The desire to live in Spain is often synonymous with sun and relaxation, a desire that can be thwarted by the unforeseen circumstances of a renovation project. That's why more and more buyers are turning to a solution that combines modernity and tranquillity: buying new, turnkey property in Spain. This is the ideal way to get the most out of your investment straight away, without the hassle of building work, in a property that meets the highest quality standards.
The new-build boom in Spain: Trends for Summer 2025
In August 2025, the Spanish property development sector is in full swing, responding to very strong international demand. Developers are vying to offer residences (urbanizaciones) that are not simply homes, but real places to live. The trend is for secure complexes offering exceptional services: infinity pools, landscaped gardens, gyms, coworking spaces and spas. The Costa del Sol, Costa Blanca and Valencia regions are leading the way, with innovative projects focusing on sustainability, energy efficiency and integrated home automation.
The key advantages of new-build and turnkey property
Choosing a new-build property means opting for total peace of mind and a host of benefits:
- Absolute peace of mind: you move into a spotless property, with no hidden defects and no work to be carried out. What's more, you'll benefit from solid guarantees, including the ten-year guarantee (garantía decenal), which covers structural defects.
- Comfort and modernity: Benefit from the latest standards in thermal and acoustic insulation, quality materials and modern equipment, which translates into energy savings and greater living comfort.
- A Privileged Lifestyle: The exceptional communal areas offer you a living environment worthy of a resort, promoting well-being and social interaction within a community.
- Financial predictability: The price is fixed and maintenance costs are virtually non-existent for the first few years, so there are no unpleasant budgetary surprises.
An ideal choice for a modern, stress-free lifestyle
New-build property is aimed above all at buyers who prefer comfort and convenience. It's the perfect solution for those who are buying from a distance and can't supervise a building site. It's also a good deal for investors, because a new property is easier to let, at a better price, and attracts quality tenants, while requiring no works management. Finally, it's the choice of those looking for a certain standard of living, a secure environment and a community for their main or second home.

Precautions to take when buying off-plan or new
The process for buying new, turnkey property in Spain is very secure, but it does require a certain amount of rigour. If you are buying off-plan (*sobre plano*), the most crucial thing is to make sure that your down payments are protected by a bank guarantee (*aval bancario*). For tax purposes, new-build property is subject to 10% IVA (VAT) and AJD (stamp duty), which is calculated differently from old-build property. Here, more than ever, the support of an independent lawyer is essential to validate the developer's contract and secure every stage of the transaction.
