New-build is Estepona's defining category — the town carries the highest new-build share of any we cover, roughly a third of what currently transacts, because it still has developable land behind the coast that Marbella largely lacks. Most of it concentrates along the New Golden Mile belt east of the centro and around the La Resina golf course: gated, aerothermal, pool-and-spa, 2018-onwards specifications. New-build carries 10% IVA plus 1.2% AJD rather than resale ITP, and brings a due-diligence layer resale does not — bank guarantees on your deposit, the licence of first occupation, completion-date credibility. We walk you through each of those.
