Renovation Properties & Projects in Spain

Buying a property to renovate in Spain can offer exceptional value — purchasing below market price and adding value through thoughtful renovation.

The Costa Blanca has many properties with renovation potential: older villas with solid structures but dated interiors, townhouses in charming villages, and apartments in desirable locations that need modernization.

Renovation costs in Spain are competitive: a full interior renovation (kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, electrics, plumbing) typically costs €400-€800 per square metre.

Key considerations include: obtaining the correct licencia de obra menor or mayor (minor/major works permit), understanding community of owners rules for apartment renovations, and ensuring structural changes are approved by a qualified architect.
