How we sell your home step by step (and without complications)
The commission is usually between 3% to 6% of the sale price, depending on the type of property, its value, the exclusivity of the assignment and the services included (marketing, home-staging, professional photography). At Pineapple Homes, we provide clear commission options with no hidden costs for properties in Torremolinos.
In addition to the purchase price, there are taxes such as Property Transfer Tax (ITP) or VAT for new construction, notary fees, registry costs, administrative fees, energy certificate, possible municipal taxes in Torremolinos, local capital gains tax and IBI. Our team advises you from the beginning to estimate these costs specific to the Torremolinos market.
It depends greatly on the area within Torremolinos, the condition of the property and the price. Well-located properties in La Carihuela or El Bajondillo, well-priced with good presentation usually sell within 2-6 months; others may require more time, especially in less demanded areas or with uncompetitive prices.

It depends on what you value most: Torremolinos Centro offers urban life, proximity to services, public transport and generally lower prices per square meter; La Carihuela provides traditional seafaring atmosphere, beach proximity, seafood restaurants and higher tourist demand.
