Buyers Can Secure Costa del Sol Properties with Interest Rates Starting from Just 2%

Securing your dream property on the Costa del Sol just became significantly more accessible for international buyers. While many assume that financing Spanish real estate from abroad is complex or expensive, the reality is quite different when you work with the right partners. At Konrad Real Estate, we've established strategic relationships with premier banking institutions to offer our clients access to financing solutions with remarkably competitive rates and favorable terms.

Exceptional Financing Opportunities: Rates Starting from 2% for Qualified Buyers

One of the most compelling aspects of our financing partnerships is the potential to secure mortgage rates starting from as low as 2% for well-qualified international buyers. Combined with loan-to-value ratios of up to 70-80% of the purchase price, these competitive terms make Costa del Sol property ownership more achievable than many buyers initially expect.

This financing advantage stems from our carefully cultivated relationships with both international and local banking partners who understand the unique needs of foreign property buyers. Rather than navigating Spain's banking system alone, our clients benefit from pre-established professional connections and streamlined processes that have been refined over years of successful international transactions.

The exact rate you'll qualify for depends on various factors including your financial profile, down payment, property type, and current market conditions. However, our banking partnerships consistently deliver some of the most competitive rates available to international buyers in the Spanish property market.

Strategic Banking Partnerships: Familiar Names, Local Expertise

Nykredit: Denmark's Trusted Mortgage Leader on Spanish Soil

For our Danish clients and other Scandinavian buyers, partnering with Nykredit offers the comfort of working with Denmark's largest mortgage lender right here in Marbella. Since 2004, Nykredit has been helping Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian buyers finance their Spanish properties through their dedicated Marbella office.

What makes Nykredit particularly attractive for Scandinavian buyers is their familiar institutional approach combined with Spanish market expertise. They typically offer financing up to 80% of the home's purchase price for qualified full customers, with minimum loan amounts starting from €100,000. Having a trusted Danish institution handle your Spanish property financing eliminates much of the uncertainty that comes with international real estate transactions.

Spaanse Hypotheker: Dutch-Language Mortgage Expertise

Our Dutch-speaking clients receive specialized support through our partnership with Spaanse Hypotheker, who provides native-language mortgage guidance throughout the entire purchase process. This collaboration ensures that language barriers never compromise understanding of complex financial terms or legal requirements.

Grupo Cooperativo Cajamar: Your Gateway to Spanish Banking

For clients seeking full integration into the Spanish banking system, our partnership with Grupo Cooperativo Cajamar provides comprehensive local banking services from their convenient Mijas-Calahonda location. Beyond mortgage products tailored to the Spanish market, Cajamar offers the full spectrum of banking services international property owners need: savings accounts, investment products, insurance options, and robust digital banking platforms for managing finances remotely.

This local banking relationship proves invaluable for property owners who want seamless access to Spanish financial services, whether they're residing full-time on the Costa del Sol or managing their property investment from abroad.

The Spanish Mortgage Market: A Surge in Activity

Recent data from Spanish National Statistics (INE) reveals remarkable growth in Spain's mortgage market, with 243,257 mortgage loans issued nationwide in the first quarter of 2025 alone. This represents a 25% increase compared to the same period last year and marks the highest level of mortgage activity since 2014.

María Martos from property portal Fotocasa attributes this surge to two key factors: historically low interest rates and Spanish banks' introduction of more flexible mortgage products. Significantly, 78% of this year's mortgages were issued for resale properties, indicating a robust secondary market that international buyers are actively participating in.

This mortgage market dynamism reflects broader confidence in Spanish real estate and creates favorable conditions for international buyers seeking financing. Banks are actively competing for business, leading to more attractive terms and streamlined approval processes for qualified borrowers.

Expert Legal Support: Protecting Your Investment

Securing favorable financing is only one aspect of a successful Spanish property purchase. Understanding Spanish property law and ensuring all legal requirements are properly addressed is equally crucial for international buyers. Our established partnerships with two premier Marbella law firms ensure comprehensive legal protection throughout your transaction.

Martinez-Echevarria Abogados, established in 1983 with over 300 professionals, brings decades of real estate law experience from their Puerto Banús office. Their team's fluency in Spanish, Portuguese, English, and French ensures clear communication with international clients while their deep local market knowledge provides invaluable guidance.

Shellslegal Abogados specializes in property transactions for international clients, with particular expertise in serving buyers from Northern Europe. Their multilingual team speaks English, French, Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, often allowing clients to work directly in their native language. From initial reservation contracts to final property registration, Shellslegal handles every legal detail with meticulous attention.

Why Independent Buyer Representation Makes the Difference

While competitive financing and expert legal support are essential, having truly independent representation throughout your property purchase provides the ultimate protection for your investment. Unlike traditional real estate agents who represent sellers' interests, Konrad Real Estate works exclusively for buyers.

This buyer-focused approach becomes particularly valuable when navigating financing options. We have no financial incentive to push specific mortgage products or banking relationships beyond what serves your best interests. Our recommendations are based purely on finding the optimal financing solution for your unique circumstances and investment goals.

Our multilingual team understands the cultural and financial nuances that Northern European buyers face when purchasing Spanish property. From explaining Spanish banking requirements to coordinating between international mortgage providers and local legal requirements, we ensure nothing falls through the cracks during your financing process.

Smart Financing Strategies for International Buyers

Leverage Multiple Options: Don't limit yourself to a single financing source. Our diverse banking partnerships allow us to present multiple options and help you choose the solution that best matches your financial profile and investment timeline.

Consider Currency Implications: For buyers with income in Danish kroner, euros, or other currencies, we help evaluate how currency fluctuations might impact mortgage payments and overall investment returns.

Plan for Total Costs: Beyond the mortgage itself, Spanish property purchases involve various fees, taxes, and setup costs. Our comprehensive approach includes connecting you with the right financial products for managing all aspects of your property investment.

Think Long-term: Whether you're purchasing a vacation home, retirement property, or investment asset, we help structure financing that aligns with your long-term ownership plans and potential exit strategies.
