| Cascada de Camoján | 2.1% | 1.5% |
| Sierra Blanca | 2.4% | 1.7% |

Holiday rental (VFT licence required)
Roughly 70-100% higher gross yield than long-term, but: - 35-50% vacancy (vs 10-20% long-term) - 20-30% management fees (vs 8-15%) - Andalucía VFT licence required since 2023 - Community can ban (some Marbella urbanisations have done so)
Critical gotchas this calculator doesn't model
- Capital appreciation: Marbella prime appreciated 4-8%/year 2020-2025. Real return = net yield + appreciation, so a 2% net yield property might still deliver 8-10% total return.
- Vacancy: especially for holiday rentals, the 35-50% vacancy reality
- VFT licence: holiday rental without it is illegal in most Andalucía municipalities since 2023
- Specific property variance: same-zone properties can differ ±30% in actual yield based on view / floor / beach proximity
