    Buying property in Marbella

    A confident purchase, from start to finish

    Buying a home on the Costa del Sol should feel exciting, not daunting. Our role is to make the process transparent and straightforward — guiding you through every legal, financial, and practical step along the way.

    With more than thirty years of local experience and a trusted network of lawyers, notaries, and advisors, we help buyers from around the world secure their place in Marbella with total peace of mind.

    The buying process

    01

    Define your search

    We start by understanding your lifestyle, budget, and goals — whether it's a holiday home, permanent residence, or investment — and shortlist properties that truly fit.

    02

    Viewings & due diligence

    We arrange curated viewings and carry out thorough checks on each property, from legal status and licences to community fees and future development plans.

    03

    Offer & reservation

    Once you've found the right home, we negotiate on your behalf and secure it with a reservation contract, typically taking the property off the market.

    04

    Legal & completion

    Working alongside your independent lawyer, we guide you through the private purchase contract, NIE number, and final signing at the notary.
