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.

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.

We have our house with the support of Paul Martin. He is one of the very few real estate agents with added value and keeps an eye on the process so all parties are aligned. We recommend him to anyone buying a house in the Málaga province.

Bart and Sylvia, Purchased a home in Coín, Malaga

We were incredibly lucky to have found Paul from Martin’s Real Estate. I had randomly reached out after finding one of his property listings in idealista. He contacted my back within the hour and from the moment I shared our budget and requirements, Paul took care of absolutely everything. His advice, local insight, and professionalism were second to none.

I had booked a 4 day viewing trip for myself and my 6 year old daughter and let Paul know the dates and he kept in touch right up until the trip, providing valuable guidance and options to think about in advance. Pual ended up shortlisting more than 20 carefully chosen properties and lined up all of the viewings. It was a huge undertaking and very ambitious to squeeze so much into such a short trip but Paul was meticulous in his efficiency and organisation in lining everything up to make the most of the trip. He personally picked us up at our hotel bright and early each morning and we got to work, ensuring we found the perfect property. He went above and beyond, not just as an agent, but as a true guide and partner throughout the process.

Paul is exceptionally honest, trustworthy, and hardworking, with a phenomenal work ethic and genuine care for his clients. Thanks to him, the experience was not only smooth and stress-free but also highly enjoyable and memorable. My six year old cried all the way home as she didn't want to leave!

I couldn’t recommend him more highly, Paul is a rare find and an absolute superstar of a performer so if you're looking to find your perfect Costa Del Sol Holiday home or rental investment you won't find a better partner (or friend!) through the process!

Thank you Paul 😊

Liam Tighe, Sold his apartment in Calanova Golf, Mijas

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
