MARGIN NOTES

What they ask before flying.

Do you charge the buyer fees?+

No. The seller pays the fees at closing, exactly as if the property were on a portal. Our support is free until signing.

Do you work with me if I live abroad?+

Yes — 78% of our buyers live outside Spain when they start searching. We work by video call, PDF dossier and viewings organized into a single trip.

Can you handle the Golden Visa?+

Yes. Our partner law firm handles the Golden Visa (minimum investment €500K). The process takes 6-8 weeks after closing. Note: the UK left the program after Brexit.

Do you also work with small apartments?+

Our usual entry point is €900K and up. For vacation investment or a pied-à-terre below that, we recommend specialist colleagues at no referral cost.

PHASE 01 — NO COST

Your atlas starts with a briefing.
