Domus Invest Group S.L. is a Costa del Sol real estate, investment, development, and market intelligence platform operating from Marbella since 1989. The group operates through four integrated functions: Domus Invest for property transactions and commercial distribution; Domus Invest for opportunity creation and investment structuring; Domus Eco Villas for factory-built residential development; and a dedicated Market Intelligence function covering the Costa del Sol property market in depth.

The firm operates as an intermediary between landowners, developers, investors, and international brokerage networks — structuring residential and resort opportunities, coordinating development teams, and distributing projects to qualified buyers across multiple markets. Laliberte’s four-decade career spans project coordination and commercialization roles across Europe, South America, and the United States, and the advisors and commercial partners who worked alongside him on those earlier ventures remain part of the Domus professional network today.

Coverage extends from Marbella and Benahavís through Estepona, Benalmádena, Mijas, Fuengirola, and the wider Málaga province. Clients include private buyers, family offices, and institutional investors seeking market insight, project coordination, or access to structured investment opportunities on the Costa del Sol.

How We Work

Our Operating Model

Domus Invest and Domus Invest operate as complementary platforms within the same professional network. Domus Invest is the opportunity creation arm: it identifies land and development sites, engages with landowners, evaluates feasibility, structures investment partnerships, and coordinates the formation of development teams and project structures. Domus Invest is the commercialization arm: it markets and distributes those structured opportunities through a network of independent brokers, reaching qualified buyers across Europe, North America, and Asia.

This separation between deal creation and distribution is deliberate. It allows each platform to focus on its core function without the conflicts that arise when a single entity attempts to serve investment clients and buyer clients simultaneously. Domus Invest works on behalf of capital and development. Domus Invest brings those projects to an international buyer base.

Southern Spain

Why the Costa del Sol
Continues to Attract
International Capital

Resale property prices in Málaga province rose 15.4% year-on-year in Q4 2025. By early 2026 the province had reached €4,082 per m² — the fourth highest of any province in Spain, behind only the Balearic Islands, Madrid, and Guipúzcoa. Prime residential yields across the Costa del Sol currently run at 5.5% to 7.5%, compared with 2–3% in equivalent locations along the French Riviera.

The demand driving these figures is structural, not cyclical. Northern European buyers, international family offices, and institutional capital continue to allocate to this corridor, supported by favourable fiscal conditions in Andalusia, a chronic deficit of developable land, and major hospitality infrastructure entering the market — among them a Four Seasons resort in Marbella and the Waldorf Astoria Marbella East. Domus Invest has tracked and participated in this market through every phase of its development since 1989.

01 Structural Supply Deficit

Residential starts in Málaga province for 2025 lagged 35% behind new household formation. With the €4,082 per m² price floor established in Q4, the deficit is the primary driver of capital appreciation.

02 Prime Yield Advantage

While the French Riviera struggles with 2% to 3% yields, the Costa del Sol is delivering 5.5% to 7.5% in the “Wellness Renter” niche. Energy-neutral assets are yielding a 22% higher net operating income (NOI) than traditional luxury builds.

03 Andalusia Fiscal Benefits

The 100% Wealth Tax rebate and the 99% reduction in Inheritance Tax have turned Andalusia into Europe’s premier “Wealth Magnet.” Combined with the 24% flat-tax “Beckham Law,” the region now rivals Dubai for capital preservation.

04 Institutional Capital Inflow

Entry of the Four Seasons and Waldorf Astoria Marbella East has validated the “Institutional Pivot.” ESG-mandated funds are now aggressively targeting A+ rated residential assets, creating a built-in exit strategy for private owners.

05 Anchor Project Pipeline

Our fixed 12-month build programme eliminates the “Timeline Risk” typical of Spanish development. With property prices in Estepona forecasted to rise by 9% in 2026, buying into the pipeline captures the “Completion Premium” for the investor.

06 Year-Round Demand Base

Off-season arrivals in Q4 2025 were 30% higher than 2019 benchmarks. The “Digital CEO” demographic has decoupled the Costa del Sol from the seasonal calendar, ensuring 365-day utility and rental demand.

Career Foundations

Four Decades Across
Multiple Ventures

Prior to founding Domus Invest, David Laliberte held leadership roles across a series of international property and resort companies including Global Development Ltd, Club La Costa Marketing, Crown Resorts, and South American Investments, with operations spanning Europe, North America, and South America. His career has been built on structuring development opportunities, coordinating landowner and investor relationships, and commercializing residential and resort projects at international scale.

Significant projects from that period include San Eliseo Golf and Country Club in Buenos Aires — a 966-plot residential golf community developed under David Laliberte’s leadership as a principal shareholder and development partner — and La Cala Resort on the Costa del Sol, a large-scale residential golf resort of approximately 3,000 units where the team handled commercialization and international market positioning.

Sunset Beach Club in Benalmádena (1994–2018) engaged Laliberte’s team on the repositioning, rebranding, and ongoing commercialization of a mixed-use resort owned by a publicly traded Irish insurance company. Rancho Santa Monica in Benalmádena (2013–2023) involved project concept structuring, landowner coordination, and the commercialization of a gated luxury villa community. The One Benalmádena (2018–2023) saw the team provide project concept creation, development coordination, and international commercialization services for a private investment group.

The advisors, architects, commercial partners, and financial professionals who worked alongside Laliberte on those earlier ventures continue to form the core of the Domus professional network today.

From Our Clients & Partners

★★★★★

Patricio Martín

Architect · PM Arquitectos

I’ve worked with Domus Invest and its founder since 1996 on everything from massive infrastructure projects to luxury residential. Our first big collaboration was La Cala Resort, which was a huge undertaking involving 3,000 units and three golf courses. More recently, we delivered Rancho Santa Monica, a 25-villa community. Across these projects — representing about €70 million in investment — they’ve consistently shown the kind of commercial judgment that’s hard to replicate. I’d recommend them to any investor looking for real execution on the Coast.

★★★★★

Mark Lawson

Founder · MDCI Spain

David and I first teamed up in 1988 on a 150-unit resort in Benalmádena, and we’ve been consulting for each other ever since. He has an incredibly deep grasp of the Costa del Sol market and a practical, no-nonsense way of structuring opportunities. If you need someone who actually knows how to move a project forward and get things done properly, he’s the person you call.

★★★★★

Javier Patricio

Design Architect · Innovaziona Arquitectos

We started working together in 2017 on a 20-unit luxury apartment project. We actually managed to pre-sell the entire development before the building license was even issued, which says a lot about the concept we defined. Currently, we are collaborating on La Seda in Mijas Pueblo, repositioning a 12-villa site into a 98-key hotel. David is great at aligning the design and specifications with exactly what the market is looking for.

★★★★★

Juan Manuel Díaz

Technical Architect · Innovaziona Arquitectos

My collaboration with David since 2017 has been very focused on the ‘nuts and bolts’ — reviewing feasibility, cost structures, and development margins for luxury builds in Marbella and Benalmádena. He brings a clear commercial perspective to the technical side of development. He’s consistent, practical, and a very trusted partner for our team.

★★★★★

Maribel Cuevas

Industrial Engineer · Callero & Cuevas Ingenieros

I worked with David on the build-out of two luxury villas at Rancho Santa Monica and a refurbishment in Benahavís. What stands out is his ability to coordinate all the different parties on a site to keep the momentum going. He’s particularly good at resolving the technical issues that always pop up during a build, and he communicates well with both the consultants and the contractors.

★★★★★

Eduardo Sánchez

Administrator · Arkiect Systems Group

David helped us refine our entire approach at Arkiect shortly after we launched in 2024. He was instrumental in helping us position our industrialized construction methods for the high-end residential market. His input on how we engage with projects and his ability to connect us with the right partners has been incredibly valuable to our growth.

★★★★★

David Sánchez

Founder & CEO · Arkiect Systems Group

When I founded Arkiect, we were defining our direction in the industrialized sector. David quickly understood our model and helped us focus on the higher-quality segments of the Costa del Sol. His guidance was key in aligning our specifications with the expectations of more demanding investors. He’s a trusted partner for anyone looking to bring well-positioned projects to market.

★★★★★

Rafael Sabán

CEO · Sabán Construcciones

I’ve worked with David on a variety of luxury villas and a 20-unit apartment project. He’s involved from start to finish and is particularly effective at making sure the project specifications align with what buyers actually want. He plays a major role in keeping the communication lines open between everyone involved, which is what keeps a project moving.

★★★★★

Private Investor

20-Unit Luxury Development · Benalmádena

Working with the Domus team from the initial concept in 2017 through to our exit in 2022 was a great experience. They took full responsibility for the process — design, construction, and commercial positioning — and their market understanding was reflected in our sales performance. The project ultimately exceeded our return expectations.

★★★★★

Edwin Cras

Private Client · Villa Design & Build

We met David in 2022 and were immediately impressed by how he could adapt a project to our specific needs. He introduced us to the right architects and stayed involved through every stage of design and construction. His approach is very different from a typical agent; he takes a personal interest in the build and is always there to support the process.

★★★★★

Nico Segers

Investor & Consultant

David and I have been working together since 1989 across Spain, Israel, and Argentina. Over decades of shared business interests, I’ve found him to be incredibly resourceful and dependable. He has a unique ability to navigate complex transactions and align stakeholders, always operating with a level of integrity that is critical in international business.

★★★★★

Richard Jackson

Private Investor & Real Estate Developer · LinkedIn

I first met David in 1983, and that relationship evolved into a long-term partnership across markets like Texas, Massachusetts, and Argentina. This breadth of experience has seen us through many different market conditions. David consistently identifies opportunities early and, most importantly, executes them through to completion. His discipline and reliability are what define success in this business.

★★★★★

Trevor Atwell

Architect · LinkedIn

We met in 2020 while working on a project in Albania. Coming from a background of residential skyscrapers in NYC, I’ve seen firsthand David’s ability to bridge the gap between creative design and commercial viability. He ensures that design decisions are grounded in financial reality without losing the original vision. He’s been a vital part of aligning the stakeholders for our site in Albania.

★★★★★

Trevor Pothacary

Mortgage Banker · LinkedIn

I’ve worked with David since 2013 on several large-scale development opportunities. He is particularly effective in environments where most projects stall; he knows how to navigate multi-party negotiations and align interests in challenging jurisdictions. We recently reached an agreement for a major hospitality resort in Vlorë, Albania, which simply wouldn’t have happened without David’s persistence and deal-making capability.

★★★★★

Mike Wilson

Developer & Majority Shareholder

Since 2013, I’ve worked closely with David on our Albanian projects. He has a knack for operating in complex environments where alignment and execution are critical. As a majority shareholder, I value capital protection and progress above all else; David has been instrumental in delivering both by keeping our projects commercially grounded and moving forward.

Market Intelligence

A Working Knowledge
of the Costa del Sol Market

Domus Invest tracks and analyses pricing trends, development pipelines, planning activity, international demand patterns, investment flows, and regional growth across the Costa del Sol. This analysis is published through the Market Intelligence platform as part of the ongoing advisory and commercialization work carried out by both Domus Invest and Domus Invest. That analysis covers Marbella, Benahavís, Estepona, Benalmadena, Mijas, Fuengirola, and the wider Málaga province — at the level of individual micromarkets, not headline averages alone. This is active market monitoring that draws on 39 years of accumulated experience across the professional network behind Domus Invest.

That body of knowledge informs both client strategy and the firm’s published market commentary and research output. When a client is evaluating a site in Benahavís, structuring an investment in Estepona, or tracking the performance of a portfolio asset on the Costa del Sol, the data and context provided by Domus Invest reflects decades of direct involvement in the market rather than a snapshot assembled from third-party sources alone.
