What you are actually looking at
What you are actually looking at
Roccabox currently tracks 26 new developments in Málaga town, with prices running from a floor of €272k to a top end of €6.5M. The stage split is what shapes a buying decision here. Seventeen schemes are under construction, five are completed and ready to occupy, and only four sit in the pre-construction pipeline: three off-plan and one with licence granted. For a buyer comparing live inventory, that means most of the market can be inspected on site or walked through in finished form, and the genuinely early-stage opportunities are a small, fast-moving group. That small group is where the access question matters most.
Branded residences sit on a different clock
Branded residences, the projects carrying names such as Armani, Karl Lagerfeld and Fendi on the Costa del Sol, sit on a different timeline from standard new-build. Allocation is staged: early pricing, pre-release inventory and broker-only launch windows come before general public release, and the best-positioned units are often committed before a public brochure exists. The value of working with a broker is therefore access to that sequence, not any status attached to the name. Prices at the pre-launch stage remain indicative until the developer releases a confirmed price list, and we present them that way. The sub-areas of Málaga behave quite differently.
How they differ in practice
Málaga Este holds 11 developments from €472k, a coastal and eastern belt that suits buyers who want proximity to the seafront and established neighbourhoods. Central Málaga holds 10 developments from €279k and covers the widest price band, from compact urban apartments to larger premium homes. El Limonar, with one development from €915k, is a historic residential district known for villas and low-density streets close to the centre. Pinares de San Antón, also one development, starts at €2.7M and is the prestige end of the market, characterised by large plots and privacy. Málaga Oeste has one development from €710k, Churriana one from €390k near the airport side of the city, and Distrito Zeta one from €272k, the entry point of the whole market.
What we actually do for buyers
Single-development areas mean choice is limited, so timing and availability matter more there than in the larger areas. What Roccabox does is straightforward. We have worked the Costa del Sol for nine years and track this inventory live, so the numbers on this page reflect the market as it stands rather than a stale brochure. We shortlist against your budget, preferred stage and location, arrange viewings or remote walkthroughs, request the developer documentation, and coordinate with your independent lawyer through to completion. Our fee is paid by the developer, so the search and the guidance cost the buyer nothing.
How the 26 schemes break down
Off-plan locks today's price with bank-guaranteed deposits. Ready-to-move trades certainty for less entry headroom.

How buying a new-build in Spain actually works
Three-stage payment structure
Reservation deposit €5k–€20k holds the unit 15–30 days. Private contract (contrato de compraventa) signed within that window with 10% deposit transferred. On off-plan, deposits sit under mandatory bank guarantee. Completion 60+ days later, remainder paid at notary, title registered at Registro de la Propiedad.
Around 12–13% on top of price
10% IVA on the purchase price, 1.2% AJD stamp duty, ~1% legal fees plus IVA, notary and registry on a sliding scale, minimal Plusvalía at first sale. A €750k apartment lands around €90–97k in taxes and fees. Annual IBI thereafter is typically 0.4–1.1% of cadastral value.
Engage your own lawyer
Never the developer's lawyer. Your counsel reviews the private contract, verifies building licences, confirms bank guarantees for off-plan deposits, and rejects unfavourable completion clauses. Roccabox introduces vetted Spanish property lawyers at no fee.
60–70% LTV is the norm
Spanish banks lend up to 60–70% of the bank's valuation (not purchase price) to non-residents. Rates currently 3.5–5.5%. Need NIE, tax returns, bank statements. 4–8 weeks application to approval. Roccabox introduces non-resident mortgage brokers.
10-year structural guarantee
Snagging inspection one to three weeks pre-completion. Documented report binds the developer to remediation. Roccabox attends every snagging with our clients and photographs defects. Spanish law mandates a 10-year structural warranty and one year on finishes.
Guidance only. Obtain independent regulated counsel for your circumstances. Roccabox introduces vetted Spanish lawyers, mortgage brokers, and immigration counsel.
