International buyers are playing an increasingly important role in Spain’s property market 🌍🏡

In 2025, foreign buyers paid an average of €2,479 per m², around 35% more than domestic buyers. However, this does not mean they pay more for the same property: location, property type and market segment all influence the difference.

Another important trend is the growing presence of foreign residents buying homes to live in Spain, rather than purchasing exclusively as non-residents.

For the Costa del Sol, this creates opportunities for sellers who understand how to reach buyers beyond the local market. Professional photography, international exposure and the right property positioning can make a real difference. ☀️

At Sunshine Immo, we combine more than 20 years of local experience with international property marketing to connect properties with buyers from around the world.

Europe does not have one single housing market 🏡🌍

While around 68% of Europeans live in a home they own, the balance between ownership and renting varies dramatically from one country to another.

Spain remains strongly focused on homeownership, with around 74% of the population living in a property they own. At the same time, renting is becoming increasingly important, particularly among younger generations and in major cities.

For the Costa del Sol, these differences matter. International buyers bring different housing experiences, expectations and investment objectives to the market.

At Sunshine Immo, we look beyond the local property market to understand the wider trends shaping demand across Europe and the Costa del Sol ☀️

A slower sales market does not necessarily mean cheaper rents 🏡📉

The reason is simple: buying and renting are connected, but they are not the same market. If rental supply remains limited in the areas where demand is strongest, rents can stay high even when fewer homes are being sold.

Spain continues to face a significant housing supply gap, with the imbalance particularly visible in high-demand areas such as Málaga.

For the Costa del Sol, this is especially relevant. Málaga, Marbella, Estepona, Mijas and Coín combine strong demand with limited availability in many desirable locations 🌴☀️

At Sunshine Immo, we look beyond individual sales figures to understand the wider supply-and-demand dynamics shaping the Costa del Sol property market.

Málaga is showing a very different buyer profile from much of Spain 🌴🏡

In 2025, only 59.3% of home purchases in Málaga province were made by local residents. More than four in ten transactions involved buyers from elsewhere in Spain, non-residents or cases where the buyer’s residence was not recorded.

For property owners, this highlights something important: your future buyer may not live anywhere near your home. Madrid, other Spanish regions and international markets can all be part of the potential audience 🌍

At Sunshine Immo, we combine more than 20 years of local Costa del Sol experience with international property marketing to help properties reach beyond their immediate surroundings.

💎 Marbella continues to attract major international capital, and Oakmond is another example of how the luxury property market is evolving.

🏡 With a €260 million development combining luxury accommodation, private residences, wellness and hospitality, the concept goes far beyond a traditional resort.

🌿 The growing importance of branded residences and wellness-focused living shows how international buyers are increasingly looking for services, privacy and lifestyle alongside the property itself.

☀️ At Sunshine Immo, we help clients look beyond the headline and understand the real opportunities, costs and potential behind luxury property investments across Marbella and the Costa del Sol.
