Rental Yield on the Costa del Sol

Use this investment guide to compare opportunities with realistic assumptions and a clear understanding of costs and local demand.

Gross yield is only the starting point

Gross yield compares annual rent with purchase price, but it does not include taxes, community fees, maintenance, management, financing or vacancy.

Net yield is more useful

A realistic investment model should include recurring and occasional costs and should test conservative occupancy assumptions.

Location drives demand quality

Walkability, transport, beach access, schools and year-round services influence tenant demand differently depending on short-term or long-term strategy.

Check regulation before buying for rental

Tourist and residential rental rules can change. Confirm current licensing and community restrictions before purchasing on the assumption of a specific rental model.
