2 · Purpose
This document ranks new-build developments on the Costa del Sol by their golf setting and by the quality of the development, applying a ten-criterion matrix whose weightings and formulas are published and reproducible. Its purpose is informative and editorial.
3 · What it is not
- It does not constitute an offer or an invitation to enter into a contract. Malashpina Creativos does not market any of the developments analysed and does not act as an intermediary in their sale.
- It is not financial or investment advice. The score measures what it says it measures and nothing more: it does not predict capital growth, yield or suitability for any particular buyer.
- It does not replace the developer's own information. Prices, areas, unit counts, timescales and terms are those published by each developer at the date of this edition and may change without notice. Before making any decision, verify them at source.
4 · Where the data comes from, and corrections
The data comes from public sources, listed one by one on the sources page. Driving times were measured with OSRM over public coordinates and do not model real congestion. The course ratings cross several sources and, in the criteria marked as editorial, incorporate our own judgement, declared as such.
Any developer or agency may request the correction of a figure on its profile, or submit information through the trade form. The correction is checked against source and goes into the next edition. Submitting information does not change a score: the criteria and their weightings are the same for every development and are not negotiable.
5 · Conflicts of interest
These are declared on the profile of the development concerned, in plain sight and not in a footnote. There is one in this edition: the ZEW catalogue was produced by Malashpina Creativos, and this is stated in its editorial verdict.
6 · Intellectual property
The scoring matrix, the text, the design, the graphics and the code of this document are the property of TOIZ MARKETING S.L. Reproduction or commercial use requires written permission.

7 · Third-party trade marks

They are mentioned descriptively and for information, under the right of quotation. Their appearance implies no relationship, sponsorship, endorsement or connection with Malashpina Creativos.
