4 Steps to Sell Your Property
1. Initial Meeting and Property Assessment
The journey begins with an informative meeting where we:
- Review Essential Documentation: Ensure your property is debt-free, all taxes are paid, and there are no legal obstacles to a property transaction.
- Set a Competitive Selling Price: Our valuation service analyzes current market trends to establish a realistic and attractive sale price for the Spanish property market.
- Enhance Marketability: Offer suggestions on finishing touches like repainting or maintenance to increase your property’s appeal to international buyers.
- Non-Resident Sellers: We will guide non-resident sellers through the entire process, explaining key steps such as obtaining necessary documents, setting a competitive price, and navigating tax obligations like the 3% withholding tax (capital gains tax).
With these steps, we position your property for a successful sale in the competitive real estate market and prepare a smooth selling process.
2. Signing the Contract and Professional Photography
After the initial assessment, we proceed with:
- Real Estate Contract: Formalize our partnership by signing a contract that outlines our services and commitments provided by Sunny Casas real estate agency.
- Property Access Arrangements: If you’re not Spanish resident, do not reside at the property or have limited availability, you can entrust us with a key for showings.

With these measures, we ensure your property stands out from the very first glance to potential buyers.

- Scheduling Viewings: Arrange viewing tours or virtual tours at times that are convenient for you and prospective buyers.
