Costa del Maresme

Barcelona’s northern coast, fantastic beaches, ‘liveable investment’ micro-areas. Good properties are rare. A quick, disciplined decision is always required. Price, condition, legal, and technical risks: we manage them comprehensively.

Costa Brava

Seasonal, with significant local variations. Not every street is a good investment. Permits, accessibility, noise, and neighborhood rental potential must be clarified in advance. We only proceed if the risk and price ‘align’.

Menorca

Scarcity of supply, many unique rules and local specificities. Quality and strong local knowledge matter more than the ‘WoW factor’. Due diligence + negotiation: for a smooth closing.

How We Work

We don’t promise miracles; instead, we offer a meticulously developed system. From the initial 15-minute call to closing, we remain firmly on the buyer’s side: initial screening, price and risk analysis, followed by legal and technical due diligence coordination. In negotiations, we don’t just focus on the price; we also plan deadlines, terms, and the ‘arras’ / deposit strategy.

What You Need to Know Before Buying

In Spain, it’s not enough to simply ‘agree and sign.’ Before paying an ‘arras’ (deposit), you must verify the property and its encumbrances, permits, community fees, technical condition, and realistic deadlines. Here, the buyer always pays the taxes and numerous additional costs, so the budget must be precise from the outset.

Early Identified Pitfalls

Sea-view home, but the paperwork doesn’t match reality. We: Registry + Cadastre checks, permit/planning review, offer with clear conditions and deadlines. Outcome: renegotiate or exit clean. Risk avoided: costly legalisation/fines.

Legal risk

Costa Del Maresme

Older house sold as “cosmetic only” — then surprises show up. We: technical visit, real budget + contingency, price negotiation tied to documented scope. Outcome: buy at the right price or walk away. Risk avoided: overruns + delays.

Renovation

Costa Del Maresme / Barcelona

Buying for holiday rentals, but community rules/local legal limits block it. We: bylaws + local rules check, 3 revenue scenarios, alternative plan (mid-term). Outcome: decision based on reality. Risk avoided: buying for an illegal model.

Holiday rent

Costa Del Maresme / Menorca

Rustic land in Menorca looks perfect, but development is heavily restricted. We: land classification + planning check, utilities/access reality, non-negotiables set early. Outcome: avoid a dead-end project.

Rustic land

Menorca

Pay a deposit today, someone else is ready.” We: document-first rule, deposit terms with refund triggers, milestone-based negotiation. Outcome: keep control without losing the deal. Risk avoided: losing the deposit due to bad clauses.

Deposit push

Menorca

International buyer gets hit by taxes and total costs late. We: full cost sheet (tax, notary, registry, fees), banking/legal path early, timeline. Outcome: no surprises. Risk avoided: last-minute deal collapse.

Costs & tax

Maresme/Menorca/Barcelona

Barcelona: a “loft” looks like a flat, but it’s a commercial unit or has no cédula de habitabilidad. We verify permitted use + registry, licences, and mortgageability; then renegotiate or exit. Risk avoided: no mortgage and hard resale.

No cédula

How We Work

5 Key Steps. Zero Ambiguity.

The Blueprint provides direction, and the Investment Brief clarifies the decision: BUY / RENEGOTIATE / EXIT.

We begin with a 15-minute screening call. If there's a fit, the Blueprint will be prepared, outlining: goals, actual budget, buy box, regional strategy, and deal rules. This enables you to quickly filter out irrelevant options and confidently pursue promising deals.

We assist with sourcing and initial screening. We request key documents, identify typical red flags, and provide a preliminary fair-value assessment. This results in fewer unnecessary viewings and a more refined shortlist.

Before making an offer, we plan the negotiation: price, terms, deadlines, furniture, and repairs. The arras / deposit and exit points are critical, as they determine your risk exposure. We 'engineer' the terms, rather than just haggling.

We coordinate the financial (loan), legal, and technical due diligence (lawyer, bank, technical expert). We compile the Investment Brief: Risk Register, fair value range, maximum price, negotiation requests — and a clear decision: BUY / RENEGOTIATE / EXIT.

We manage the schedule until closing: documents, notary, deadlines, and financing dependencies. After closing, we assist with setup (utilities, insurance, management). Monthly portfolio support is also available upon request.
