Buying a house is always exciting. Buying a house in Spain is even more exciting. Laws, language, culture, speed: everything is just a little different than what you are used to. Fortunately, you don’t have to do it alone. An English-speaking buying agent will guide you in your own language, with knowledge of the Spanish market.
Below you can read why this is a smart move and how we at Dream Properties can help you with this.
1. A certified estate agent is professional and accountable
A certified buying agent is a qualified professional who must have proven experience, competence and the appropriate certifications. In addition, they have legal liability insurance and an insurance or bank guarantee to cover deposits. That’s a comforting thought when making a purchase of this scale, especially in Spain!
2. The buying agent is on your side
A buying agent wants to help you as a buyer. For the team at Dream Properties, nothing is more rewarding than having a happy customer who has found their dream home. This means that they will work hard for you to make you that happy client, or: un cliente feliz.
3. Staying focused during your house hunt
For a buying agent, there is no emotion involved in purchasing a house. We remain professional and ask the right questions: does this really suit your wishes, budget and future plans? We also protect you from pitfalls that you might fall into because you are guided by your enthusiasm.
4. Knowledge of the Spanish real estate market
We already mentioned it: things are slightly different in Spain and, what’s more, the property market is constantly changing. As a buying agent in Spain, we know this from our daily business. We can provide you with immediate information if you have any questions.
5. Save time and energy
You don’t have to figure everything out yourself. We explain the process clearly, provide the right documents and act quickly once you have found your dream home. Because in Spain, there is no exclusivity on properties, which means: first come, first served.
6. Knowing what steps to take when buying a house in Spain
Buying a house in Spain requires clear guidance. The great thing about having a buying agent is that every step you need to take is explained to you. The team at Dream Properties helps you from A to Z, so you know exactly what to do.
7. A real estate agent in Spain who speaks English
Buying a house in Spain naturally involves a different language, there’s no getting around that. With an English-speaking buying agent in Spain, you don’t have to worry about that. We speak English and Spanish (and even more other languages). We take care of all communication, which means that nothing gets lost in translation.
8. Access to a reliable network
With more than 10 years of experience, we have built a solid network in Valencia, Costa Blanca and Andalusia, among other places. These include experienced lawyers, financial advisors and construction companies who know how things work in Spain. We actively switch between these parties during the purchase process, so that you have as little as possible to arrange and will enjoy maximum peace of mind.
9. Guidance at no additional cost
In most regions, our fees are paid by the selling party. So you usually pay nothing extra for full purchase assistance. In the province of Valencia this works differently: there it is customary that the buyer pays a commission (feel free to ask us for details).
10. We have done it ourselves
What makes it extra fun for both you, and for our English-speaking-speaking team in Spain, is that we have all been in the same position. We have all realized our Spanish dream, so we know that tension. That makes it even easier to put ourselves in your situation and to make your journey as smooth and carefree as possible.
