Selling My Property In Spain, What Is The Best Way?

So you want to sell your property in Spain and knowing it's a depressed market what is the
best way to sell your property? Do you list it with every Spanish real estate
agent on the planet, cherry pick a few key agents who you think might sell your
property or give it exclusively to one agent? Unfortunately the answer isn't
that simple and bit more complex as it will very much depend on your property
and own circumstances.

First things first its best to understand the market and what your options are.
Firstly you need to know the profile of the type of property buyer who is going
to buy your property. For example is your property for sale in Guadalmina in a
very Spanish area? If it is its more likely that a Spanish family is going to
buy your property and in this instance you should be listing your property with
the best local Spanish agents. Alternatively you may have an exclusive property
in an exclusive location and in this instance it's much more likely that an
International buyer will buy your property so here you will want the best
agents who can bring international buyers to your property.

Then you need to look at three different options at your disposal. The first would be to
list your property with as many agents as practically possible to get the most
amounts of viewings which make a lot of sense and the only downside is
remembering who you have listed your property with and controlling the
viewings. The second would be to cherry pick a few agents that you think could
best bring you property buyers with the downside to this being that you could
miss the out on an agent who could sell your property. However with 250 full
time agents alone in Costa del Sol it's quite hard to make the right decisions
but obviously if you Cherry Pick say six agents it's a lot easier to manager.
The third option is to pick an agent to give the property to on an exclusive
listing basis but one that offers a marketing facility and offers your property
to all the agents available. This agent would then manage all the listings and
also manage all the other listings. The two downsides to this is that it will
obviously cost you a little more to sell your property but the major drawback
is to know whether the company you use has the relationships with all the
agents to actually deliver on bringing you enough buyers so that you can find a
buyer for your property.

So as to what option is write for you this really depends on your own circumstances but
if you want your property sold as quickly as possible and don't have time to
wait then you are far more likely to sell you property using an exclusive agent
that markets to all the other agents as well as its own sales activities. You
then have to make sure you get the right one and to this end it's up to you to
do your homework and I would suggest you ask the agent how they intend to
market your property and what exposure it will get. For example what
advertising will they be doing, is there company easily found on the website
and how many clients do they have visiting a month directly and through other
agents. When you have this information it is much easier for you to make an
informed decision.
