¡ HOLA !
Searching for properties anywhere in the world
can be overwhelming and exhausting.
Spain has a way of surpassing the impact of
those impressions. It’s not an easy thing to
search for a property in Spain.
In the very epicentre of this gorgeous Mediterra-
nean investment paradise, every new apartment
looks more beautiful than the previous one. Each
property has more charm than the last.
Some properties are excellent investments, yet
others can be dreadfully over-priced. Compari-
sons can be difficult because of the multitude of
factors to consider.
You’ve heard the stories about watching out for
problems. Sellers sometimes have questionable
ownership. Debts can be linked to the property.
Land registry data can be insufficient. These are
problems that you are generally not confronted
with in your home country.
Spain holds a beautiful and alluring dream for
new property owners, but it is best not to try to
navigate these Mediterranean real estate waters
alone. There are many potential obstacles when
you are acquiring your dream property.
Sunny greetings,
Caroline Trahé & Dirk Jacobs

HOW TO BUY SAFELY
IN SPAIN ?
We make buying in Spain a safe, predictable and
even an enjoyable adventure!
Many Northern Europeans are nervous about
spending so much money so far from home, in
a different language, and under a different legal
system. There are stories about people who have
run into trouble with getting a home properly
built, signing contracts they didn’t understand,
and now there’s Brexit.
It can be difficult to know where to start. We at
Golf Estates & Z-Yachting are here to help you
with clear explanations and details of the buying
process, the costs and time frames.
This Real Estate Purchasing Guide will help you
see your dreams of home ownership in Spain
become a reality. With more sunshine, golf,
swimming, great healthcare, lower cost of living,
friendly people and the food and wine, it is not
hard to see why Spain is the most popular place
in Europe for relaxing, retiring, and vacationing.

THE LIFESTYLE
We see people coming from both extremes
when it comes to having decided what they
want in terms of lifestyle. Some come with a list
in hand, incredibly intricate details and pages of
research. Others come saying essentially that
they want to fall in love with a property, so they
don’t want to limit their options.
We believe in both
It may be that a property checks all the boxes,
yet just doesn’t move you. It is also possible to
fall in love with a property that is just not going
to work practically. Our job is to make sure you
have the best of both worlds. We will work with
you to find your dream home in Spain that ticks
the practical boxes, and that makes your heart
skip a beat.
Spain has a lot to offer. There are dozens and
dozens of properties to see at any given time.
By taking a few minutes to think through your
preferences we can make sure that your viewing
time is spent productively.
