BUYERS’ GUIDETO THE COSTA BLANCA

Page 2: Costa Blanca Buyers' Guide from Bravo Scotland

& WHAT WE DO...Our offices & showrooms in Torrevieja cover the Costa Blanca (south & north) and the Murcia region. All of our staff located within these offices are bi-lingual and have access to a vast selection of value for money, 100% legal new or resale properties that suit all budget ranges.

Our team is constantly listing a superb selection of homes all along the coast & inland – with updates occurring on a weekly basis. We ensure that the properties offer great value and we work alongside large and small local builders, private vendors & major Spanish Banks. One thing is constant throughout, the great value & locations we promote. If we think a property is overvalued or not up to acceptable standards, we do not list or offer it. It is as simple as that. In life you get what you pay for.

All our offices are manned by totally professional staff, fully knowledgeable in every aspect of viewing and purchasing a home in Spain. Our group of associates opened its first showroom in the U.K. in 1985 and since then over 10,000 clients have safely purchased through our group. It may be noted we have never had a single case of litigation (an enviable record) and we are proud of our reputation for clarity and honesty in all of our business dealings.

We are associated with a fully registered and accredited real estate agency with professional valuing and development services.

VIEWING ARRANGEMENTS

LOCAL APPOINTMENTS & PLANNED INSPECTION TRIPS

It is a well proven fact that the vast majority of people who visit Spain to look at a particular property end up buying something different than planned. The simple reason is that until you are physically standing on the terrace you have no real idea of size, location or the surrounding area.

Website information & brochures can be very different to real life!!

Our company puts great emphasis on ensuring that you have sufficient information on all our properties for sale so you have a good idea of what to expect before you go. Going to the Costa Blanca just to look at one or two properties is not really a sensible option. We try to ensure you see at least 8-10 suitable properties a day in the budget and the location that you prefer.

Because every property we have keys to is guaranteed 100% legal by ourselves before we even list it, this saves you a small fortune in time and legal searches. Spain now has extremely strict new rules appertaining to property legalities & clear title; this is for the better but unless you fully understand the law, let us take the pressure and strain away from you.You can view at your leisure a whole range of suitable properties all along the Costa Blanca coastline. You can be secure in the knowledge that you will not have the sleepless nights that so many who try to cut corners by doing it themself experience.

No pressure, no gimmicks just honest factual advice. The decision to reserve is entirely yours “if & only if” you find a suitable property. It is your choice. All that we do is ensure you view the best properties at the best prices.

Our advice for any clients entering into the reservation and buying process on the Costa Blanca has been the same since we started doing business in 1985, always do your financial homework & get your finances arranged before viewing. It is a pointless exercise spending time, money and effort viewing property if you subsequently cannot proceed with the reservation and purchase timescale.

BUYING PROCESS

WE OFFER LOW COST SPANISH MORTGAGES ON ALL EURO-PRESTIGE (STS)

PROPERTIES

With Bravo you know that every property you will view with our staff is: • Valued correctly• 100% legal • Fully authorized by all of the relevant Spanish authorities

This means that your time is used sensibly and efficiently, not constantly back-tracking to do legal property searches or to see if there is planning disputes, outstanding mortgages or debts on the property. Please, never take what many small un-registered local Agents or private vendors say at face value, always ensure you get the proven facts from professionals such as Bravo, this way you can buy in total safety

Expert Advice & Support

Page 7: Costa Blanca Buyers' Guide from Bravo Scotland

TRUSTED ADVICE

We can recommend several English Speaking local independent Solicitors to act on your behalf. The normal charge is about 1% of the purchase price.

When you find a suitable property that ticks all of the boxes in your budget and you wish to proceed further, then we will guide and advise you of the correct and legal way to proceed. With both new or re-sale homes the reservation process is similar, we draw up the basic reservation paperwork clearly showing the agreed buying price, taxes and running costs.

We inform the owner of your intention to proceed and a minimum deposit of 3,000€ or £3,000 is needed to secure the reservation and remove the property from the market. Deposits can be made by Bank Draft, by debit or credit card or by bank transfer but must be received in Spain before the Solicitor can draw up any contract.

Solicitors are strictly governed by Spanish Law to act in your best interest at all times and will ensure a totally trouble free purchase to get your deeds.

THE REST IS UP TO YOU! ... CONTACT US ANYTIME

There is only one safe way to reserve and purchase any property in Spain and that is to go and view what is on offer. Take professional advice on checking its true value and legalities, see if it ticks all the right boxes on budget and location. Then it is your own decision, if you like it - buy it, if not – don’t. It really is that simple.

We inform all clients who are in a financial position to buy or who are able to raise the required funding that the prices for good quality, prime location property have certainly bottomed out now. In some cases noticeable rises are being seen, especially in frontline beach and golf properties. As very little new property has been built over the last 4 years, desirable built properties that are worth the money get snapped up quickly by savvy buyers from all over Europe and beyond.

Spain is constantly in demand and it will always be the first choice for British buyers.
