Many residents live here full-time year-round. It's a genuine Spanish town with schools, healthcare, and a working local economy — not a seasonal resort. Winters are mild (average 15°C) and the community is stable. Some buyers rent out seasonally to offset costs, others simply enjoy the lower pace of life and exceptional beach access. It works well for both permanent relocation and part-time living.

The 2024 notary data shows average prices around €2,400 per square metre, with homes averaging 93 m² and selling at approximately €223,000. Most stock is detached or semi-detached villas, many with private pools — far more space-for-money than you'd find further north. New-build properties command a premium, typically around €4,984 per square metre, reflecting strong emerging demand. Prices vary based on beach proximity, plot size, and modernisation.

Yes. Non-residents can buy freely in Spain with an NIE (foreigner identification number) obtained through your local Spanish consulate before purchase, or by your lawyer during the transaction. The legal process is straightforward: offer, inspections, bank valuation, mortgage arrangement (if needed), and then notarised completion. Most transactions complete within 8–12 weeks. Hansson & Hertzell guides non-resident buyers through every step.

The town has genuine rental demand — from long-term Spanish tenants, seasonal holiday visitors, and Northern European relocators seeking short-term lets. Over 1,220 transactions in 2024 indicate a living, working market rather than a speculative one. Rental yields depend on property type, location, and management; many owners combine personal use with seasonal letting to offset costs and generate modest income. Professional rental agencies operate locally.

Murcia International Airport is 20 minutes away by car; Alicante Airport is about 50 minutes. Both have regular connections to northern Europe. Locally, a car is practical for exploring the wider Costa Blanca, though the town itself is walkable. Local buses serve main routes. For beach days and errands, most residents drive — it remains Spain's transport reality outside major cities.
