...t a bit of a feel for the companies - some will reply quickly but with a sales pitch rather than actually answering your questions, other will just try and get you to make an appointment without answering anything, but one or two will communicate properly as well as suggest meeting up.  Meet the ones you feel confident with using from that email and then make your choice, and stick with them regardless of who the estate agent wants you to use.  You will be communicating with them by email mainly once you return to the UK so you need to know they will reply to your questions.  The only reason to use a different firm would be in the unlikely event that vendor is also with that company, which, although happens in Spain, is in my opinion a conflict of interest so change to your second choice.  Your lawyer must be working independently for you alone.

Hi, we brought our property over 3 years ago with Girisol and they were so helpful and couldn't do enough for us. I would recommend them.

We used Casas Manuel for our purchase Sept. 2018 great service from Dave, he even went to the house with the keys the day we moved in, checked all utilities were working  including water heater, hob and oven .

Brilliant after service, used Fontanals Abogados also excellent service. We used them to arrange residencia and our tax returns....

Managed to change our driving licences through a translator through a friend. 

There are plenty of very good agents and Abogados around, but a few bad ones as everywhere.

Where we lived in the UK we knew the good and bad agents and solicitors because we lived there a long time, but when you buy abroad you don't have that experience to  rely on  and unfortunately a small number of common use that to their advantage !
