Buying property in Casares: what we know

Casares is where we sell the villas at Finca Cortesín, and that one resort accounts for most of our listings here. The rest of the municipality, the white village in the hills and the coast at Bahía de Casares, is a different market at a different price.

  • Homes listed today: 12 from €345.000 to €8.700.000, median €5.200.000
  • Mix: 9 villas, 2 penthouses, 1 ground floor apartment
  • Where they are: Casares del Sol - Casares Golf (8), Marina Duquesa (1), Bahia de las Rocas (1), Bahia de Casares (1)
  • Typical size: 3 to 5 bedrooms
  • Updated: 25 October 2026

The Casares property market in 2026

Casares has 9,009 residents as of January 2025, and most of them live in the pueblo, 400 metres up in the hills, not on the coast. Average asking prices in 2026 are between 4,068 and 4,646 euros per square metre across the municipality, but that number says little about Finca Cortesín, where villas trade in the millions and the branded residences by St. Regis and Lanserhof set the top of the market. We covered those in our Finca Cortesín post.

Our Casares stock is almost entirely villas inside Finca Cortesín and at Camarate Golf next to it, with the occasional penthouse. The coast, Bahía de Casares, Marina de Casares, Doña Julia and Casares Golf, is apartments and townhouses at prices that are still among the lowest on the coast for beachfront. Our Casares guide covers both.

Who buys in Casares and why

Finca Cortesín buyers are golfers and families who want a five star hotel, a 2023 Solheim Cup course and the resort's own beach club on the coast below, with Marbella 40 minutes away and Gibraltar airport 25 to 35 minutes. They are mostly British, Dutch, Belgian, Swiss and Scandinavian, and most pay cash. The coast draws a different buyer: couples and retirees who want the sea for the price of a car park in Marbella, and who use Estepona, 15 to 25 minutes east, for the shops, the hospital and the international schools.

Plainly: Casares has no hospital of its own, the pueblo is a 15 minute drive from the coast, and the coastal urbanisations are quieter than Estepona's in winter. Those are the reasons prices are lower, and the reasons the people who live here chose it.

New build or resale in Casares

New build is concentrated at Finca Cortesín and along the coast at Bahía de Casares and Marina de Casares. Our new developments in Casares and Manilva page lists them. Transfer tax on resales is 7 percent today and 6.75 percent from 2027; new builds pay 10 percent VAT and 1.2 percent stamp duty. On the coast, check the community accounts and the state of the pool and lifts before you sign, because some of the 2000s blocks have had expensive repairs. On the resort, read the service contract before the floor plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the price range for properties for sale in Casares right now?

Current listings range from €345.000 to €8.700.000, depending on location, size and property type.

How far is Casares from Málaga Airport?

Around 100km, just over an hour by car via the A-7 and MA-8300.

How far is Casares from Estepona?

About 24km, roughly 25-30 minutes by car.

What's the difference between Casares Pueblo and Casares Costa?

Casares Pueblo is the historic whitewashed village in the hills, with cobbled streets and a strong sense of community. Casares Costa is the coastal area down toward the marina, with beachfront developments and a belt of golf courses in between the two. Our Casares area guide covers both.

Do I need a NIE to buy property here?

Yes. A NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) is required for any property purchase in Spain, resident or not. See our NIE guide for how to get one.

What extra costs should I budget for on top of the purchase price?

Budget about 8.5% on top of the price for a resale and about 12.7% for a new build. On a resale that covers the 7% transfer tax in Andalusia plus notary, land registry and legal fees; a new build pays 10% VAT and 1.2% stamp duty instead of transfer tax. Our step-by-step buying guide walks through the full process.

Can I rent my property out to holidaymakers?

Only with a VFT (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos) tourist licence, Andalusia's official short-term rental registration. It covers habitability standards and community bylaws, and typically takes 1-4 weeks to obtain. Renting without one risks significant fines.

What tax would I pay on rental income as a non-resident?

EU/EEA residents pay 19% on net rental income, with deductible expenses. Non-EU residents pay 24% on gross income, with no deductions allowed and a mandatory fiscal representative in Spain.
