Which region in Spain or Portugal fits me?

The 12 regions we work in differ sharply: Marbella and Mallorca are premium locations with a matching price positioning, Valencia and Porto explicitly market themselves as "30 to 40% cheaper" than their respective capital, the Canary Islands as one of the most tax-efficient environments in Spain. The character differs too — city flair in Valencia or Porto, quiet coast on the Costa Brava or Algarve, island year-round climate on Tenerife or Madeira, premium location in Marbella or Ibiza. The region finder below matches your preferences to the three best-fitting regions in about a minute. Beyond price, the practical differences are the transfer tax of the autonomous community, the depth of the rental market outside the season, and how well the area works in winter. The finder weighs country, character, price positioning and intended use, and returns the three regions that fit your answers most closely.

    What's behind the region finder

    Four questions, no purchase recommendation

    The region finder doesn't replace location consulting — it matches your preferences to the three regions that fit best on paper. The price positioning deliberately isn't based on invented budget thresholds, but on how each region positions itself in the market — Valencia and Porto explicitly as a price-conscious alternative to their capital, Marbella and Mallorca as premium locations.

    Tax rates differ substantially between regions — from 7% ITP in Andalusia through 9% on the Costa Blanca (11% above €1m) and 6.5% ITP in the Canary Islands to Portugal's flat IMT rate. We work through these details once a region is set — they don't belong in the first rough match.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked

    Is the result a purchase recommendation?
    No. The region finder gives a rough match of your preferences to the three best-fitting regions. The final decision depends on many further factors — viewings, market conditions, personal priorities — that a questionnaire can't capture.
    Why ask about "price positioning" instead of a budget in euros?
    Because every region positions itself differently, yet large price ranges exist within each region — the Costa Blanca, for example, covers both upscale and price-conscious locations. We discuss your specific budget in euros in a personal conversation, alongside the mortgage calculator.
    Can I consider several regions at once?
    Yes, and we recommend it — the region finder deliberately shows three results, not just one. Many buyers compare two to three regions in parallel before committing.
    What if none of the three suggested regions convinces me?
    Then get in touch directly — the 12 region pages cover the locations we work in intensively, but your priorities in a personal conversation count more than any pre-assessment.
