Real Estate

The Costa Cálida — from Murcia city and the Mar Menor to Cartagena, La Manga, Los Alcázares and Mazarrón — draws thousands of non-resident buyers and expats every year. Buying property in Murcia as a non-resident calls for the same rigour as any Spanish acquisition: an NIE, a non-resident bank account, proof of the source of funds and a full title and planning check before you commit a single euro.

We act for international buyers across the whole province. We review the nota simple for charges and encumbrances, confirm the property is free of community debts and planning breaches, handle the deposit contract and the deed before the notary, and take care of Transfer Tax (ITP), the annual Non-Resident Income Tax (Modelo 210) and local IBI. Where the seller is a non-resident, we manage the mandatory 3% retention (Modelo 211) so it never becomes your liability.

We also act as your property lawyer and conveyancing solicitor on the neighbouring Costa Blanca — Alicante, Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa, Guardamar, Jávea and Dénia — one of the most active property markets in Spain for British, Irish, Dutch, German and Scandinavian buyers. The legal framework is national, so the same safeguards apply: independent due diligence, bank guarantees on off-plan purchases and clear tax planning before completion.

Working across both the Región de Murcia and the province of Alicante lets us advise expats buying a first or second home along the whole southern Costa Blanca and Costa Cálida corridor — with a single English- and Spanish-speaking point of contact from reservation to the handover of keys.
