Over 40% of international buyers in Spain choose new builds, but what actually happens once you reserve, pay your deposit, and wait for completion?

In this episode, Warner sits down with Viktoria Jancurova, a recent buyer who purchased a new-build apartment in La Cala de Mijas through WL Costa Properties.

This is the real story; the shiny parts, the stressful parts, and the moment she opened her door to find water pouring through her kitchen ceiling.

If you’re considering a new development on the Costa del Sol, this is essential listening!

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • Why new builds are so popular among foreign buyers
  • What makes a development a good one (and how to judge it)
  • The 6,000€ reservation fee + deposit process
  • How mortgage subrogation works in Spain
  • The importance of a detailed courtesy visit & snagging checklist
  • What happens when things go wrong (like unexpected leaks)
  • Why the right lawyer + the right agent = your real guarantee
  • What buyers should document from day one
  • Why buying with limited Spanish is completely manageable
  • How to avoid the most common new-build mistakes
