Real estate market trends on the Costa Blanca
The Q3 2025 Real Estate Barometer and its meaning for the Costa Blanca
RealAdvisor's recent Q3 2025 Real Estate Barometer shows that house prices in Spain continued to rise: by +2.7% overall in that quarter, with +3.6% in houses and +2.3% in flats.
This behavior confirms an upward trend that is more sustained than punctual. But what implications does it have for the real estate market in the Valencian Community, and more specifically for the Costa Blanca?
At Holidaydream Homes Costa Blanca, we know that local particularities, climate, international demand, coastal attractiveness play a key role in interpreting these data. Here we tell you what you should look for if you are considering buying, selling or investing in Moraira, Benissa, Jávea, Calpe, Altea or Benitachell.
Keys to the Barometer and its local impact
- Continued growth, albeit more moderate
Although growth remains positive, the pace is moderating compared to previous stages of euphoria. This may indicate that the market is looking for a balance point between supply and demand.
- Houses drive more than floors
The barometer indicates that single-family homes (houses) rose more than flats in this quarter. On the Costa Blanca, where the demand for villas, chalets and houses with land is strong, this is an expected sign: many people are looking for outdoor spaces, views and privacy.
- Expectations for 2025 and 2026
Continued growth of 2% to 3% quarter-over-quarter is projected for the coming quarters.
For coastal areas with strong international tourist and residential appeal, these forecasts may even exceed the national average if demand persists.
What implications for the Costa Blanca?
- Increased international investor interest: new waves of foreign buyers will continue to look for properties in Moraira, Altea or Javea as getaways or secondary residences, boosting demand.
- Less room for aggressive discounting: With sustained growth, sellers can have a stronger position when pricing.
- Greater weight of house/villa type homes: as seen in the national trend (houses on the rise), single-family homes gain prominence over apartments.
- Optimisation of the real estate product: quality, energy efficiency and design will be sales differentials. In saturated markets, location is not enough: you have to stand out with characteristics that the buyer values.
💡 Recommendations for local owners and investors
- Define a clear exit strategyIf you are investing for resale, plan when and how to exit the asset. With a rising market, it could be favorable to capture capital gain over the next two years.
- Invest in differential improvementsOn the Costa Blanca, details such as sea views, well-designed gardens, outdoor areas or energy efficiency can make a competitive difference.
- Do a local benchmarkBrowse specific data in Moraira, Jávea, Benissa, Calpe, Altea, and Benitachell to compare real prices per square metre in your area, not just general averages.
- Be flexible with typologyAlthough houses show better increases, do not rule out opportunities in flats if they have a premium location or remarkable features.
- Seize the momentIf you already have a property, assess whether it is a good time to sell or, if you are buying, negotiate with updated fundamentals in the face of a strengthened market.
