Why pay more
than you have to?

Cutting out the middlemen has advantages for
both parties in the buying and selling of
property in Spain.

The BUYER gets better value by not having to pay the middleman and is free from sales pressure-being free to put in an offer and investigate all aspects of properties on offer without any outside sales pressure being exerted.

By buying at a realistic price, uninflated by agents' fees, it is reasonable to suppose that, should you wish to sell at sometime in the future, you would be able to do so at a profit.

The VENDOR is able to price his property realistically, and still get a price he is happy with, by not having to add on, the often astronomical, agents' fees, and is also free to negotiate with prospective buyers-something not always to an agent's liking because of its possible adverse effect on his fee. If the vendor wants to negotiate the selling price he may be faced with opposition from the agent and could end up the loser. Advertising costs involved in marketing the property privately are far, far less than the amounts charged by most real estate agents.

As properties have increased in value,
the value of the % involved in agents' fees has
naturally also increased, making properties
even more expensive to the buyer
and more difficult to sell.

 

This especially applies to resale properties where many home owners are experiencing problems in selling and are, unfortunatley, having to put their plans on hold. A PERSONALISED PROMOTIONAL PACKAGE can often resolve this problem.

There is nothing mystical about the buying and selling of property.It involves the introduction of two parties - one offering something which the other desires. This is brought about by advertising in some form or other, and what better way than on the internet and in particular STRICTLYNOAGENTS.COM.

Once accomplished, it is merely a question of two parties coming to an agreement and then getting the legal professionals to finalise the transaction in accordance with regulations in place at the time. As far as the buyer is concerned, buying through an agent whose fees are incorporated into the asking price, does not eliminate the need for the use of unbiased legal professionals.

(It is true that not everyone buying a property in Spain employs the use of a solicitor as it is possible to do all the conveyancing without, however it is not at all advisable and one should not let the sun go to one's head in such matters.) See " Buying Property in Spain" and " Moving to Spain".
