Firstly visiting a place and living there may be totally different so perhaps better to come over when travel restrictions permit and research 

Due to covid ,Brexit etc the tourism has been hard hit in Costa del sol so research is essential . In malaga city its very noticeable that tourists are absent especially from cruises ...

Thanks for that info, hopefully tourism will return soon

Thanks for the info but I have an Irish passport so im an EU citizen

Not sure about the other two but Alhaurin El Grande could do with more guest house. During summer the few guest houses are full and air b&b gets booked out completely and the big hotel only opens weekends and for weddings only. 
Interestingly is that during autumn winter and spring there is a huge influx of people into the Sierra above Alhaurin but due to lack of guest houses it’s not been advertised as an overnight destination and all those day trippers have to leave in the evenings. It wouldn’t take much to market to this group and then you have full time occupancy all year around. 
For anyone that hasn’t tried the various hiking routes of the Sierra in Alhaurin... you’re missing out! Stunning walks and views!!!

HiI own a village house as a holiday home, in Vinuela There is a property for sale just across the street from us which is at the moment a BB. There is also a very very large building at the rear of the property that could be converted into a apartment as well. It has three double bedrooms all with shower toilet sink separate dining kitchen area and great sitting out area  etc. If I was in my forties I would definitely  had a go as there is still loads of room to improve.  The area is great for the lake fishing cycling walking and the list goes on. The couple are selling as she like me is in her 70s if they sell they are still going to live in the village. its defenatly woth a look.
