The foreign buyer's guide to the Costa del Sol

How to buy your property in Spain safely, without surprise and with the right financing.

Alberto has released a practical guide for foreign buyers navigating the Costa del Sol market. It is designed to make the purchase process clearer, reduce surprises and help buyers approach Spanish financing with more confidence from the outset.

Approach

Independent advice first

Alberto founded Finance Consulting Group to give international buyers independent mortgage advice rather than bank-first sales guidance. That means the process starts with lender fit, affordability, timing and structure, not with a one-size-fits-all product pitch.

The goal is not simply to get a mortgage. It is to get the right mortgage, presented to the right lender, in a way that makes the transaction smoother from the very beginning.
Where Alberto adds value

Shaping the case before it becomes urgent

For many international buyers, the real pressure starts after a reservation agreement is signed. Alberto focuses on reducing that pressure earlier. He helps position the case properly, set realistic borrowing expectations and identify the lenders most likely to understand the client, the property and the timing.

  • Non-resident and expat mortgage strategy
  • Early lender selection for cleaner submissions
  • Practical planning around deposit, costs and timeline
  • Higher-level oversight when a case needs judgement, not just administration
What clients can expect

Bespoke, human-led case handling

Clients working with FCG are not handed off to a machine or a faceless processing queue. Alberto oversees the quality of the advice, the structure of the file and the commercial logic behind the recommendation. When something needs explaining, renegotiating or escalating, there is a real person in the loop.
