I believe that the best way to go about searching for Spanish properties in the current market is as follows:
1. research the areas so that you have a specific location in mind, eg Marbella
2. browse the internet and speak to agents with properties advertised in your chosen area.
3. ask the agents how they work – do they have their own stock of properties and do they have access to any more?
4. ask them if they collaborate with other agents, and ask them if they work purely as ´property finders´ .
With the sheer volume of properties in Spain for sale, many prospective buyers are turning to Property Finders for guidance. Here is why:
Good property finders will have access to several thousand properties via their network of agents and the various multi-listing databases at their disposal. They will also have an intimate knowledge of your chosen location, and will be able to suggest plenty of options to help you.
Property finders work by talking to you at length to ascertain your buying criteria, and they will then approach other agents via their network to get hold of the most suitable stock – imagine Phil and Kirsty on Location Location Location!
This means that instead of only having a few hundred of the agent´s own properties to choose from, buyers can literally access the entire portfolio of available property in their chosen location.
The other huge benefit is that buyers only need one point of contact to co-ordinate viewings, so rather than having to liasie with several different agents, you can work ´with´ the property finder very closely to fine-tune the search and secure the best property.
Also, property finders have no allegiance to the vendors, so they are sure to try and secure the best possible deals for the buyer. Also, they are not tied by the handcuffs of representing both parties and so can give you their honest opinion of the Spanish properties that you are inspecting.
And if you think this property finding service attracts an up-front cost, you are wrong. Property finders simply take a cut of the commission that the listing agent earns from the vendor.
