Have you ever bought or sold a home? Difficult, right?

Now try doing so in another country.

Nowadays people from all over Europe are looking for their place in the sun. Spain is one of the most popular destinations, and within Spain the Costa Brava - known and loved by millions of tourists, many of whom have sighed, “If I only could live here permanently!” - is at the top of the list.

We’re partial to the Costa Brava ourselves.

Having done it more than once, we figured there’s no need to keep reinventing the proverbial wheel. The result is this directory of Costa Brava real estate companies.

If you are thinking of buying or renting a house, villa, apartment, or any other real estate property in Spain, you will need help.

There are a thousand-and-one things to think of — and even if you are an experienced property buyer at home, you’ll find that things are done a little different in Spain.
