In June We saw this property in La Cala de Mijas for sale on Martin Real Estate site and it's everything we've been searching for. We contacted Paul from Martin Real Estate and he couldn't have been more helpful he explained everything to us how to pay the deposit and how to pay the balance of the purchase It was very reassuring to speak to someone who knew everything about buying property in Spain. Needless to say with Pauls help the purchase went ahead within four weeks.So now I'm writing this review in the sun in my garden looking forward to many more years of this. Thanks to Martin Real Estate

Noel and Joan O´Gorman, Bought a house in La Cala de Mijas

We're Americans who just bought a beautiful home in Mijas. We found it online via Paul Martin's site and he took us all the way through the process of purchase--home inspection, real estate lawyer, notary, etc. He was there throughout, attentive, jolly, and immensely helpful, keeping the whole process smooth and easy. We are deeply indebted to him and his agency for their help. What a terrific realtor!

Richard and Sally Price, Bought a villa in Mijas

Paul is the best estate agent on the coast! He sat us down, got our requirements, was responsive and engaging through the whole process, then found us our property and we moved in last year. Smooth and painless !

Russell and Magda Clarke, Purchased a home in Casares Playa

We have just completed on a lovely little apartment in Calahonda. This experience was made so easy with the help from Jess from Martins real estate. She really went above and beyond to make the whole thing go so smoothly and stress free. Jess recommended the solicitor who we used and she was also excellent. We bought and completed in 1 month with zero stress or worries. I had no idea how to go about buying a property abroad and I couldn’t have done it without Jess’s help. Highly recommend!

Joanne Pledger, Bouhgt and apartment in Calahonda

This is the 4th property bought by my wife and I in Spain and it was certainly the easiest to complete. Jessie McCarthy could not have been any more helpful or efficient. Quickly responding to our initial enquiry and fully qualifying our need's. Jessie soon supplied example properties for us to consider and even added a couple of “curve balls”. We arranged the viewings and Jessie showed us around the properties and giving some excellent opinions on them. We decided on an apartment in Casares and paid the deposit and signed the paperwork. Have recently collected the keys and we were kept fully informed every step of the process by Jessie. Best way I can describe the process is “seamless”. We cannot recommend Martin Real Estate and especially Jessie McCarthy highly enough if you are looking to acquire a property on the Costa del Sol.

Bryn Jones, Bought an apartment in Casares

Paul is a force of nature and has been absolutely brilliant in helping us buy an apartment in Mijas Pueblo. He is action oriented, found us the apartment then quickly got access and did a video tour with enough detail for us to have the confidence to buy before actually seeing the property. He has spent a lot of time guiding us through the buying process including helping us to identify a great lawyer, a currency exchange provider and a trusted builder to carry out some renovations. Paul has quite simply gone above and beyond what I would expect from an estate agent. We trust Paul and highly recommend him if you are looking for a property on the Costa del Sol.
