Brief Guide to Selling your property in Fuerteventura

It's not quite as simple as just getting a valuation, generating some publicity and showing people around the property.

• Decide how you are going to sell your house. Are you going to use an estate agent or try to sell it privately or even at auction. This is actually quite a major decision and one which in the long run may have a large influence on the speed you sell your property and how much the whole sale process ends up costing you. Keep in mind that a reputable estate agent such as Montaña Roja has the advantage of experience in the property market and can help guide you through the whole process.
• Sit down and work out how much it is all going to cost. This may not seem too important, especially if you know you are getting a large profit from the sale, but the chances are you are going to have all sorts of relocation costs to cope with and don't forget the purchase costs associated with buying your new home. Start doing your sums now so you will be prepared if any nasty surprises arise.
• The final area of preparation involves your home. Take some time to do a few things to your home to make it that little bit more attractive to a buyer such as fixing broken doors, freshening up paint work etc.
• When the prospective buyer has shown an interest - it is time to negotiate. Make sure you know how much you are prepared to accept for your home and just how much of your home that money should include.
• Once you have agreed the sale with a buyer, your solicitor should be able to handle the rest.
• The last stage of the process is the completion. This is when the sale is complete and you no longer own the property. If you try to stay in your old home after completion, you will eventually be removed by the strong arm of the law.
