Three key factors need to be assessed to find the right price for a home in Spain, Spanish property portal Kyero.com has stated.

In advice that may help Costa del Sol property buyers to pay the right amount, the site said that the floor area, the last purchase date and the price paid at that time all needed to be known to arrive at an accurate figure.

It noted that the vendor should be able to reveal the price details, while once the floor area is known a study of the highest and lowest price range figures from the Idealista, Fotocasa and the Ministry of Housing property indexes will help calculate the price.

Such measures could help Costa del Sol property buyers approach their purchase with a clearer idea of how much they will pay.

Those looking to the region can enjoy very different locations according to their taste, the Daily Mirror has suggested.

The paper has said Malaga, Nerja and Granada each offer varying attributes in terms of history, culture, nightlife, beaches and atmosphere.
