I have worked in the real estate business in Marbella since 2001, so I experienced both Marbella’s big property boom 2003-2006 as well as the crisis that started in 2007. Later on I will tell some of my real estate memories from the past years but today I want to talk about the present 🙂
I am working at Nordica, a Swedish owned real estate agency based in Nueva Andalucia golf valley. I love my job. Apart from great colleagues, it gets me to meet many interesting people from all over the world. Every day is a new story so it never gets boring. Apart from the search for holiday homes, more and more foreigners come to find a permanent home here. I enjoy the process of getting to know my clients and guide them through their property search. It is a lot about understanding needs so I always ask many questions. Maybe too many haha! Once I understand needs, I can advise correctly and sometimes that actually means pointing out “negatives”. The challenge is not just to sell but the satisfaction of knowing my clients will be happy with their final choice and recommend me to their friends.
I love working for a company that specializes in a certain area and especially as I live here and find this the safest area for investments along the coast. (I base that on my previous experience from the years of real estate crisis on Costa del Sol and to some extent to my own personal opinion of course.) I am too honest to sell something I don’t think is a good buy…
For those of you who are interested in property in Marbella, below is a selection of my favourites at the moment!
Have a lovely day 🙂
