What Gestilar does

Gestilar is a privately held Spanish residential property developer founded in 2009 and headquartered in Madrid, with regional offices across Spain (Madrid, Galicia, Catalonia, Andalusia, Balearic Islands) and Portugal (Lisbon). The company develops, markets, and sells new-build residential projects including apartments, townhouses, chalets, and cooperative housing units, with prices ranging from approximately €260,000 for cooperative units in Galicia to over €2.45 million for luxury penthouses in Marbella. The portfolio comprises 6,300+ projected homes since inception, with 3,300 delivered and 1,500 currently in active development across more than 50 projects. Technical differentiation centers on energy-efficient construction: most developments achieve Calificación Energética A through aerothermal underfloor heating, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, solar panels, and ventilated facades; supplementary features include saline chlorination pools and smart parcel delivery systems.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer sales-led model via regional sales offices and a multilingual website with appointment-scheduling and zone/typology inquiry forms. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time residential property sales plus professional-services fees from Cooper by Gestilar for managing housing cooperative memberships and construction coordination. Customer segments include individual buyers purchasing primary residences, vacation homes, or investment properties across Spain and Portugal, plus cooperative members seeking cost-effective homeownership. Bank financing is provided by Spain's six largest banks (Bankinter, BBVA, CaixaBank, Ibercaja, Sabadell, Santander) plus Millennium BCP in Portugal.

Gestilar is led by CEO Raúl Guerrero and operates a group structure (Grupo Gestilar) comprising three wholly-owned subsidiaries alongside the core developer: Gestilar Construcciones (in-house construction subsidiary established 2019, covering 1,400+ active homes), Homes by Gestilar (proptech launched 2022 for purchase, renovation, and resale of existing properties), and Cooper by Gestilar (cooperative housing management launched 2022). The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certifications and operates a corporate social responsibility platform, GestilART, focused on artist patronage. Legal entity is Gestilar Servicios Inmobiliarios S.L.U., incorporated in Spain.
