Balance, in context.

Balance is a 75-apartment residential development in Cerrado del Águila, Mijas Costa, conceived for owner-occupiers and investors seeking a well-connected coastal address at a considered price point. Construction started in March 2025, with delivery scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2027.

The scheme comprises two- and three-bedroom apartments ranging from 81 to 98 m², with first-floor units offering private gardens and upper floors delivering terraces of up to 100 m² facing the Mediterranean. Over 13,000 m² of communal gardens, a central pool with chillout zone, a gym, social club, and barbecue areas form the shared amenity layer. All kitchens are delivered fully equipped.

With 45 of 49 tracked units already sold, the development is effectively at final-release stage — a fact that speaks both to demand and to the limited remaining window for buyers.

Off-plan entry typically offers the largest pricing headroom at the earliest stages. The advantage narrows as construction progresses — at completion the unit is priced at market. Balance currently sits in the Under construction band.

Indicative uplift modelled against comparable new-build completions

Roccabox analyst view

Balance is not a speculative pre-launch proposition — construction is active and the delivery date of Q4 2027 is fixed. The more pertinent consideration is scarcity: with 45 of 49 units sold, buyer choice is near exhausted. The area's median resale price sits at approximately €3,044 per m² ( data); Balance's entry price of €395,000 across an 81 m² apartment implies a rate broadly in line with the resale market, without the renovation risk or vacancy uncertainty that resale stock in this corridor typically carries.

Reserving early

Why buyers reserve at this stage

Personalisation window

Reserving during the Under construction phase gives buyers genuine input into layout, finishes and basement use ahead of handover — a window that closes as the build advances.

Scarcity and specification

4 of 49 units remain. The plot sizes, orientation and amenity package on this scheme are not easily replicated in the immediate resale stock.

Risk-managed entry

Spanish new-build buyers are protected by staged payments held under bank guarantee, ten-year structural warranty and full licence review. Roccabox brokers all of this through regulated counsel.

Market reality

The premium, contextualised

Useful context — not a substitute for unit-level valuation. Pricing data cross-referenced against live Costa del Sol market signals.

Balance is not priced against average Mijas Costa resale stock. It is a premium new-build product with the specification, plot quality and amenity package that the broader resale market typically does not match. At €4,877 per built m² the relevant question is whether the premium is justified against comparable new-build completions — not whether it beats the area's median of €3,067/m².

Cerrado del Águila sits within the broader Mijas Costa corridor — a stretch of the Costa del Sol that balances coastal access with a quieter residential character. The development is positioned less than ten minutes by car from the area's beaches and approximately 20 minutes from Málaga Airport, making it practical for both permanent residents and those using the property seasonally.

At 800 metres, the new Gran Parque de la Costa del Sol provides a substantial green amenity, with a running track, cycling path, navigable lake, outdoor amphitheatre, and skate park. The climate across this stretch of coastline averages a daily high of 20.7 °C year-round, with mild lows of around 15 °C — conditions that make the outdoor terrace and garden spaces genuinely usable across all seasons.

Common questions

Buying off-plan in Spain, answered

Straight answers to the questions our specialists field most. For anything else, the assistant above answers in real time.

Is Balance a good investment compared to the local resale market?

Balance is positioned as a premium new-build product with developer warranty, modern specification and limited supply. Comparable to the broader resale stock in Mijas Costa on price-per-m², the premium reflects new-build standards, plot quality and amenity package not typically available in the resale market. Our market analysts model the projected key-ready value on request.

What is the off-plan payment schedule in Spain?

Spanish off-plan purchases are typically staged: 10% on reservation (refundable holding deposit), a further 20% on signing the private purchase contract, and the remaining 70% on completion. Every euro paid before completion is held under bank guarantee — if the developer defaults, your money is refunded under Spanish law.

Can a non-resident get a mortgage to buy at Balance?

Yes. Spanish banks routinely lend 60–70% loan-to-value to non-residents on properties at this value, over terms of 20–25 years at competitive rates. Roccabox introduces vetted non-resident mortgage brokers at no cost.

Does buying at Balance qualify for Spanish residency?

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025 under Organic Law 1/2025. However, other residency routes remain available depending on circumstances — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, work or family-based permits. Roccabox introduces regulated Spanish immigration counsel.

How far is Balance from Málaga airport?

Approximately 24 minutes' drive, with a direct route via the A-7 / AP-7 motorway.

What is included in the purchase price?

Price includes the unit as specified by the developer. Spanish purchase costs (VAT/IVA on new builds at 10%, AJD stamp duty at 1.2%, notary and registry around 1%, legal counsel typically 1%) sit on top of the headline price. The Roccabox team produces a personalised total-cost breakdown on request.

Can I personalise the property?

At the Under construction stage, Balance buyers can typically influence layout details, basement configuration, finishes and specification ahead of handover. The window narrows as the build progresses. Our specialist will walk you through what's still negotiable on each remaining unit.
