About us

Thank you for your interest in our service for selling your Spanish property. We are a family run company and have been established in Spain since the beginning of 2002. During this time we have built up an in-depth knowledge of the Spanish property market including inland areas as well as the coast. From the start we covered a wide area as we wished to offer our buyers a greater choice than the typical local estate agent. We are proud to have built up a good reputation as an ethical agency who "goes that extra mile" to ensure a first class service for both buyer and seller. With the world economic crisis having had a dramatic negative effect on the Spanish property market since 2007 we responded at the time with the following Pro-active Marketing Plan for our vendors which has successfully increased enquiries, viewings and sales.

We offer all our vendors full estate agency services and advertise all their properties throughout Europe in different languages. We also offer vendors a choice of a low sales commission or a very low fixed fee so that their property can be offered at the lowest possible price with the best chance of attracting a buyer.

Greatly Increase the Chances of Selling Your Property with our 
Pro-active Marketing Programme


IF YOU WANT TO MOVE...YOU MUST MOVE WITH THE TIMES!


We offer you more chances to sell your Spanish property
Since the Spanish property bubble burst it is essential to have a high exposure for your property because there are fewer buyers in the market and no one is going to buy yours if they don’t know about it. It is also essential to offer your property at a realistic price to attract a buyer in the current economic climate. To achieve these two crucial goals you need to select an established estate agent who will advertise your Spanish property for sale internationally and in different languages for a low or zero sales commission/fee so that you can reduce your selling price accordingly. We at Hot Properties in Spain have been successfull by offering both these essential requirements for many years.

Because we are now in the internet age, buyers are researching and choosing their properties on their computer from the comfort of home instead of driving around looking in estate agents windows. Most buyers in the market now are coming from outside Spain so that is where your marketing effort should be concentrated.

However just being on the internet is not enough as there is so much information on the web on so many sites. To have the best chance of being seen your property details need to be listed on the first few pages of a Google or Yahoo search. Research shows that only a small percentage of buyers go beyond the first few pages. Our own web site is fully optimised so that it comes up on the first pages of Google & yahoo for all the popular search phrases for Spanish property. In addition we list our clients properties on other leading property web portals throughout Europe in different languages so we produce buyers from many countries.

We target the whole of Europe not just the UK
We advertise all our client’s properties in the main European languages and on up to 10 different top web portals which appear on the first pages of Google & Yahoo internet searches made by buyers throughout Europe. No other agency offers this level of exposure for your property at the low or zero sales commission/fee that we offer. (see the full list below of top property web sites we use)

We are pro-active
We are proactive and offer various marketing options including "Property Exchange" & "Try Before You Buy" schemes and now our new Vendors Private Sales Direct. The "Try Before You Buy" offers the vendor a minimum rental income of 6 months from a potential buyer who has the chance to "test drive" the property and location before committing to the purchase. The advantage for the vendor is that at the least it produces an income that will allow them to move in the short term and at best it offers an increased chance of a sale in a difficult market. For the buyer it makes the decision easier because they have the chance try out the property and the location and regain some of the rent if they go ahead and buy.        

 OUR PRO-ACTIVE ADVERTISING PLAN GIVES YOU MAXIMUM EXPOSURE

We create your own web pages to include many colour images and we translate into the main European languages and advertise globally. Our web site is fully optimised and appears on the first pages of Google/Yahoo searches for most of the popular Spanish property search terms. In addition your property will be listed on the following top professional brand named property web portals which between them appear on the first pages of the majority of Google & Yahoo searches for Spanish Properties.

SUMMARY OF THE COSTS & FEES

All our properties are advertised throughout Europe on a minimum of 10 of the leading international property web portals. In the current difficult property market to have the best chance of selling your property needs maximum exposure to the widest possible market.

In addition we translate your property details into the main European languages to attract buyers from other countries.  We send only details of your property for specific enquiries. Compare our service and you will find it is superior to all the rest.

Exclusive Agency Option
If you appoint us on an exclusive sole agency basis we reduce the sale commission to just 1.5% due on exchange of contracts.

Multi-Agency Option
If you wish to have other estate agents also to market your property the sales commission is 3%  due on the exchange of contracts.

Low Fixed Fee with NO Commission
With this option you still have the full estate agency service benefits and high exposure of the advertising on the 10 top European property web portals but with a low fixed fee and NO commission. The cost of this option is only €1000 in total which will enable you to offer the property at the lowest possible price. This will greatly increase the chances of selling your property in the current buyers market.

The fixed price of €1000 euros is paid in two installments of €160 and includes the registration fee. The first payment is due on registration and the second (€840) is due on exchange of contracts when the property is sold. Because we only collect the second half of the fee when we have sold your property we still have an incentive to work hard on your behalf. We think you should be wary of competitors who ask for full fees up front.

Vendors Private Sale Direct with No Commission (no accompanied viewings & all enquires direct)
This option is for those vendors who are in residence and wish to manage the sale themselves (and cut out agents commission) but who would like to advertise on our web site to attract buyers directly. We need up to 12 quality digital images sent by email together with full details of the property and the owners. The cost of this service is only the €60 euro registration.

Registration
If you would like to list your property with us we will need full details of your property including good quality photos and please state which option you prefer. Then we will then create your 10 web pages, translate into the different languages and upload to the different web portals. We do not charge any extra for this advertising which is expensive but produces the results. We charge a small registration fee of €60 per property which contributes to the extra costs of creating 10 web pages for this unique service.



OUR GUARANTEE
We guarantee to list your property with all the websites listed above within 10 days of receiving your completed registration.

We monitor the performance of the web portals and reserve the right to make changes to the list where appropriate with the object of improving the advertising exposure whenever possible.

When we find a buyer for your property we can provide you with a Sales Pack which includes a Private Sales and Purchase Contract, some advice on taxes, a list of independent solicitors if you require. We can also provide mortgage broker services for the buyer if required.

TO REGISTER YOUR PROPERTY

If you have any queries or require advice please telephone or email for a prompt reponse. You can send your property information by email or post to the address at the bottom of this page and we will contact you to confirm your requirements.
