Alicante Real Estate Market 2025: What Smart Buyers Should Watch

The Alicante real estate market has become one of the most closely watched destinations on the Costa Blanca. Foreign buyers, digital nomads and long–term investors are all looking for a mix of lifestyle and solid returns. In 2025, the market is shaped by interest rates, tourism flows, remote work and the limited supply of quality properties in prime locations.

First, it is important to look beyond headline prices. In Alicante, two streets in the same neighbourhood can have very different values depending on building quality, noise levels, parking, lifts and distance to the sea or tram stops. Working with a local real estate agency that actually visits the buildings and communities (HOA) helps filter out problematic blocks.

In 2025 we see a clear separation between prime, well‑located stock and more generic buildings. Energy efficiency, lift access and outdoor space are increasingly important for both local and international buyers.

Second, think clearly about your own profile. Are you a pure investor focused on net yield, or is lifestyle equally important? For apartments and townhouses, long‑term rental to local residents or expats usually means lower turnover and more stable occupancy. For villas with pools, you may have a mix of personal use and short‑term holiday lets, which changes the risk profile and required management.

Third, always run the numbers. A simple ROI calculation using realistic rent, conservative occupancy and a proper allowance for running costs will tell you more than any marketing brochure. You should also consider financing costs, taxes in your country of tax residence and potential reforms. AlicanteRealEstates.com uses a straightforward yield model that you can test directly in the ROI calculator on the main page.

Finally, do not underestimate the legal and technical due diligence. Checking licences, tourist rental regulations, community rules and building condition is essential before you sign. A good lawyer in Spain and a transparent agent make the process much smoother, especially if you are buying from abroad.
