The Sales Process

VillaMia would love to sell your home and offers a full and free no obligation valuation service. It is important you know all costs involved so you can see if it is the right time to sell and we can help explain everything. Ideally, we would meet at the property to see it for ourselves and talk face-to-face and then put everything in writing for you.

If a price is agreed and you want to go ahead you sign a sales mandate giving us approval to list your property. You are free to list with other agents but if you want to list it with VillaMia exclusively for a period of time we will reduce the fees.

Once listed we send you the link for approval so all the details are accurate and you are free to make any amendments to the listing.

We will need some information from you such as your NIE and passport, the title deeds, the energy certificate if you have one, the habitation licence, utility bills and IBI / basura bill and an inventory list. We will also need a certificate for non fiscal or fiscal resident and non infraction certificate from the town hall. If it is in a community, also a certificate from the comunidad confirming fees are paid up to date. Don't worry we can help with this and don’t need it all straight away.

From June 1st, 2013, it's obligatory to present an Energy Certificate. Without the certificate you cannot complete the sale of your property. We are happy to refer you to collaborating architects. The price for the certificate is around 140 euros. The certificate has a validity of 10 years.

We are a member of The Association of International Property Professionals (AIPP) and use a number of different property portals to attract interest from buyers to our listed properties. During recent years agency collaboration has become increasingly important and the majority of sales are collaboration between two different agents - you do not pay more even if we are working with other agents. We will also erect a sales board at your property is agreed to attract passing buyers.
