Who buys property on the west coast of Tenerife?
Buyers have traditionally been international, with a wide range of European nationalities, as well as Spanish investors from the mainland.
What buyers weigh up: Travel times from the South Airport are slightly longer than to the main resort areas. The area is ideal for retirees seeking a more relaxed lifestyle, while younger families may find it a little distant from Costa Adeje and the south. Beyond the immediate coastal areas there are more gradients and hillsides, which can be harder if mobility is limited.
A smaller market: presentation and price count
There is slightly less demand than in the main southern resorts. The location of a property, for example on a slope, can make it less attractive to older buyers.
In a smaller market, a well-presented property at a competitive price will attract the most interest.
