MPL: Is now the right time to sell your Marbella property?

Gecko Towers:

The right time to sell your property in the Marbella region of the Costa del Sol largely depends on various factors, including the current market conditions, your personal circumstances, and the state of your property.

Market Conditions
The Costa del Sol property market has been experiencing sustained growth, with property prices forecast to rise by 5-8% in established areas of Marbella, such as San Pedro de Alcantara, recently described as a “hidden gem” by a UK TV property specialist. This growth, combined with the area’s popularity among expats and investors, makes it an excellent time to sell.

Personal Circumstances
Consider your personal reasons for selling. Are you looking to upgrade, downsize, or relocate? If you’re in a hurry to sell, you may need to be more flexible with your pricing.

Property Condition
The state of your property plays a significant role in its saleability. Ensure your property is well-maintained, clean, and clutter-free to attract potential buyers. Consider making minor repairs or renovations to increase its value.

Best Time to Sell
In terms of timing, the best time to sell a property in the Marbella region is usually during the spring or autumn months, when the weather is pleasant and more buyers are actively looking for properties. However, this can vary depending on your specific circumstances and the local market conditions. Golfers and property dedicated to their sport, for instance, tend to be more active in the cooler months.
