Please click on a question to view the answer:
 |
Do
you have a wide selection of properties? |
 |
From our wide selection
of residential and commercial properties we
are sure you will find a property to suit
your every need. Our entire staff are purchasers
of property in Spain. They are therefore fully
able to relate to your requirements having
been thorough the entire process themselves.
Their experience and wealth of local knowledge
gained over the last 20 years is testimony
worth noting. Be it a small holiday home,
a luxury 5 bedroomed villa for retirement
or a thriving commercial site - we will be
able to help. |
|
Can
you find me a site? |
|
We have an excellent
plot finding service having worked in this
sector since the 1970's. We have reputable
contacts to assist in all aspects of site
finding and design of small developments,
individual villas or commercial ventures. |
|
Can
you advise on investment opportunities? |
|
Both commercial and
residential properties offer good prospects
in most areas of Spain. As communications
networks improve, many analysts see 'The Costas'
as a sound investment area. By following a
few simples steps we are able to assist on
all purchasing aspects. |
|
Will
we need a solicitor? |
|
We recommend all
of our clients liaise with our network of
solicitors. With offices based in Spain as
well as at home, our legal team is available
to answer any questions that arise before,
during and after the purchase. |
|
Are
there taxes to be paid? |
|
Yes. All properly
purchases are subject to tax. Our staff can
explain the costs depending on the type of
property purchased and will organise future
fiscal management. |
|
How
can we visit the area? |
|
Our staff are trained
to serve our clients - not to sell to them.
Our objective is to assist clients who are
looking to purchase property in Spain, and
not use any form of coercion. To this end
we can offer four, five or seven day visits
to the area depending on client's individual
needs. We will book flights, airport transfers
and accommodation. When in Spain our clients
will see the full selection of property available
and all meals and refreshments are supplied
whilst visiting the area. Some of our clients
wish to arrange their own travel and accommodation
and may contact us prior to arrival to arrange
a morning appointment to view property. We
will operate at our clients pace. |
|
What's
the next step? |
|
A viewing appointment
can be made simply by contacting our offices.
We know that our job is not over when a client
decides to purchase - rather this is when
it begins. |
|
Are
the properties for permanent use or holiday
purposes? |
|
Both. However, more
and more clients are purchasing for permanent
residence, if not now, they are at least buying
for the future. We will be pleased to advise
and show you the properties and the area most
suitable for your needs. In a warm climate
for example, you spend much more time outdoors,
so you will utilize the balconies more and
indeed may find that a smaller property fits
the bill. Our top priority is to help you
make a decision with which you will be happy
for years to come and one which you can comfortably
afford. Stage payments can be structured to
suit your own financial circumstances, especially
if your home is still on the market and you
find a property you wish to purchase. |
|
Can
clients take an inspection trip when they
are not ready to buy? |
|
Despite the fact
that there is no obligation to buy, you can
imagine that we do occasionally get people
who try to use our inspection trips for a
cheap holiday or to see the area with no intention
of purchasing at all. Our inspection trips
are designed to cater for the serious property
buyers only, with the emphasis on viewing
the area and properties intensively and discussing
the legal and administrative side of your
purchase. If you are not genuinely interested
in buying a property the trip would be arduous,
boring and a waste of your time and ours.
If you wish to explore the area at your leisure,
we strongly recommend that you take a holiday
there first. Our staff can advise you on suitable
holiday arrangements. |
|
What
will we see? |
|
During your visit
to Spain you will be shown the very best selection
of properties, because we are totally independent
and not tied to the products of any particular
developer. We will also show you the full
range of facilities that you will be able
to enjoy in your area of interest. These will
include the best beaches, marinas, shops,
supermarkets, social clubs and much, much
more. If you want to visit one of the may
restaurants or play a round of golf - no problem.
Basically we want you to get a feel for the
area so that your decision is made easier. |
|
What
if we don't like any of the properties in
the area? |
|
Don't worry, we guarantee
that you will be under no pressure whatsoever
at any time. Several of our non-buyers have
subsequently recommended friends because of
our professional approach and the total lack
of pressure. We let the areas and the properties
do the talking and then the choice is yours. |
|
What
finance can be arranged? |
|
You will find an
inspection trip potentially a waste of time
and a very frustrating experience if you do
not have your finances arranged first. Mortgages
from various sources can be arranged. |
|
After
sales services - what can we expect? |
|
The finest! With
our years of experience we can assure you
of one of the best aftersales organisations
in Spain. |
