The Costa del Sol property market has changed in 2026 and almost no other agency on this coast is willing to say it out loud.

In this Q2 2026 Market Update episode of The Costa Property Podcast, Sandra and Warner sit down for an honest, no-spin breakdown of what has actually happened on the Costa del Sol in the first half of 2026, and the buyer-profile shift every international buyer needs to understand before they take their next step.

You'll hear ⬇️

✔️ The Costa del Sol Q2 2026 market shift agencies are leaving out of their content

✔️ The fundamental buyer-profile change: investors down, relocators up

✔️ Why if you were competing with 10 buyers in 2025, you're now competing with 3 to 5

✔️ The €1.2 million cash-villa we closed last week and what it tells you about leverage in 2026 ✔️ Why prices are NOT crashing despite the world feeling uncertain

✔️ What the lower transaction volume actually means (and why the average price is up)

✔️ Warner's specific advice for international buyers planning to act on the Costa del Sol in 2026 ✔️ The €100 million Tivoli World investment and Málaga Airport expansion driving Benalmádena demand

In this episode of The Costa Property Podcast, Sandra Laurie sits down solo to unpack the single biggest mistake she sees international buyers make on their Costa del Sol buying trip and how to make sure you don't make it yourself.

The team at WL Costa Properties have spent 30+ years combined experience walking international buyers through the Costa del Sol coastline. We know exactly where the trip falls apart, what causes the burnout by day three, and what the buyers who get it right do differently.

You'll hear ⬇️

• Why most buying trips fail before they even begin (and it has nothing to do with the properties)
• The lifestyle-first framework that flips the entire buying process on its head
• Why you should NEVER try to see the full 160km Costa del Sol coastline in one trip
• Sandra's exact 3-location shortlist method and how to choose yours
• Why hiring a car is non-negotiable
• How to pace a buying trip like a local, not a tourist
• The 3 things you MUST do before you book your flights

Thinking about your own Costa del Sol buying trip in 2026?
