Good morning all

We have a 3 bedroomed bungalow on La Marina.  We will be travelling to Spain at the end of the month to have our property valued and hopefully put on the market.

Does anyone have any helpful hints for selling a property, and is there anything we should be especially careful of?

Thank you

Barbara

You will also need a certificate of habitation, unless you have one already that’s still in date.

Hi Barbara,

Don't use Zafira - utterly useless.

However, I would thoroughly recommend Newstart Estates, just around the corner in Avenida de Londres.  My husband used them to sell his parents' property about 18 months ago and they were excellent.  Zafira had it listed for months and he didn't know if they ever did any viewings there - Newstart sold it in 3 weeks and he was kept informed throughout the process.

Good luck!

Kind regards,

Kim

Excellent advice from RayD. Can 100% recommend Target Spanish Properties, ask for Flávio, definitely get quotes. We brought our house through Target and everything was done to the letter. No trying to circumvent anything. The person we brought our house from was delighted with their serv
