In this week’s Two Minute Tuesday episode, Keith from Target Property Spain delivers one of the most essential breakdowns for anyone considering a move to the Costa del Sol: the true cost of living in Mijas Costa in 2025.
As more expats relocate from the UK, Ireland, Scandinavia, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany, understanding real monthly expenses has become more important than ever. In this concise yet information-packed video, Keith reveals exactly what newcomers can expect to spend — without the guesswork.
A Clear, Honest Look at Expenses
The video covers the full spectrum of living costs in Mijas Costa, including:
- Housing – rental ranges, purchase prices, and even a realistic mortgage example
- Community fees for apartments and gated developments
- Utilities – electricity, water, and fibre optic internet
- Groceries & dining out – what expats typically spend monthly
- Transport – fuel, insurance, and ITV inspections
- Lifestyle costs – gyms, golf, private healthcare, and more
Unlike many generic cost-of-living guides online, Keith’s breakdown is current, local, and based on real figures from daily life in La Cala, Riviera del Sol, Calahonda, and the surrounding areas.
