estate agents in spain rent a property in spain selling property in spain spanish property for sale a
Supposedly everyone that is selling their Spanish property is absolutely desperate to do so. They will all take offers……….silly offers of course, and they will open the doors to their properties in Spain day and night just to try and get rid of the things…….well, not exactly – there are still some vendors who actually opt to rent their Spanish property whilst still trying to market it for sale.
This is where things can get messy. Some owners who are trying to sell property in Spain, instead of leaving the property empty so that estate agents can get easy key access whenever they need to show it to a prospective buyer, actually prefer to rent the property to holidaymakers to benefit from the opportunities for the additional revenue.
During the time when the property is rented to tenants, it´s impossible to show it to buyers.
This is incredibly frustrating for estate agents in Spain, who ultimately have little control over when their clients may want to inspect the property, but have been striving to market it for weeks, if not months.
It´s completely understandable that sellers are looking for various ways of covering their costs, but my advice is to be very clear and provide plenty of notice to estate agents, so that they are not wasting time generating enthusiastic punters who will ultimately feel let down when they are told that your property is unavailable for viewings.
