Malaga Property Information: A Guide for Buyers
Our property information has been reorganised around the decisions buyers need to make. The earlier advice and property-service recommendations on this page have been replaced. Start with the current buying, costs and rental-use guides below. Reviewed 8 October 2026.
Before you buy
- The buying process and legal checks
- Purchase taxes, fees and ownership costs
- Rental rules, community approvals and return calculations
Questions about a specific home
- Ask your lawyer to review community statutes, fees, debts and extraordinary works.
- Check the floor plans against the actual home and the registered and cadastral descriptions.
- Confirm the documents required for the building and the intended use.
- If you plan alterations, obtain technical advice and check permissions before assuming the work is possible.
Advice and professional introductions
The previous personal-shopping service is no longer offered through Guide to Malaga. We now review buying briefs ourselves before proposing a suitable property professional. Any introduction is subject to coverage and your permission to share your details with the identified partner.
