Building or buying a house on the Costa Blanca? Find out if it is better to build or buy a home on the Costa Blanca.
🏗️ What is more profitable on the Costa Blanca: building or buying a ready-made house? a key decision for your new home on the Costa Blanca
If you are thinking of living or investing on the Costa Blanca North (Moraira, Jávea, Benissa, Calpe, Altea, Benitachell...), you are probably asking yourself this question:
Is it better for me to buy a house already built or build it from scratch?
At Holidaydream Homes Costa Blanca we have been helping our clients to make this decision with clarity, transparency and a long-term vision for more than 20 years. Our experience as experts in the sale of Ibiza and Mediterranean style houses, country houses, rustic fincas, apartments and building plots allows us to offer you an objective and personalised analysis.
💶 Which is cheaper: building or buying on the Costa Blanca?
According to the average data of the sector, building a house is usually cheaper than buying one already built, especially if you start from an urban plot with a good location.
- Average construction price on the Costa Blanca North: between €1,300 and €2,000 per m², depending on the level of quality, design and complexity of the project.
- Average purchase price of new or refurbished property: between €2,500 and €4,500 per m², depending on the area (highest in Moraira, Altea or Jávea).
This means that, in many cases, building your own home can save 20-40% compared to buying a finished home. However, there are more factors to consider in addition to price: time, management, custom design, initial investment and peace of mind.
