post-Brexit, unlike EU citizens who pay 19% on net income).
Wealth tax (Impuesto sobre el Patrimonio): Andalusia has a 100% bonus for residents. Non-residents still pay Spanish wealth tax on Spanish assets above €700,000. Take specific advice if buying at this level.
Spanish will: Strongly recommended for all property owners. Under EU Succession Regulation Brussels IV you can elect English law to govern your Spanish estate, bypassing Spain’s forced heirship rules. Without a Spanish will, using a UK will in Spain requires apostille, sworn translation and a court procedure costing €1,000 to €2,000 and taking several months. Our Spanish will guide covers the process and costs in full.
All of the above is a summary for orientation. Tax rules change and individual circumstances vary. Always take specific advice from a qualified Spanish lawyer or gestor before exchanging contracts.
Working with a Property Finder in Nueva Andalucía
Nueva Andalucía has dozens of estate agencies, many of them co-listing the same properties. The same two-bedroom apartment in Aloha Gardens can appear on 30 different agency websites. This is standard practice in the Spanish market: agents share inventory freely, and almost every listed property can technically be accessed through almost any agent.
What a property finder does differently: rather than representing a selection of listed properties, we work from a brief of what you actually want. We contact agents across the market, filter out properties that do not match, and arrange viewings only for genuine candidates. We also access off-market properties through our network, including developer pocket listings, private sellers who have not listed yet, and properties held back from public portals for discreet sale.
For British buyers who are not making frequent trips to Spain, this removes the most common frustration: flying out for a viewing week to find the properties online did not match the description, or that the best ones were already under offer.
Our service is free to buyers. We are paid by the selling agent or developer on completion. There is no conflict of interest in recommending unsuitable properties because we have no inventory of our own to sell.

Frequently Asked Questions About Buying in Nueva Andalucía
Is Nueva Andalucía a good area to buy in 2026?
For buyers who want quality residential life close to Puerto Banús, with strong international schools and golf on the doorstep, yes. Prices have risen consistently and the structural case for continued appreciation is solid: limited buildable land within the urbanisation combined with sustained international demand. It is not the cheapest option on the coast, but it offers the strongest combination of lifestyle access and long-term value among Marbella’s residential sub-areas.
What is the cheapest type of property available in Nueva Andalucía?
The entry point is studio and one-bedroom apartments in older Rio Verde complexes, where resale prices start from around €220,000 to €260,000. These tend to be smaller (40 to 55m2), dated and need refurbishment. The more realistic entry point for a liveable, good-condition two-bedroom apartment in a gated complex with a pool is €350,000 to €420,000.
Can I rent out my property in Nueva Andalucía?
Yes, subject to obtaining a VFT tourist licence from the Junta de Andalucía for short-term lets. The licence requires a habitation certificate, a DAFO compliance certificate and formal registration. The process takes two to four months. Long-term lets of 11 months or more under the Ley de Arrendamientos Urbanos do not require a tourist licence.
Do I need a car to live in Nueva Andalucía?
For most purposes, yes. The urbanisation is walkable within its own boundaries and to Puerto Banús, but accessing Marbella town, schools (for some sub-areas) and large supermarkets is impractical without a vehicle. Local bus services exist but are infrequent and do not cover all parts of the urbanisation.
What are the community fees like in Nueva Andalucía?
They vary considerably by complex. Apartments in standard gated communities with gardens and pools: €200 to €450 per month. Newer or larger developments with better amenities: €400 to €700 per month. Large private villas in gated sub-urbanisations with security and communal facilities: €600 to €1,500 per month. Always verify the exact fee and the community’s financial reserves before making an offer. Request the last two years of community accounts as part of due diligence.
How far is Nueva Andalucía from Málaga airport?
Approximately 50 to 60 minutes by car. The most direct toll-free route is via the N-340 coast road and A-45. The AP-7 motorway is faster in off-peak hours (around 45 minutes, toll €4 to €7). Málaga airport has direct year-round flights to multiple UK cities.
Is it safe to buy property in Nueva Andalucía as a British citizen post-Brexit?
Yes. British citizens retain full rights to purchase property in Spain. The main post-Brexit differences: you need a visa to stay more than 90 days in any 180-day period (unless you have residency), rental income and imputed income are taxed at 24% gross rather than the 19% net rate EU citizens pay, and non-resident mortgage LTV is capped at 60 to 70% rather than up to 80% for EU citizens. None of these affect your right to buy, own or sell property.
Your Next Step
Nueva Andalucía suits a particular type of buyer well: someone who wants to be close to the action but not in it, who values golf access, schools and long-term capital growth over the lowest possible price, and who is buying a lifestyle as much as a property.
If that sounds like the right fit, the next step is simple. Tell us what you are looking for: bedroom count, budget, golf-frontline or not, holiday investment or permanent base. We will put together a shortlist of properties matching your brief, including any off-market options available in the area at the time.
