ON YOUR SIDE.
The real estate market in Spain is poorly regulated, transparency is inexistent and realtors who show you properties, work for the sellers, not for you. It is a jungle for buyers and regrettable mistakes are unfortunately made too easy too often. At the same time good properties sell quickly, so quick decisions might be needed. We are independent Buyer Agents and help you search, evaluate and buy the best property in Spain. We are on the buyer’s side.
We also constantly invest in properties ourselves too. That experience is priceless for our customers!
