Jumping Over Hurdles

A new UK based Estate Agent makes buying your home in Spain easier.

(PRWEB) June 5, 2004 -- For a long time now many potential buyers of property in Spain have been put off by a number of key issues; the lack of transparency in house price comparisons, difficulty in getting an objective view of all properties (resale as well as new build) rather than those pushed by individual developers, getting up-to-date information about property availability, continually being subjected to the hard sell and working to agents schedule rather than their own.

All that is about to change -- Richard Loader of Bristol based Property4Spain.com says I have a number of friends who had a lot of problems buying their homes in Spain. We talked about all the hurdles they had to jump over and it gave us the idea for our business." He continues The key to our success is to remove the remoteness of the Spanish market through our use of the internet and to provide people with the tools to search, make appointments and buy at their own pace, in a completely transparent way."

People can set up their own client account, select properties they are interested in and set up proactive searches where they cant find exactly what they are looking for. When people are ready, we talk through their choices and make the logistical arrangements - they are met at the airport and our agents in Spain provide them with a one to one tour of their selected properties."

Property4Spain uses its network of Spanish agents and developers operating in North & South Costa Blanca, Costa Calida and Costa Almeria to create a pool of properties independent of any one supplier. Property profiles cover a range of interests whether buying as a family home, for investment purposes or as a holiday rental

Proactive messaging via email whenever properties match your criteria means that you can let Property4Spain conduct your search for you. Richard says It is easy for people to buy newly built properties off plan through one of the many developers but if they want to actually see the property, see the surrounding developments and have a need to move in a shorter timescale, then resale property is much harder to research and often involves visiting many agents in Spain. Our agents reckon that people make on average about 4 visits to Spain before they buy -- we aim to help people to a more thorough search objectively across agent portfolios before they visit."
