Why use an Exclusive Buying Agent?

 

House Focus has seen the need for foreign buyers to be represented during their purchasing process and are the only real estate agents on the Costa del Sol who work exclusively for the buyer! Together with our lawyer, specialised in purchases of non-residents at the Costa del Sol, we provide the service to search and check the property, negotiate and arrange all legal matters around the purchase until completion at the notary. You will receive full lawyer attention plus personal purchase guidance in your own language, Spanish, Dutch, French and English.
During the whole process we will take the lead and guide you step by step. We focus 100% on you and make sure you buy that one property for the best price!
Our goal is to perfectly understand your purpose of buying the property and make sure we find that fantastic (holiday) home to enjoy your sunny life on the Costa del Sol.

House Focus is the only real estate agent on the Costa del Sol, who works exclusively for the buyer.

Be well prepared and informed when it comes to buying and owning property in Spain. We and our partners provide you with all necessary information to make your life in Spain stress-free. We help you through every step of the way.

First there are some things you need to know about buying property in Spain.

  1. The real estate market in Southern Spain is an open market, where you will find agencies on every corner, owners, friends etc. all trying to sell properties. Most of them don’t speak foreign languages.
    You should try it out, finding property on the internet.. It can be overwhelming and many come to us asking for help in this confusing property jungle.
  2. Real estate agents in Spain always get their commission from the property sellers side. That means that they work exclusively and only for the seller. Their only interest is to sell that property. So whenever they try to convince you that they work for you, it is not true!
    Now you probably ask yourself a very important question.. “Who is going to represent me as a buyer?”
  3. Holiday rentals in Spain need to be officially registered at the Junta de Andalucía and apply with their rules and regulations regarding letting a property for tourism purposes. If you are looking for a good rental investment of your property, it is very important that these requirements are already taken in consideration while searching for the perfect property
  4. Never buy property or pay any reservation fee before you have contacted a lawyer or professional to check the property and its documentation!

 

We try to keep things as simple as possible. Buying a house should be a positive experience!

As Holiday Rentals are our second speciality, we can check if the properties live up to the expectations of the Junta de Andalucía for official holiday letting.

About us

 

House Focus developed a different real estate concept for the Spanish market. Countries like the USA, United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Belgium and more are already familiar with this formula of buying property through an exclusive buying agent who acts on behalf of the buyer.

In Spain real estate agents always get their commission from the sellers side. This means that they work exclusively and only for the seller. Their only interest is to sell that property because the house owner will pay their commission.

So whenever they try to convince you that they work for you, it is not true!

House Focus works exclusively for the buyer, which makes us the only exclusive buying agent on the Costa del Sol.

We make sure you buy that one property for the best price! Our goal is to save you money and make sure that fantastic place on the sunny Costa del Sol will be yours.

We are happy to share our years of experience in the Spanish market. With our enthusiasm and dedication we love to help you to realise your Spanish dream. Because your house is our focus!
