Properties by golf courses attract entrepreneurs and investors because, besides luxury and a quiet lifestyle, they give access to an environment in which business relationships and contacts are built naturally. Premium clients in Spain increasingly rarely buy just an apartment or a house. The surroundings, the community and the lifestyle a given location offers are just as important to them, especially on the Costa Blanca and the Costa del Sol.
How has the perception of golf properties changed?
The subject of networking, business relationships and the communities created around golf courses increasingly comes up in conversations about the premium property market. Among other things, I had the opportunity to talk about this as an expert in a Forbes publication. I pointed out there how much the expectations of clients buying property in Spain are changing.
- A few years ago properties by golf courses were associated mainly with luxury and a quiet lifestyle.
- Today they are also spaces for building business relationships and networking. It is an environment that entrepreneurs and investors from all over the world seek out deliberately.
Why does a golf course foster business relationships?
Golf courses have long been a meeting place for people who run businesses, invest capital or manage large companies. But it is not only about the sport itself. Above all, it is an environment that fosters conversation and getting to know people in more natural conditions than traditional business meetings or conferences.
As I mentioned in my Forbes publication, formal hierarchies present in the everyday world of business fade away much faster on a golf course. For several hours, company presidents, investors, managers and people only just building their professional position find themselves side by side. In practice, the way you communicate, good manners and the ability to find your place in a given community matter more than your job title.
That is why many people treat a golf property not only as a place to live or relax. For them it is also a long-term investment in their environment and contacts.
What do premium clients buying a golf property look for?
There is a clear trend on the premium property market in Spain. Clients increasingly look for places that offer more than a good location and a modern apartment. What matters most to them is:
- security,
- privacy,
- quality of the surroundings,
- access to premium infrastructure,
- a close-knit community,
- the opportunity to build relationships and business contacts.
Small golf communities often create an atmosphere that cannot be matched in large, anonymous resorts. The choice of this kind of location is decided by regular get-togethers, shared activities and a calmer lifestyle.
Why Costa Blanca and Costa del Sol in particular?
In Spain, properties located by golf courses on the Costa Blanca and the Costa del Sol are particularly popular. Both regions have attracted international investors for years thanks to three factors:
- the climate,
- well-developed infrastructure,
- the high standard of premium developments.
Many modern developments are built directly next to renowned golf resorts. Residents have access not only to the golf course, but also to restaurants, wellness areas, gyms and private clubs.
For some clients, a comfortable lifestyle matters above all. For others, it is a deliberate choice of the environment in which they want to function, both privately and in business.
A premium property today is more than square metres
The premium property market has changed a great deal in recent years. Emotions, experiences and the quality of everyday life matter more and more.
Clients assess not only the view from the terrace or the standard of finish. They also check who lives in the area, what relationships can be built there and what daily life in a given place is like. That is why golf properties remain among the most sought-after locations in the premium segment.
