A quick word on how to find your dream property

There are two (actually one smart) ways to find your ideal Spanish property:

  1. On your own with the help of a local Spanish real estate lawyer
  2. With the help of a property buyer (only working for you, not working for a seller) with the help of a local Spanish real estate lawyer

Yes sure, and some try it on their own, without a lawyer to save some pennies. Agreed.
Let’s tell us why we have built our network of local property hunters:

Of course, you can decide to search independently and think you will save money. As you don’t know the local markets, you won’t know if the properties’ prices are correct, you won’t know if the neighbourhood is safe,… you will miss a lot of issues. Last but not least, most of the time you live in a foreign country and can’t visit a property easily, so a first screening to optimise your visits is also beneficial.

So, at first, you might think that working with a property hunter in Spain would be costly. Still, many of our customers made a lot of money thanks to their services: by not buying a crap property, by not buying a property at the wrong location and as well thanks to the price negotiation of our partner with the seller.

The 7 reasons why a personal real estate shopper in Spain is a MUST for your property search:

 

#1 He knows the market

#2 He will save money for you

#3 He may have access to off-market properties

#4 He will save you time

#5 He will protect your interests

#6 He speaks Spanish and your language

#7 He will find solutions after your purchase

In this article, you will discover some of the missions that our local hunters have carried out in each Spanish Costas.
