Your trusted partner in property sales
Selling a property in Spain can be a rewarding experience, but knowing where to start can make all the difference.
For homeowners on the Costa del Sol, the process involves more than simply deciding on an asking price and putting a property on the market. From valuation and presentation to viewings, legal requirements, taxes and the eventual transfer of funds, there are several important factors to consider.
If you're thinking about selling your home on the Costa del Sol, obtaining a professional valuation is a useful first step.
Understanding your property's current market value, the likely selling costs and how it should be marketed can help you make an informed decision before committing to a sale.
Sol Simple Properties offers free, no-obligation property valuations throughout the Costa del Sol.

Getting the Right Valuation
One of the first and most important steps is establishing a realistic market value.
Setting the asking price too high can result in a property sitting on the market for longer, while pricing too low could mean missing out on its true market potential. A professional valuation should consider recent comparable properties, location, size, condition, views, outdoor space, facilities and current buyer demand.
This is particularly important on the Costa del Sol, where values can vary significantly between neighbouring areas.
At Sol Simple Properties, sellers can arrange a free, no-obligation property valuation based on local market knowledge and more than 25 years of experience in the Costa del Sol property sector.
Reaching the Right Buyers
The Costa del Sol property market attracts buyers from many different countries, each with different requirements and budgets.
Effective marketing therefore needs to reach more than just one agency's existing database.
Sol Simple Properties combines its own property marketing with an extensive network of trusted collaborating estate agencies. This allows a property to be promoted to a much wider pool of potential buyers across the Costa del Sol.
For sellers, this means greater exposure while still having a dedicated point of contact managing the process.
Presentation Matters
First impressions are particularly important when marketing a property to international buyers.
Professional photography, attractive presentation and well-written property details can make a significant difference to the number of potential buyers who take an interest in a property.
My aim is to capture the unique character of your property. With a sharp eye for real estate presentation, I can ensure your property captures attention and leaves a lasting impression.
A Dedicated Sales Manager
Selling a property can become particularly complicated when the owner lives outside Spain or is unable to deal with viewings and enquiries personally.
As a dedicated sales manager, Sol Simple Properties can act as a single point of contact for the seller, managing enquiries, coordinating viewings and helping to keep the sales process moving.
From the initial valuation and property presentation through to marketing and viewings, the aim is to make selling your Costa del Sol property as straightforward and stress-free as possible.
Understanding the Costs of Selling in Spain
Before putting your property on the market, it is important to understand the potential costs associated with selling.
Depending on your individual circumstances, these may include taxes such as Capital Gains Tax and municipal Plusvalía, together with legal, administrative and agency costs.
The situation can be different for Spanish residents and non-residents, so sellers should obtain appropriate professional advice based on their personal circumstances.
Currency exchange can also be an important consideration for international property owners. When the proceeds of a Spanish property sale are being transferred to another currency, exchange-rate movements and banking fees can have a significant effect on the final amount received, we can recommend a currency exchange specialist that will ensure the best rates and lowest fees.
Why Local Experience Matters
The Costa del Sol is not one single property market. Prices, buyer demand and property types can vary considerably between different areas.
Sol Simple Properties specialises in the highly desirable coastal area between Mijas Costa and Marbella, including La Cala de Mijas, Calahonda, Riviera del Sol, Miraflores, Cabopino, Elviria, Marbella, Los Monteros, Puerto Banús, the Golden Mile and Nueva Andalucía.
This local knowledge can be particularly valuable when establishing a realistic market value and identifying the type of buyer most likely to be interested in a particular property.
A More Personal Approach to Selling
Sol Simple Properties was established around a simple idea: property transactions should be straightforward, transparent and personal.
As an independent, certified GIPE / MMCEPI real estate consultant, Robin Adams has more than 25 years of experience in Costa del Sol property. His career has included working for a Spanish property developer and later as a Sales Manager for an established estate agency, before creating an independent service focused on providing clients with more personalised advice and support.
Rather than taking on a large number of clients, Sol Simple Properties deliberately works with a select number of buyers and sellers. This allows greater attention to be given to each property and each individual client's circumstances.
Multilingual Support
Multilingual Support
Buying or selling property in Spain often involves communicating with a variety of professionals and support services. As a fluent English and Spanish speaker, I can communicate effectively with international buyers and sellers, as well as local solicitors, banks, notaries, developers, and service providers. This helps ensure a smoother process, minimises misunderstandings, and gives you confidence that everything is being handled efficiently.
