Buying Process

In Spain, individuals can apply for a mortgage through a bank. Spanish nationals and residents may be able to obtain financing of up to 90% of the property’s purchase price, while foreign and non-resident buyers may be eligible for financing of up to 70%. To apply for a mortgage in Spain, you will generally need to demonstrate a stable and consistent source of income.

In addition to the purchase price, you should bear in mind that in Andalusia a 7% tax generally applies to resale properties, while new-build properties are generally subject to 10% VAT. You should also allow for other costs such as legal representation, notary fees and Land Registry fees, where applicable.

No. We can show you properties from across the market and will do our best to find the perfect property for you. We work closely with real estate agencies and developers throughout the area, giving us access to a wide range of resale properties and new developments.  

We divide the buying process into four steps:

  • STEP 1 — OFFER: Once we have viewed several properties and you have found the one you want to buy, we begin with an offer. This is not only about negotiating the price with the seller; we may also agree on other important aspects of the transaction, such as furniture, the timeframe for signing the deposit agreement and completing at the notary, and how certain costs will be handled. It may sound like a lot, but don’t worry — we’ll guide you through the entire process.
  • STEP 2 — DEPOSIT AGREEMENT (ARRAS OR PPC): Once the terms have been agreed, both parties sign a formal agreement setting out the conditions of the sale. At this stage, the buyer will typically pay 10% of the property price as a deposit, formalising their commitment to the purchase.
  • STEP 3 — NOTARY: Once the agreed timeframe has passed and the buyer has the necessary funds available — whether through their own funds or mortgage financing — the sale is completed by signing the public title deed before a notary. Although this stage can sometimes feel intimidating, it is usually the simplest part of the process.
  • STEP 4 — ENJOY YOUR NEW HOME: You’re now the new owner! 🏡

Selling Process

Once you've decided to put your property on the market, one of the most challenging steps is often determining the right asking price. Professional advice can make all the difference. We can carry out a comprehensive market analysis using specialised real estate tools to compare similar properties currently for sale as well as those recently sold. This allows us to recommend a price based on current market conditions, your individual circumstances and your desired timeframe for the sale. We can provide you with a detailed market valuation, with no obligation. 🙂

We understand that entrusting someone with what may be one of your most valuable assets is not an easy decision. That’s why it’s important to work with someone you genuinely trust to guide you throughout the process. The right agent, backed by a strong and experienced agency, can make selling your property faster, easier and less stressful, while helping you achieve the best possible price.

Selling a property can easily become a full-time job. Without experience in marketing, paperwork, legal requirements and negotiations, the process can quickly become overwhelming.

We take care of the entire process for you, so you can focus on what really matters: considering the offers we bring you and choosing the right one.

Another major advantage of working with a professional agency is greater exposure and stronger marketing for your property. We advertise across leading national property portals as well as numerous international platforms, helping your property reach a wider audience and achieve greater visibility.

Professional presentation also makes a difference. High-quality photography, floor plans, videos and virtual tours help your property stand out and attract the right buyers. And there’s another important benefit: we save you time. When selling privately, you may receive a large number of enquiries from agents, casual browsers or people who are not genuinely ready to buy. As real estate professionals, we can qualify potential buyers before arranging viewings, making the process much more efficient for you.

The result? A smoother selling experience, greater exposure and the best possible chance of achieving the right price for your property.

We divide the selling process into four steps:

  • STEP 1 — OFFER: When a potential buyer views your property and decides they would like to purchase it, the process begins with an offer. This may involve negotiating not only the price, but also other important aspects of the transaction, such as furniture, the timeframe for signing the deposit agreement and completing at the notary, and how certain costs will be handled. It may sound like a lot, but don’t worry — we’ll guide you through the entire process.
  • STEP 2 — DEPOSIT AGREEMENT (ARRAS OR PPC): Once the terms have been agreed, both parties sign a formal agreement setting out the conditions of the sale. At this stage, the buyer will typically pay 10% of the property price as a deposit, formalising their commitment to the purchase.
  • STEP 3 — NOTARY: Once the agreed timeframe has passed and the buyer has the necessary funds available — whether through their own funds or mortgage financing — the sale is completed by signing the public title deed before a notary. Although this stage can sometimes feel intimidating, it is usually the simplest part of the process.
  • STEP 4 — COMPLETION: Your property is officially sold! 🎉
