Its streets hold one of Spain's richest collections of modernist architecture, and the old fortified quarter rises above the harbour. Ferries and flights link it to the mainland.

What to know before investing in Melilla

Melilla property investment is shaped by scale. In a compact city, the most interesting finds are often apartments in restored modernist buildings or homes with open views of the sea. When a well-preserved building does appear, its façade, ironwork and original details deserve as much attention as the floor plan.

Rules in the city can differ from the mainland, so ask a specialist to confirm how they apply to you and let a lawyer check the building and the title before you sign.
