Recent headlines about proposed property tax changes in Spain have created quite a stir in the international property market. As CEO of Sandtons Property, with three decades of experience in Spain's property sector, I'd like to provide some clarity and context to help you understand what's really happening.
In my three decades of real estate experience, I've never witnessed such a profound transformation in new development as we're seeing on the Costa del Sol in 2025. We're not just observing changes in design and amenities – we're witnessing a complete reimagining of what 'home' means in the modern era. Today's developments aren't simply places to live; they're comprehensive lifestyle environments that reflect how people want to live, work, and thrive in the post-pandemic world.
After three decades of selling properties internationally, I've witnessed countless market cycles, but I've never seen anything quite like our current landscape here on the Costa del Sol. As founder of Sandtons, where we specialise in luxury properties for foreign buyers, I've had a front-row seat to the remarkable transformation of Spain's second-home market.
