ADVISE ON PENTHOUSE IN DUQUESA PLEASE

Riviera very close to Fuengirola so closer to Malaga airport - considered perhaps a little "downmarket" by those up their own back passage - close to Calahonda in the opposite direction. Duquesa still very much a developing area not a lot there except the port but Sabanillas just down the road is very Spanish and quite a "bustling" town. Whether either will be cost effective will depend very much on you and how you work the rentals - you will need to be proactive and not rely on agents to get your property maxed out. I suspect it will be unlikely you will have much if  anything on top assuming you are taking a mortgage - if not then they should pay for themselves with a bit left over if you work the rentals and dont plan to use it yourself in the peak months of July and August when demand will be at its zenith along with the sun.

In my opinion and no insult to those in Riviera I think the best potential for capital growth is likely to be west of San Pedro - thus Estepona and beyond - when the new overpass/underpass (if they can make up their minds) is complete at San Pedro it will make that end of the coast a much more attractive proposition and more accessible - if the much rumoured Disney project goes ahead - whatever it is (assuming it happens) then there will be steady demand for proerty in the Duquesa/Manilva/Sabinillas areas. Gib airport opening up to more commercial flights in April should also help to have a positive effect.
