Investment Potential
Valtocado is mainly a lifestyle choice for permanent residents and families who want more space than the coast can offer. Detached homes with land are in demand among buyers relocating to the Costa del Sol, and some owners let them as holiday villas with the necessary tourist licence. As with any rural property in Andalucía, it is essential to have a lawyer check the legal status of the house, any extensions, access and water supply before buying.
Living in Valtocado
Life in Valtocado is quiet and depends on a car, but it is never far from town. Supermarkets, schools, health centres and sports facilities are found in Las Lagunas and Fuengirola, while Mijas Pueblo offers a village atmosphere close by.
