Our support for your real estate purchase in Spain
Particularly strong expertise in the Marina Alta and the Costa Blanca North.
You can search on your own. But finding a property is only the beginning of the project.
Buying a property in Spain is now accessible to everyone thanks to the many real estate portals available online.
But between finding an ad and making a successful acquisition, there are many steps and decisions to make.
Which sector to choose? What criteria should be prioritised? Which property is really worth a visit? Is the price consistent? What elements should be checked? Should we negotiate and under what conditions? When to involve the various professionals?
This is precisely where Immo Consulting Brokers comes in.
We support buyers in their real estate project in Spain, from the definition of their search to the completion of their purchase.
Our role is not simply to present you with properties. It consists of providing you with a professional view on the buyer's side, knowledge of the local market and structured support throughout the project.
Why be accompanied?
You can search for your property yourself.
The question is therefore not whether you can buy on your own, but what additional support from a professional can bring you.
· Define your project and your criteria precisely;
· Identify the sectors that meet your expectations;
· Research and select relevant opportunities;
· take a step back from a property that you like;
· Identify areas that merit special verification;
· Accompany you during visits and negotiations;
· follow the different stages of the acquisition;
· Facilitate exchanges with the professionals involved in your project.
Our goal is not to show you the largest number of properties. It's to help you focus on those that are of real interest to your project.
Buying on your own, going through an agency or being accompanied by Immo Consulting Brokers?
THREE WAYS TO BUY IN SPAIN
But not the same level of support, nor the same interests.
Buy alone
Total freedom, but it's all up to you.- You search for the properties yourself.
- You contact the agencies and the owners.
- You organise and carry out the visits.
- You need to analyze the real value of the property.
- You will manage the legal, tax and administrative aspects.
- You negotiate alone.
- You assume the sole risk of your purchase.
You stay in control, but you have to manage everything.
Traditional agency
An agency that markets the properties it has in its portfolio.- You mainly discover the properties it offers.
- Your choice depends on their wallet.
- The advice is related to the marketing of the property.
- The agency represents the seller first and foremost.
- The negotiation is done in the context of the sale of the property.
- His interest is to close the transaction.
With I.C.B.
Support exclusively on the buyer's side.- We define your project, your criteria and your priorities.
- We search the entire market
- We analyse properties with an independent eye.
- We organize and carry out the tours with you.
- We help you evaluate the property and its fair price.
- We negotiate in your best interest.
- We coordinate the legal, tax and administrative aspects.
- We can advise you against a property when we believe that it does not correspond to your project.
The essential difference: a traditional real estate agency mainly markets the properties it offers to its clients.
ICB intervenes on the buyer's side and can intervene even before the property is found.
So you don't need to arrive with an ad that has already been identified.

Support that starts with your project
Before looking for a property, we first try to understand what you really want to buy and why.
In particular, we discuss the following:
· your budget;
· the location sought;
· the type of property;
· its use;
· your essential criteria;
· your secondary criteria;
· your constraints;
· your calendar.
This step allows you to transform a general search into a clearly defined real estate project.

1. Look for opportunities
We look for properties that are likely to meet your criteria.
Opportunities can come from different sources: partner agencies, professional network, local market or specific research related to your project.
Properties presented on our website
Some ads on our site come from partner agencies via computer gateways.
The presence of an advertisement on our site does not therefore mean that it has been previously analysed or validated by ICB.
If you are interested in a property, we can study it as part of your project and our support.

2. Select the relevant properties
Our goal is not to send you a succession of ads.
We seek to identify opportunities that are truly consistent with your project.
A property can be attractive on the Internet and yet have characteristics that make it less interesting when placed in context.
This is precisely where an outside perspective can come in handy.

3. Also know how to advise against a property
Our role is not to make you buy at all costs.
If a property has too many disadvantages, constraints or inconsistencies in relation to your project, we can recommend that you do not proceed.
Of course, you remain the sole decision-maker of your purchase.
Our role is to give you an independent look at the opportunity so that your decision is not based solely on the enthusiasm generated by a property.
Knowing how to look for the right good is important. Knowing how to ward off the bad good is just as important.

Have you already found a property?
You can also contact us after you have identified a property.
We can study with you whether the property corresponds to your project and whether a support mission is relevant.
This can be particularly useful when you have found a property that you like but want to benefit from an outside view before going any further.

Visits, analysis and negotiation
Visits
A visit should not only confirm that you like a property.
It should also make it possible to check its consistency with your criteria and to highlight the elements that deserve special attention.
Analysis
We help you take into account the available information about the property, its surroundings and its suitability for your project.
When specific checks are required, we refer you to the appropriate professional.
Negotiation
When a property corresponds to your project, we support you in the preparation and follow-up of the negotiation.
The objective is not to systematically negotiate to obtain the lowest price, but to look for conditions consistent with the property, its context and your project.

Support until the purchase is completed

When you have decided to proceed, the project enters a phase where the different stages must be properly coordinated.
Reservation, deposit contract (contrato de arras), verifications, financing, formalities and preparation of the signature: each step takes place at a specific time.

ICB ensures the follow-up of your project and facilitates exchanges with the various stakeholders
ICB and the lawyer: two different and complementary roles
ICB and the lawyer: two different and complementary roles
You can say to yourself: "I can find my property myself and then call a lawyer."
Yes, it is possible.
However, the role of ICB and that of the lawyer do not meet the same need.
ICB is mainly involved upstream
· the definition of the project;
· research;
· selection;
· Opportunity analysis;
· Visits;
· negotiation;
· Project monitoring.
The lawyer intervenes mainly when the project comes to fruition
The lawyer intervenes in his or her area of expertise, in particular for legal audits and the examination of documents and contractual commitments related to the acquisition.
It is not his role to search and select the properties corresponding to your project.
The two interventions can therefore be complementary.
The use of a lawyer is not always mandatory to make a real estate purchase in Spain.
It can nevertheless provide additional security to the buyer during the legal and contractual phase.

Local support in the Marina Alta
ICB operates mainly in the Marina Alta, especially around Dénia, Jávea, Moraira, Benissa, Calpe and in the surrounding municipalities.
This knowledge of the territory allows you to understand a real estate project beyond a simple advertisement: location, environment, characteristics of the different sectors and reality of the local market.
Our scope of intervention can be studied on a case-by-case basis according to your project and extended to other areas of the Costa Blanca.

Language and procedures in Spain
Buying in a country where you don't have a perfect command of the language can complicate exchanges with the various stakeholders.
Immo Consulting Brokers supports you in your discussions and helps you understand the information necessary for the smooth running of your project.
When the intervention of a specialized professional is necessary, we refer you to the competent professional.
· an architect;
· an expert;
· a building professional;
· a tax specialist;
· or any other specialist necessary for the project.
The fees of these external professionals are independent of the remuneration of Immo Consulting Brokers and remain the responsibility of the buyer.

Support that adapts to your situation
You can contact us at different times during your project.

If we feel that an opportunity has too many drawbacks or does not sufficiently fit your project, we may recommend that you do not proceed.
Support with a clear framework

During our first exchange, we will present you precisely how the support works and the conditions corresponding to your project.

We will be able to discuss your criteria, your budget and your expectations, and then determine if our support corresponds to your situation.
