Licensed & insured Real Estate Agents
AFTER launching the first legal, British family owned Real Estate Agents in Ciudad Quesada over 34 years ago, Inmobiliaria’s team have experienced first hand, all aspects of the Costa Blanca property market.
You would have seen their centre spread adverts in this newspaper, together with Rebecca’s weekly property articles, however allow us to reintroduce them to you.
From winning multiple awards for their outstanding customer service and care, to being recognised as the leading local Estate Agents dedicated to selling only resale homes, it’s easy to see why they continue to be the top selling resale agents in Ciudad Quesada and the surrounding urbanisations.
Buying and selling a property in the Costa Blanca is very different to that of the UK. Laws change quite rapidly. As a home seller, certificates you need now, were not required a few years ago. In mobiliaria’s team pride themselves on consistently being “in the know,” when it comes down to giving advice to both buyers and sellers alike. This stops sales falling through.
“Keeping uptodate with local and national laws in Spain is a feat in itself!”
Says Rebecca Serwotka, API Certified Real Estate Agent and coowner of Inmobiliaria. “Even as agents, things are constantly changing. The latest law for the Comunidad Valenciana is having to be a “licensed and insured” API agent in order to qualify to legally sell new builds and resales or even rent properties. Not just anyone can freely sell or rent here anymore. Including online based agents. This is a huge turn in the right direction for Spain, especially as this industry deals with millions of people’s hard earned money every day, that is simply irreplaceable.”
With this latest new law and in order to continue to serve their community, Inmobiliaria are one of only a handful of local agents that hold this professional title of ‘Agente de la Propiedad Inmobiliaria’ API for short. Recognised by the government of
Spain and more specifically, the Comunidad Valenciana, this registered API certification means they are not only licensed, but carry all required insurances too.
Not to be confused with AIPP (Association of International Property Professionals). The AIPP is based in the UK and bears no authorisation whatsoever on selling or renting properties on the Costa Blanca.
Buyers and sellers need the protection of an authorised API registered agent. They need to have the reassurance their money is safe and the guidance they are receiving from their agent has their fiduciary interests in mind.
Inmobiliaria has an incredible team of longstanding specialists that dedicate their expertise to the resale market only. With one main objective… to ALWAYS protect the needs of their buyers and sellers.
