No agency in anywhere on the coast lists English yet. Try a neighbouring town, or choose English.
These agencies mention English or have a website in English, but don't say that someone in this office speaks it.
Where's my agent? lists 974 established estate agencies in 14 towns from Sotogrande to Torremolinos. All details comes from the agency's own information and Google. We never take payment to change what an agency's profile says.
Most agencies on the coast share their listings through common property databases, so many of them can show you the same homes. That makes the agent more important than the agency's own listings. Look for someone who knows the area you want, speaks your language and answers quickly.
Buying or selling a home is easier in your own language. Right now 65 agencies say their team speaks Swedish (38 of them name the person), 103 speak German, 70 Dutch, 130 French, 65 Russian, 27 Norwegian and 22 Finnish.
We only say an agency speaks a language when a named team member speaks it, or the office says so itself. When a language is only mentioned for a whole chain, or the website is merely translated, we show it separately so you know to ask when you call.
Spain has an official professional title for estate agents, API (Agente de la Propiedad Inmobiliaria), and several professional associations such as GIPE, AIPP, CEPI and RICS. Members follow a code of conduct, and many have access to training and liability insurance through their association.
Membership is voluntary, and only 68 of the agencies listed here show one on their website: 28 API, 24 GIPE and 13 AIPP, among others. You can see it in the search results as, for example, "API member" next to the agency's experience. Click the badge on the agency's card or profile for a short explanation of what it means. Agencies with a membership are ranked a little higher under "Best match".
Experience: half of the agencies listed here have worked on the coast for at least 20 years. Ask how long the agent has worked in your area, not just how old the company is.
Registration and insurance: Andalusia's new housing law (Ley 5/2025) creates a compulsory register for estate agents, but the Junta de Andalucía has until January 2028 to set it up. Until then, ask whether the agent holds the official API title or belongs to a professional association, and whether the agency has professional liability insurance.
Fees: the seller usually pays the agent's commission on the Costa del Sol, typically 3–7% of the price plus 21% VAT. Agree the fee and what it covers in writing before you start.
Independent advice: an agent helps you find and negotiate the home, but a lawyer of your own should check the title, debts and planning status before you pay a deposit.
Financing: if you need a mortgage, read how mortgages work in Spain before you make an offer. Non-residents usually borrow at most 60–70% of the price, so check what you can borrow early.
Usually the seller. The commission is normally built into the asking price, so buyers pay no separate agent fee unless they hire their own buyer's agent.
The main cost is the property transfer tax (ITP), 7% of the price for most resale homes in 2026. Lower rates apply in some cases, for example 6% for a main home up to €150,000. On top of that come notary, land registry and lawyer fees.
Not yet in practice. The Andalusian housing law that came into force in January 2026 requires agents to register, with training and insurance requirements, but the register is not open yet. Many agents already hold the API title or belong to a professional association.
Yes. You don't need to sign up, and it's completely free to use. If something about an agency is wrong, use the report link on its profile.
