The Marina Alta is a highly visited area, especially during holiday periods.
Our region is home to idyllic and, above all, paradisiacal corners and hidden treasures. But, living in the area permanently does not normally come cheaply. So, what are the cheapest places to settle and buy a home in the Marina Alta?
The five towns with the cheapest m2 in the Marina Alta
As expected, the most economical areas to live in are somewhat removed from most coastal tourist areas. The Idealista real estate information portal , which collects data on the average sale price (PMV) of various locations, clarifies this information.
Although the municipalities in the interior of the region do not have enough documentation to make totally accurate comparisons, the following ranking shows the five towns with the lowest PMV , ordered from highest to lowest price:
5. Gata de Gorgos is among the five towns with the lowest price per square metre, although it is the most expensive of the 5 . The figure for this figure is 1,316 euros/m2 . Statistics show that the cost has remained fairly stable since 2013, however it is now that the Gata PMV is experiencing the highest price increase since then.
4. Sanet i Negrals is in fourth place. The PMV per m2 there is 1,156 euros so, on average, a property can cost 170,250 euros . The Sanet study compiles figures only from 2018, despite this, in recent years, the town has experienced various falls and rises in price. Thus, the highest was in February 2019 with 1,579 euros/m2 and the lowest in April 2020 with 1,005 euros per square metre.
3.
