Maiti Homes has focused on Marbella and the Costa del Sol since the late 1990s, building its reputation on high‑value townhouses, vacation homes, new developments and managed rentals. International purchasers find value in the agency’s deliberate curation: each property is chosen for location, build quality and investment potential rather than short‑term appeal.

Specialist services: vacation, investment and new build

The agency lists new developments alongside renovated villas and townhouses, and it markets properties with clear rental potential to buyers seeking yield. Their rental and property‑management offering means clients can buy with confidence knowing there is an operational pathway to short‑term or long‑term lettings on the coast.

Multilingual, local team and ethical positioning

Led by founder Marianne Steneholm, Maiti Homes presents a multilingual team that routinely works with Nordic, UK and wider European clients. Beyond transactions the firm channels part of its proceeds to Maiti Nepal, signalling a social purpose that many international clients value when choosing a long‑term partner on the coast.

How Maiti Homes Handles Common Buyer Challenges

International buyers frequently worry about language barriers, local practice and unseen maintenance issues. Maiti Homes addresses these concerns by combining in‑market experience with direct operational services — from curated viewings to after‑sale management — so clients face fewer gaps between purchase and occupation.

A methodical, documented search process

Rather than a scattergun approach, the agency builds a shortlist using strict filters: neighbourhood quality, construction standards and rental profile. By vetting properties before viewings and coordinating showings with other listing agents, they reduce wasted trips and reveal hidden gems that match an investor’s brief.

Real examples: problem solving and local leverage

On several occasions Maiti Homes has arranged inspections, liaised with local councils and suggested remedial works prior to sale—practical steps that have preserved value and prevented post‑completion disputes. Their network across the Costa del Sol affords quicker access to trades, surveyors and rental platforms.
