This month, we tell you the wonderful story of Adriaan, a Dutch investor looking for an old property to fully renovate for a quick resale.

With little time to travel and make multiple visits before finding his ideal property, and speaking very little Spanish, he quickly realized he would need expert help on site to successfully complete his mission.

That’s how he contacted our agency EasyHome, specialized in assisting foreigners wishing to invest in Spain. From the very first meeting, our team understood his expectations: a very old apartment, ‘in its original state,’ ideally located in downtown Alicante, close to the seafront and near Alicante-Elche International Airport and the train station serving major Spanish cities, including Madrid.

Thanks to our expertise and knowledge of the local market, our EasyHome team quickly presented him with a selection of properties matching his criteria and budget. After a few virtual tours and a short stay in Spain to finalize his choice, Adriaan chose his dream apartment in the Maisonnave neighborhood, checking all the boxes of his target search.

EasyHome’s turnkey support included property searches and validation that it was free of any debt or legal proceedings, the process of obtaining his Foreigner Identification Number (NIE), an essential prerequisite for all procedures, support with our partner notary, followed by a complete renovation and a custom home automation installation, to make his home fully smart (connected locks and remote access control, connected roller shutters and awnings, outdoor sensors designed to only trigger air conditioning above a certain outdoor set temperature, multimedia in each room, and remotely controlled lights, allowing for presence simulation when absent).

Thanks to EasyHome, Adriaan’s project came to fruition with simplicity and peace of mind thanks to the trusting relationship that quickly developed between us.
