A small, capable network of vetted buyers — and a coordinated, multilingual marketing approach. We don't mass-list your home. We sell it.
You've decided to sell — let's get the valuation right, photograph the property properly, and put it in front of qualified buyers. We aim to be live within 14 days of the valuation visit.
Book a valuation →Maybe a year out. Maybe two. We'll come and walk the property anyway, give you an honest current value, and tell you what (if anything) is worth doing before you list. No pressure to commit.
Get an opinion →Selling on the Costa del Sol works when the pricing is honest, the marketing reaches buyers in their own language, and the right people show up at viewings. Here's the scope.
A pricing letter with three reference comparables, the local market rhythm right now, and a recommended asking price — with a range, not a single number.
Wide-angle interior shots, drone where needed, dawn or dusk hero — commissioned by Glaser and included in the seller service, no separate fee. Same photos carry over to rental management if you go that route too.
Listing copy written by a native speaker of your buyer's language — not run through a translation tool. Distributed for maximum exposure: the Costa del Sol broker network, national and international property portals, and our own direct buyer pipeline.
Every viewing is hosted in person by a Glaser team member — we never hand keys to outside brokers. We pre-qualify each visit, show the property ourselves, and answer the buyer's questions on the spot.
Direct line to every offering party's agent. You see every counter, every reason, every comparable behind the number. No theatre.
Coordination from the reservation contract through to the escritura (the title deed signed at a notary). We sit beside you for every signing, in your language, with the right people in the room.
When a non-resident sells a property on the Costa del Sol, the buyer withholds 3% of the price at the notary and pays it to the Spanish tax office. The seller then declares the real gain within about four months and pays 19% capital gains tax on it, the same rate for EU and non-EU sellers. If the 3% was more than the tax due, the difference is refunded.
The buyer keeps back 3% of the price and pays it to the Agencia Tributaria with Modelo 211 within one month of the deed (escritura).
You declare the actual gain. The deadline is three months after the one-month window for the 211. The 3% already paid is credited.
Gain is the sale price minus the purchase price, purchase costs (transfer tax or VAT, notary, registry, lawyer), documented improvements and the costs of selling. Ordinary maintenance does not count.
If the 3% exceeds the tax due, the excess is refunded; the tax office has six months from your filing before late-payment interest applies.
Your home country may tax the same sale too. Have your own tax adviser look at that side; we coordinate the Spanish side with a lawyer.
We check the set before the first viewing, so a buyer’s lawyer never finds a gap late in the process.
“Maarten gives honest and realistic evaluations and feedback. He was very helpful in organising some additional cosmetic works we wanted to do prior to putting it on the market. The resulting images and presentation of the house was wonderful. We got immediate interest and received a full asking price offer very soon after.”
Our selling service is fully inclusive. Professional photography, multilingual marketing copy, distribution to the agency-portal network, viewings management, negotiation and lawyer coordination — all part of the seller service, no separate fees.
Our selling fee is paid only on a successful close, agreed in writing before we list. No retainer, no monthly subscription, no marketing levy. The valuation visit itself is free.
Every municipality has its own buyers, urbanisations and plusvalía ordinance. Start with the local picture.
Once a buyer is on the table, closing typically takes 30 to 60 days. Time from listing to offer varies by area, price band and condition, so we share an honest range at the valuation visit rather than a promise.
Nothing. The first valuation visit on the Costa del Sol is free and done in person at the property. We charge nothing up front and a fee only on a successful sale.
A non-resident seller pays 19% Spanish capital gains tax on the actual gain, whether they live inside or outside the EU. At the notary the buyer withholds 3% of the price and pays it to the tax office as a payment on account; the seller then files Modelo 210 and either pays the difference or reclaims the excess.
When the seller is not tax resident in Spain, the buyer must withhold 3% of the purchase price and pay it to the Agencia Tributaria with Modelo 211 within one month of the deed. The seller receives 97% at the notary. The 3% is credited against the final capital gains tax filed on Modelo 210.
No. Many owners sell from abroad by giving a Spanish lawyer a power of attorney (poder notarial), signed at a notary in their home country with an apostille or at a Spanish consulate. We host the viewings and keep you updated after each one.
The title deed (escritura), a recent land registry extract (nota simple), an energy performance certificate (mandatory to advertise), the latest IBI receipt, a certificate from the community that fees are paid, the occupancy licence or equivalent, and your NIE and passport. We check the set before the first viewing.
Yes. Most Costa del Sol property is sold under a non-exclusive arrangement. We explain the trade-off between exclusive and shared listings at the valuation visit so you can decide.
Tell us a little about the property. A senior member of the Glaser team will reply within 24 hours to arrange a 30-minute valuation visit at the property — we always assess in person. If you're abroad, we coordinate access with whoever holds the key and walk you through the written report by video afterwards.
A senior member of our team replies within 24h — never a sales rep.
No sales rep, no junior agent. 30 minutes on the phone is enough to know whether we're the right fit.
