Property Sales & Purchase

From start to finish, from finding the right places, arranging for you to see them though to providing all the other services you might need, as shown below, we'll be there every step of the way.

Property Search

We’ll supply you with the best that is on offer locally, and search for your ideal home if we don’t have the precise specification you want.

Design, Planning & Construction

If you are considering a new property on one of the many excellent developments, we can arrange for expert local advice on the design choices available, and the optional extras that you may require.

Restoration and Renovation

textIf you elect to buy a plot, and need local builders, perhaps with the project managed on your behalf together with site supervision, we can assist. This is a fairly popular option, and although it can seem a daunting task, we can find sites and set up the project with local parties – perhaps the best value and exciting route to take, if not the quickest here

Mortgages

text We can get you some expert advice in this complicated field – there can be many advantages to having a local mortgage.here

Currency Broker

We can arrange help with moving currency. We advise strongly that you use a currency broker, which will save you a lot of money through obtaining good exchange rates, low charges and commission, as well as giving advice on the best way to manage the funds transfer. You can save £1000 on this aspect of the transaction by arranging in advance at a specified rate through a good broker.

Legal Advice & Conveyancing

Arranging legal representatives – a local lawyer will probably be the most effective way of handling the transaction. There are also some legalities requiring your representative to attend, and we can arrange all the legal documentation formalities.

Property Management & Caretaking

If a property is a second home, it can be a worry when left empty and the owners are away. In 1988 we set up our first caretaking service, which is now comprehensively tailored to the property involved. We can regularly inspect, deal with relevant bills such as the utilities, open and air the house, and deal with any maintenance that may need doing. Checking and clearing gutters, tiles, looking after plants and so on can all be arranged.

Letting

Whether it’s to friends or on a financial basis, we can organise a welcoming service. This can include transport from the airport, and introducing the visitors to the house and gardens, and how everything works. This would include, of course, making sure everything is ready for the next set of guests. Everything would be found clean, linen ready, with a welcoming pack in the kitchen. Laundry, cleaning and closing down your home after departure would be taken care of.

Insurance

As a new property owner we would advise you arrange private building and contents insurance for your property. We can arrange this on your behalf to coincide with the completion date. We have arrangements with the well-established insurance businesses locally that offer good value for money, and we can help you find the cover you require at a reasonable price. This covers health as well as property insurance. Let us know if you require details.
