A measured profile of a 2‑bed Marbella apartment and how Pure Living Properties positions such assets for international buyers — from turnkey features to yield considerations.

Nestled in Marbella, property HQL-VKG3J represents a compact, investment-ready example of what experienced local brokerage can deliver: a 126 sqm, two-bedroom apartment with terrace, garden and communal pool offered at EUR 895,000.

The photographs provided with the listing show a deliberately light, tenant-friendly layout: a generous living area that opens to a terrace and private garden, two well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms. The images underline a key value proposition for international buyers — turnkey presentation. Furnishings, air conditioning and outdoor amenities reduce immediate capex for short-term rentals or seasonal letting.
Spanning 126.00 m² (internal/living area equal to plot area in the listing), this 1984-built apartment provides two bedrooms and two bathrooms — a configuration that balances market demand in Marbella between leisure renters and small-family long-term tenants. The asking price of EUR 895,000 implies a price per square metre around EUR 7,103, a baseline figure investors should compare with nearby stock before projecting yields.

Treat this property as a two-part analysis: capital value (price per m² and appreciation potential) and income potential (rental yields). Marbella’s short-term rental demand remains concentrated in well-located, sea‑accessible units with outdoor space — characteristics this apartment offers. The private garden plus communal pool increases its seasonal attractiveness and reduces vacancy risk compared to window‑only city flats.
Points investors should quantify before committing:
• Net yield projections using realistic occupancy (seasonal market: model 50–65% annual occupancy for short-term letting).
• Total cost of ownership: community fees, utilities, insurance, and a conservative maintenance buffer for garden/pool upkeep.

Pure Living Properties has 16 years operating in Marbella and a focused specialisation across luxury, vacation homes and rental management. Their average rating (4.5) and an internal score of 87.04/100 indicate consistent service quality. For international buyers, that experience translates into three concrete advantages: local market calibration, compliance support for cross-border purchases, and turnkey handover for immediate rental listing.
• Neighborhood due diligence: zoning, community rules and rental restrictions.
• Financial modelling: tailored yield forecasts, stress tests for seasonality and cost-of-ownership scenarios.
• On-the-ground property preparation: furnishing recommendations (as shown in the images), sourcing local contractors, and managing pool/garden contracts to preserve rental-ready condition.

Pure Living Properties favours assets that combine location, rentable features and low immediate capex — elements visible in this apartment. The terrace and private garden increase net usable area without expensive structural work; furnishing lowers time-to-market; and a communal pool enhances comparative rental rates. The listing images emphasise factual selling points (room proportions, outdoor space and pool access) rather than lifestyle hyperbole — consistent with a dossier-driven approach that international investors rely on.
1) Clear tenant proposition: size, outdoor amenities and furnishings.
2) Cost transparency: community fees, insurance and expected maintenance.
3) Legal and tax alignment for non‑resident owners (local counsel coordination).

Marbella combines high-season tourism, a steady expatriate resident base and an active second-home market. Drivers: proximity to coast and golf, limited new central stock, and strong short-term rental demand in summer months. Risks: seasonality that compresses winter yields, regulatory adjustments to short-term lets, and rising running costs for communal amenities. For the apartment shown, factor seasonal occupancy and community charges into a 5‑year hold model to test net returns under conservative scenarios.
• Run three occupancy scenarios (high 75%, base 55%, low 35%) and compare net yields after fees and tax.
• Include stamp duty, non‑resident tax rates and an allowance for management fees (typical Marbella rental managers charge 15–25% of gross rent).

This two‑bedroom Marbella apartment is best suited to international buyers targeting a balanced mix of seasonal income and capital preservation: owners who accept moderate seasonality in exchange for lower turnaround costs and immediate rental readiness. Pure Living Properties’ dossier-driven process, local market tenure and operational services make them a practical partner for cross-border investors evaluating assets of this scale.
As shown in the listing images, the combination of garden, terrace and pool is the property’s primary differentiator — ask Pure Living Properties for the full performance pack (comparable rents, occupancy data and community accounts) before progressing to offer.
