Thanks — we've got your search. Someone from our team will be in touch shortly.
Quentin, after a careful discussion and exchange of ideas, understood exactly what we were looking. He then sent us examples of a range of properties from which we were able to refine our own definitions of exactly what we were looking for and what our budget would allow. A true professional in real estate and a pleasure to deal with.
Quentin has an excellent approach, great communication, expert knowledge, warm and empathetic whilst going through our property search with us. We cannot thank you enough and would highly recommend you to anyone starting their property search in Portugal. Kindest. Victoria
I found Quentin an excellent communicator when my wife and I were researching properties in his area. We had chats via zoom calls and he had properties to view when we arrived from UK. Good service, humorous and professional.
I had the pleasure of partnering with Quentin during a visit in Portugal. Quentin was a true partner, coordinating the whole trip, taking into account every detail and aspect of the trip, accessible the whole time and very understanding. He was very present and attentive to my needs and expectations. I can only highly recommend Quentin.
We had limited experience with Quentin - because he is in Portugal and we are in Canada. We can say that Quentin is completely professional. He answered emails same day and always provided information we asked for. He took the time to do his job well and we will continue our dealings with him.
Efficient, proactive, ready to help, pleasant relationship, large inventory

Alicante anchors the northern Costa Blanca, pairing a walled Santa Bárbara castle, a palm-lined Explanada and Alicante-Elche airport within twenty minutes of the city. Buyers find seafront apartments on Playa del Postiguet, refurbished casas in El Barrio and golf villas across the Albir-Altea corridor, all still qualifying for Spain's active Golden Visa.
Detached villas in Cabo de las Huertas, San Juan and Campello with private pools, sea views and 400-800 m² plots priced from €850,000 to €4.5 million.
Seafront apartments on Playa de San Juan and Avenida de Niza, plus characterful two-bedroom flats inside the Old Town and Casco Antiguo from €350,000 upward.
Top-floor penthouses with terraces overlooking the marina and Santa Bárbara castle, typically 150-240 m² with Jacuzzis and panoramic glazing.
Front-line properties along Albufereta, Cabo Huertas and Playa de San Juan offering direct Mediterranean access, private gardens and mature palm boundaries.
Fine Luxury Property is a specialist brokerage working the Alicante and wider Costa Blanca market daily. Our multilingual estate agents handle every stage in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese, advising Golden Visa applicants on the €500,000 threshold, NIE registration, ITP transfer tax and notary appointments. We have direct relationships with developers in Cabo Huertas, San Juan and Albir and preview off-market villas before they list publicly.
Spain's residency-by-investment programme remains open at a €500,000 threshold in real estate. Alicante is one of the few prime coastal markets where that figure still buys a three-bedroom seafront apartment or a detached villa with a pool.
Alicante-Elche airport sits twenty minutes from the centre and handles direct flights to London, Dublin, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Oslo, making weekend ownership genuinely practical for northern European buyers year-round.
Coastal Alicante apartments have appreciated roughly 35% since 2020 while delivering 4.5-6% gross rental yields. Short-let demand is strongest along Playa de San Juan and Cabo Huertas from April through October.
The microclimate delivers 320 days of sunshine and winter averages of 16-18°C. A palm-lined Explanada, the El Barrio tapas scene and the marina keep the city lived-in rather than seasonal.
Foreign buyers need a Número de Identificación de Extranjero before signing. Apply through the Spanish consulate or in person at the Alicante national police office. Open a euro account for utilities and direct debits.
We tour Cabo Huertas, Playa de San Juan, Old Town and the Albir-Altea corridor in structured viewings, aligning budget with Golden Visa, lifestyle or yield goals before shortlisting.
A 10% deposit secures the property with a typical 60-day exclusivity window. Our lawyers verify the nota simple, check the community of owners' balance and review outstanding IBI.
Architect inspection, Licencia de Primera Ocupación review and energy certificate verification follow. In older El Barrio stock we instruct a structural survey to check timber beams and damp.
Signing takes place before a notary in Alicante; funds transfer the same day, keys change hands and we register the escritura at the Registro de la Propiedad. Golden Visa files are lodged within 60 days.
The €500,000 investor route remains active in Spain even after Portugal closed its property pathway. Alicante offers the widest choice of qualifying stock between Valencia and Murcia.
ITP transfer tax in Valencia region sits at 10%, with 1% stamp duty on new builds. Non-resident income tax on rentals is 24%, and CGT on resale is capped at 19% for EU residents.
Average days-on-market in prime Alicante barrios runs 60-90 days, well ahead of inland Costa Blanca. British, Dutch, Belgian and Nordic buyers form a steady exit pool.
The AP-7 motorway, Alicante-Elche airport and the high-speed AVE to Madrid (2h 25m) combine with the HLA Vistahermosa private hospital to support permanent relocation, not just seasonal use.
A two-bedroom apartment in the Old Town starts at around €250,000, while seafront apartments on Playa de San Juan range from €400,000 to €900,000 depending on floor and view. Detached villas in Cabo de las Huertas or Albufereta typically sit between €850,000 and €2.5 million, and prime front-line penthouses trade from €1.5 million. Pricing per square metre spans €3,200 to €9,500 depending on barrio and condition, with seafront and Cabo Huertas commanding the top end.
Cabo de las Huertas offers the most prestigious villa stock with sea cliffs and gated plots. Playa de San Juan suits buyers wanting beachfront apartment living with a promenade and golf course. El Barrio and the Casco Antiguo appeal to those chasing restored townhouses within walking distance of Santa Bárbara castle. Albufereta, between the two, balances family beaches with quicker city access. San Juan Playa and Campello to the north are preferred by second-home buyers wanting a calmer coast.
Yes. Spain's residency-by-investment programme is active and requires a minimum €500,000 real estate purchase, free of mortgage debt up to that threshold. Alicante is one of the last prime coastal markets where that budget buys a detached villa or high-floor seafront apartment. The visa grants residency to the investor, spouse and dependent children, with no minimum stay requirement to maintain status, and converts to permanent residency after five years.
The airport lies 9 km south-west of the city at Elche, about 15-20 minutes by car via the A-7 motorway and around €20-25 by taxi. Direct flights connect daily with London, Manchester, Dublin, Amsterdam, Brussels, Oslo, Stockholm, Frankfurt and Zurich. The C-6 bus runs every 20 minutes between the airport, Alicante-Luceros station and Playa de San Juan, making a second home here a genuine weekend option for northern European owners.
Short-let seafront apartments on Playa de San Juan and Cabo Huertas generate 5.5-7% gross yields, with peak nightly rates of €180-€280 from June through September. Long-term residential lets deliver a steadier 4-5% with lower turnover. The Old Town commands the highest tourist rates per night but requires a municipal VT (vivienda turística) licence; new licences are increasingly restricted, so buying a property that already carries one adds significant value.
Budget 12-14% on top of the purchase price. Resale properties attract 10% ITP transfer tax in the Valencia region. New builds instead pay 10% VAT plus 1.5% stamp duty. Notary, land registry and legal fees total roughly 2-2.5%. Annual holding costs include IBI (local property tax, 0.4-1.1% of cadastral value), rubbish collection and the community of owners' fee. Non-residents additionally pay 24% income tax on rental income.
We strongly recommend an independent Spanish abogado for any purchase. Your lawyer verifies the nota simple at the Registro de la Propiedad, checks for outstanding debts and community charges, reviews the Licencia de Primera Ocupación, drafts the arras contract and attends notary completion. Typical fees are 1-1.5% of the purchase price, often the cheapest insurance in the entire process. We introduce buyers to bilingual firms in Alicante who work daily with foreign clients.
