However, in order to get started and to deliver a successful outcome, there are several steps that you\u2019ll need to follow.

\nStep 1: Research, research and research again\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

You may have an image in your mind of the perfect bespoke villa. This is good starting point, but before any hard and fast decisions are made, it is advisable to do your research. You can start by taking a look at types of properties in your area, check out property magazines and real estate agency websites, like Marbella & Co<\/strong> <\/a>for inspiration.<\/p>

By taking an interest in the different styles of architecture, layouts and features, you may discover ideas that you would like to incorporate into your new build villa. This could be anything from choosing a cool contemporary Scandinavian architectural style with a minimal open-plan interior, to the appliances in the kitchen or even the size and position of the windows and patios doors.<\/p>

Equally important, there may be new building techniques such as m2Casas\u2019 preferred sustainable material, autoclaved lightweight concrete and sustainable energy systems and smart home technology that you could incorporate into your designs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Once you have done your research and have a more defined idea of how you see your new house construction taking shape, it\u2019s time to set your budget. Before you go any further, you need to take a realistic look at your finances and decide a figure that you can comfortably afford to spend. This may include arranging a \u2018self-build\u2019 mortgage through a Spanish bank for developing your own home.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

It\u2019s all very well deciding to build your perfect tailor-made home, but before you can get the project off the ground, you\u2019ll need to decide where you want to build a house. If you have already found your perfect plot of land with planning permission, that is great! If not, you could ask for assistance from real estate agents or a trusted property developer with expert knowledge of your preferred location.<\/p>

m2Casas can provide expert guidance about the suitability of specific plots to clients considering building custom homes in Marbella. They can help you find the perfect land plot<\/a> <\/strong>and work through the land due diligence checklist on your behalf, making sure you have the urban planning certificate (certificado urbanistico) verifying whether the land complies with local regulations or if there are any limitations for its development.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\nStep 4: Find an architect to design your home\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The next step is to contract an architect to design your dream home and pay the associated fees. In Spain, the fees are calculated as a percentage of the building costs (Presupuesto de Ejecuci\u00f3n Material), excluding IVA and profit. Finding the right architect is one of the most critical decisions you will make, as you are placing your dreams in their hands. You need to find architect who will listen and understand your desires, concerns, red lines and wish lists, and provide the best solutions to fit your needs and budget.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\nSteps 5: Permissions and paperwork\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The next step is to deal with the Spanish bureaucracy required to obtain planning permission and building permits. Your architect will need to file the preliminary plans with the Town Hall and then later apply for planning permission by submitting more detailed plans specifying details such as the built areas and usable areas, materials etc.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Once your plans and permissions are in place, you need to find a reputable construction team with the right expertise and experience. The documents prepared by your architect can be used when putting your project out for tender. This will allow contractors to bid for the work, which allows you to get the best price but this should form the basis for your decision alone, experience, attitude and recommendations are equally important.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

As touched upon briefly earlier\u2026imagine if you could contract all of the necessary expertise under one roof. If a specialist custom homes construction and development company could provide an experienced in-house architect to design your home, real estate experts to source your land plot, a legal team to apply the right permits, and experienced contactors with a proven track record in sustainable home construction.
