Yes, I wrote myself a wish list/graph.

I put down all the important factors... No of beds/baths, Internet, wood fire, detached, etc etc.

Then I looked on the website for properties within our budget and ticked them off against my list until I had a list of 10 contenders. Then I made appts with the agents to see them all.

I kept an open mind on the location and we ended up somewhere we didn't even consider initially but we got everything on our list and more, so we are very happy.

Good luck with your search.

Trish

Sorry if this sounds stupid but did you have to pay agents who helped you buy? I read somewhere a person was asked for 4% from a buyer that can’t be right ,, can it ?

Hi,

We also used..

Sarahjane Filbee, Filbee Shaw Real Estate, Tel: 0034 868058750 

Skype: FilbeeShaw1, Email:info@filbeeshawrealestate.com

She was very helpful. Spoke to her from the UK. She set up viewings for me fo when I visited, including properties from another agent. She set up appointments for me to see an English speaking solicitor and to open a bank account.

During my 4 day visit I had placed power of atourney, got a solicitor, my NIE was sorted, opened a bank account, offered on an agreed a price on a 1 bed apartment in Puerto de Mazzaron and 4 weeks later completed the purchase.

Sarah did not charge any fees at all for the service.

Good Luck/
