1. Save timeA good agency will make a preliminary selection based on your requirements and preferences. Without that, it may take weeks to visit different places and promotions, and time is money.

2. Area KnowledgeThe real estate agency can advise on the best area to buy and that always depending on your needs (proximity to services, hospitals, greater peace, public transport, etc.) With a good agency, you have the certainty to choose the appropriate area.

3. Increased securityAn expert real estate agent is aware of the legislation and knows personally all projects. He/she will avoid those developments who might have any problems either with paperwork or with poor quality of construction.

4. ExperienceA professional with years of experience can advise you on possible changes or improvements to make to your future home, give you ideas for decoration or lighting, and even gardening. Your agent can also get you in contact with people or companies who are responsible for the maintenance of your garden, swimming pool, cleaning, etc. Remember that he or she has advised many people before you.

5. CostTo work with an agency does not involve any extra cost for the client, since the developer or the property owner always pays the agent’s fees. Prices are the same whether buying through an agency or not, and the agent can always negotiate to your advantage because it sells to multiple buyers and therefore it is in a better position to negotiate.

6. Language barriersAlthough some builders might speak some English, in many cases is insufficient for fluid communication and it can generate misunderstandings. An agency with staff who speaks your language is essential to avoid problems.

7. After Sales ServiceA real estate agency will monitor for you the building process until completion and do the previous check-up before you receive the keys, making sure everything is in perfect condition, saving you time and unnecessary travel.
