Like apartments, maisonettes for sale are also ideal for first-time buyers searching for a property for sale in Malta. They are compact and affordable and thanks to having a dedicated entrance area, they offer privacy.
Penthouses

Terraced houses
Maltese terraced houses come equipped with adequate space and outdoor areas like a front garden or a backyard perfect for any young couple searching for a residential home to start their family.
Houses of Character
Purchasing a house of character as a first first-time buyer? Although the majority of houses of character for sale need a bit of love and care, if the price falls under the stipulated scheme, enjoy a home with unique and traditional characteristics.
Townhouses
Townhouses that have been built for more than 20 years or others which have been vacant for more than 7 years within specific Urban Conservation Areas (UCAs) are also perfect for first-time buyers. Explore the available townhouses.
First time buyer schemes
As was recently launched in the 2023 budget, first time buyers buying property in Malta are eligible to purchase any type of home on the market.
