The main aspects that affect the final price of your home are the plot, the design, the materials and the licenses. Knowing the particularities of each of them, you can determine how much it costs to build a house like the one you really need.

The flat areas, which do not require such intense work in terms of support and foundations, reduce the cost in materials and labor and allow the architect simpler engineering solutions.

How much does it cost to build a house in Costa Blanca?

Let’s suppose that you want a house with contemporary style, of approximately 200m2, to give you 3 large bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, kitchen, living room, terraces and pool. To build it, you have chosen a plot of 800m2 with a value of € 100,000. After considering the costs corresponding to notary services, which are around 1,500 € and 10% of ITP, the last one in case that you have chosen a particular land, you must go in search of an architect to present their ideas and conceive the draft. The contract price for a property of 200 m2 is around € 30,000, without ignoring that issues such a topography will generate extra expenses, as well as obtaining the corresponding license to be issue by the town hall, without which it not be possible to initiate the edification. For it, an amount equal to 5% of the total construction price estimated by the architect must be paid, although this value usually varies depending on the municipality.
The later step would be finding a company able to carry out the construction of the plan developed by your architect. At this moment, the sharpness in the selection is important; it is necessary to have enough references to obtain the desired results. In Costa Blanca the prices range is between € 850 and € 1,600 per m2, depending on the qualities.
Let’s say that you have chosen an average quality, which will have a value of € 1,200 per m2. For a house of 200 m2 including swimming pool and landscaped, the total would be € 240,000, plus 10% VAT. Then we need the license of first occupation obtained in the town hall, for which it is necessary to pay around 1% of the construction price and the declaration of new work.
Finally, we will see the costs corresponding to the hiring of electricity, water, Internet, among others; as well as lawyer’s fees, if legal services are used during the process.
In summary, the house we have taken as an example has an approximate value of € 400,000 plus VAT of 10%, given that the latter may vary depending on the location.
