Buying a house or Land in Spain
We are not estate agents, but we are very much in touch with the local housing market due to our activities in the business of valuations, which are carried out as a legal requirement in the process of arranging all mortgages and are regulated by the National Bank of Spain. This gives us an excellent overview of the way in which property prices vary throughout the region, and involves us in daily searches of property websites.
We have established good relations with reputable estate agents by doing regular business with them. Part of the function of the valuer is to establish if there are any existing, sometimes hidden ‘problems’ associated with a given property which potentially could complicate the process of its purchase or even detract from its market value. In this way, those estate agents who are not altogether straightforward in the way that they market their properties can be quickly identified.
We are able therefore to undertake on your behalf comprehensive searches for the type of property which may interest you and suit your budget.
In addition we can help organise viewing trips if you are not currently living locally, once the search has been narrowed down and you are ready to see a selection of appropriate Catalan properties.
Whether you are a young family wishing to ‘relocate’ or an older couple looking for a retirement home, we can say that personally, we have found this part of Spain has a huge amount to offer in terms of quality of life, from clean beaches and climate to health services and community spirit.
