An international property market with strong demand The Costa Blanca attracts buyers from all over Europe.

Belgians, Dutch, Britons, Germans, Scandinavians and French buy properties there as a second home, permanent residence or investment.

In 2025, 43.29% of all home purchases in the province of Alicante were made by foreign buyers.

This gave Alicante the highest share of foreign buyers of all Spanish provinces.

That international interest is important for investors.

If you sell later on, you are not solely dependent on the local Spanish market.

A well-located property can be attractive to different nationalities and buyer profiles.

A destination that remains attractive year-round The Costa Blanca is much more than a summer holiday destination.

Thanks to mild winters, many sunny days and extensive amenities, tourists, winter residents and international inhabitants stay there throughout the year.

In June 2026 the Costa Blanca was the most popular Spanish tourist region for holiday apartments with more than 736,000 overnight stays.

In August that number rose to more than 1.6 million overnight stays.

That makes the region interesting for those who want to rent out their property to tourists.

In popular seaside resorts the high season falls during the summer months, while golf resorts, larger cities and areas with many international residents can remain attractive outside the summer season.

No occupancy rate or rental return can be guaranteed.

A property with a strong location, attractive outdoor space and proper rental documentation does have a better starting position.

Excellent accessibility from Europe A second home or holiday property becomes more attractive when owners and tenants can travel there easily.

Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport handled almost 20 million passengers in 2025, an increase of 8.5% compared to the previous year.

Approximately 17.5 million of those were international travellers.
