Choosing a Property – The Buying Process

1. What are you looking for?

Consider the reasons behind your decision to buy an overseas property.

Decide on your preferred destination.

Write your Wish List: do you want to be near golf courses, overlooking the sea, within walking distance of a cosmopolitan centre with shops and entertainment or perhaps you would prefer the tranquillity of a pretty inland village.

Decide how much you want to spend. (Talk to an independent finance specialist before your departure.)

Wherever your destination, Zest only partners with overseas Associates who provide expert advice and offer the widest choice of properties. They will answer all your queries including the suitability of an area, how payments can be structured, the best way to finance your purchase, completion of paperwork, opening a bank account, provide an introduction to English speaking property lawyers, assist with furnishing packages and deliver excellent after sales support.

2. View online and order a brochure

Request a copy of our latest brochure which contains hundreds of properties for sale in Spain. There are thousands of properties to view on our website. Enter your criteria, request a search and browse the results.

3. View the properties for real!

They say the best way to learn a language is to visit the country…....the same is true when buying an overseas property! It’s essential you visit and view before making such an important decision. Have a good look around and get a feel for the area, the people and the lifestyle. Our Inspection Tours are an excellent and economical way of doing this. If you prefer to make your own travel arrangements, simply tell us when you are going and which days you would like to set aside for viewings.

Prior to your arrival, our Associates will prepare a portfolio of properties, tailored to suit your specific requirements. You can be assured of excellent, non intrusive personal service. Your Consultant will show you around the local areas including the beaches, restaurants, bars, golf courses, leisure facilities, etc.

Once you’ve found the perfect property, your Consultant will arrange for you to reserve it with a small deposit. Ask lots of questions – it’s better to get all the information before you return home!

You will be given the opportunity to meet with a lawyer, financial advisor, after sales team, furnishings department, etc. It’s entirely up to you but we do recommend you talk to the experts as soon as possible.
