The Iberian Property Market: What You Need to Know
OUR PURPOSE
Mallorca's property market is one of the most sought-after in Europe, and navigating it is considerably more complex than most buyers expect. There are around 400 agents on the island. Almost all of them represent sellers. Listings represent a fraction of what is actually available. Prices are rarely transparent, and the planning, legal and structural complexity of buying or building here should not be underestimated.
We work exclusively on the buy side, holding no listings and representing no sellers. Because of that, we have built strong relationships with agents across the island who share opportunities with us that rarely reach the open market. Approximately 30% of the properties we have sourced for clients have not been available online.
We work solely for buyers. For most clients, that means working tirelessly to source and secure a property they will truly love. For those approaching Mallorca as an investment, it means identifying properties with genuine potential for return. In both cases, our clients want someone with real local knowledge and no conflicting interests in their corner throughout the process.
Let us do the work. Our fee is derived from the listing agent, or occasionally from a private seller or developer directly. In Spain, as in the US, the convention is that the seller covers the full agent fee, a model quite different from the UK, where buyers typically pay their advisor separately. Either way, our fee does not come from you.
We don't carry listings. We don't represent developers. We don't have inventory to push. Our only measure of success is yours.
