MPDunne advises buyers and sellers across Benahavís, with transactions in the municipality from €400K to €20M. We have worked the Golden Triangle since 2004, from our office on the Golden Mile, and our advisors handle enquiries in English, Spanish, French and German. Benahavís is not one market, and we can price both ends of it.

Our Benahavís work runs from apartments in the managed communities through to estate villas. That spread means our comparable evidence covers the whole municipality, not a single price band inside it.
Our advisors work in English, Spanish, French and German. The same advisor stays with an enquiry from the first call through to the notary.
Our Hamptons International partnership opens the Hamptons Private Office, used for ultra-premium and off-market instructions. In Benahavís that matters most in La Zagaleta, El Madroñal and Monte Mayor, where sales are frequently private.
We currently list 150+ properties for sale across Benahavís, from golf apartments to estate villas. That is enough live stock to know where the market actually sits this month, not just where it sat when it was last valued.
Benahavís is a traditional Andalucian whitewashed village situated just inland from the Costa del Sol and bordering Marbella in Malaga province.
Benahavís has something to suit everyone looking for luxury Costa del Sol property, from contemporary villas to modern apartments with cutting-edge technology and interiors.
Pricing is the hardest part of selling here. A villa in Paraíso Alto and a villa in La Zagaleta answer to different buyers, and evidence from one tells you very little about the other. We value against completed transactions rather than portal asking prices, then agree the marketing route with you. Some Benahavís properties do better with full public exposure. Others sell more effectively shown quietly to buyers we already know, and we will say which we think yours is.
Benahavís splits into distinct markets that do not price against each other. La Zagaleta, El Madroñal and Monte Mayor trade privately more often than publicly. La Quinta, Los Flamingos and Los Arqueros are golf-led, with Los Arqueros a 10-minute drive from the village. Real de La Quinta carries most of the current new-build activity. Puerto Banús is a 15-minute drive, Marbella old town 25 minutes, and Málaga Airport 52 minutes.

Buying in Benahavís follows the standard Spanish process: a reservation contract, due diligence by your lawyer, a private purchase contract, then completion at the notary. You will need an NIE number and a Spanish bank account, both of which can be arranged remotely with power of attorney. Purchase costs and taxes sit on top of the price and change from time to time, so we will introduce you to a Spanish lawyer to confirm the current position.
It depends on which of the municipality’s markets fits your brief. La Zagaleta, El Madroñal and Monte Mayor are the private, gated end, where a large share of sales never reach a portal. La Quinta, Los Flamingos and Los Arqueros are golf-led. Real de La Quinta carries most of the current new-build activity. We will narrow this with you before you start viewing.
In Spain the seller pays the agency commission and the buyer pays nothing to the agent. Our fee is set out in writing before any agreement is signed, and it is agreed against the marketing approach we recommend for the property.
Yes, and in the gated parts of Benahavís it is common. Owners in La Zagaleta, El Madroñal and Monte Mayor frequently sell without a public listing, so what is visible on portals is an incomplete picture of the market. Access depends on agent relationships and on Hamptons Private Office, through which we see instructions before they are published.
