Paul was very helpful and friendly, responding quickly and accurately. It was the first time we bought property abroad and Paul did a great job as far as we are concerned. Would be happy to do business with him again” from Lauren and Abe who bought an apartment in Estepona

Lauren and Abe, Bought and Apartment in Estepona

Terrific guy / company. Highly recommended.
Paul Martin and his company helped us find a property around La Cala in late 2025 and we moved in very recently. Based very centrally in Calahonda, we gave Paul a very challenging brief - a 2 bed apartment with good outside space, having green / mountain views somewhere between Malaga and Puerto Banus with not many properties visible - all on a tight budget. Paul embraced this right from the off and gave us edited lists of properties to look at. With the feedback we gave him on them all, we were able to narrow down a very wide search area to something more manageable and then made 3 trips out to Spain over the months, as there's a limit to what you can do online. Throughout the lengthy period while we were looking, Paul was incredibly patient and helpful and even went above and beyond on a couple of occasions by doing video viewings of things just on the market. Once we had secured an apartment Paul even went to check just before completion that the vendor had left everything promised. All in all it was a great experience for us working with Paul, though he may hope for less picky clients in the future! We wish Paul success going forward and have no hesitation in giving him a top rating and recommending him to anyone trying to buy or sell on the Costa del Sol.

Andy Russell, Sold their apartment in Riviera del Sol

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

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.
