What does frontline beach mean in Manilva?
Spanish listings call it primera línea de playa: the complex borders the beach or the promenade directly. Second line means there is a road or another building in between. You see the difference in the price, and later in the resale: frontline homes are scarce and remain in demand.
In Manilva most beachfront homes are in La Duquesa, San Luis de Sabinillas and Punta Chullera.
What should you check for a beachfront home?
Salt and wind are stronger on the front line: ask about maintenance of façades, windows and terraces and read the latest minutes of the community of owners. Also check the coastal law (Ley de Costas): some older buildings lie partly within the protected zone, which limits renovations. We have this checked by an independent lawyer.
What does buying cost on top of the price?
For a resale home in Andalusia you pay 7 percent transfer tax (ITP). For a new build it is 10 percent VAT (IVA) plus 1.2 percent stamp duty (AJD). On top of that, allow about 1 to 2 percent for notary, land registry and an independent lawyer. Our guide to buying costs explains it in detail.
How we search together
You tell us what you are looking for and we make a selection from the full market, including homes that are not online. We plan the viewings in one or two days, have an independent lawyer check the paperwork and guide you all the way to the notary, in English, Dutch, French or Spanish.
