Jessie McCarthy of Martin Real Estate Costa del Sol transformed what we expected to be a daunting experience into an absolutely seamless and stress-free journey. As first-time property buyers in Spain who don't speak Spanish, we were initially overwhelmed by the prospect of purchasing on the Costa del Sol.
Our experience began when we found a property on Idealista.com and sent an inquiry. Jessie's response was immediate, and she arranged a viewing for the very next day. From that first meeting, her professionalism and genuine care were evident. Jessica listened attentively to our requirements and curated a perfect selection of properties that not only met our specifications but exceeded our expectations - all within our budget. Her deep knowledge of the market allowed her to show us some truly exquisite options we never would have discovered on our own.
What truly sets Jessie apart is her commitment to client care throughout the entire process. She literally "held our hands" from initial viewing to final completion, providing expert guidance with genuine warmth and competence. Her knowledge of the local market, combined with the company's highly efficient affiliate legal team, ensured a completely frictionless experience in all legal and bureaucratic matters.
Jessie's dedication, expertise and personal touch made all the difference in our successful property acquisition. We cannot recommend her and Martin Real Estate Costa del Sol highly enough to anyone considering a property purchase in this region of Spain.

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!

In the recent past we experienced the classic horror stories of buying property in Spain. Not with Jessie from Martin Real Estate. She is highly competent, dedicated to her job, keeps on smiling, never gives up and goes the whole way anticipating on what is going to be needed and when. She always keeps her promises and helps you with trivial things that are so complicated when you're not yet up to speaking terms in Spanish. If it were not for her immaculate support, we certainly would not have achieved our goal, buying the apartment we liked. No doubt that if I ever consider buying or selling another property in Spain, it will be with her assistance. Marc.

I think it would be impossible to find a better and/or more helpful real estate agent in the Costa Del Sol than Paul Martin of Martin Real Estate.

He has exceeded all our expectations from the initial viewing to completion of the purchase of our property, explaining the process clearly from the outset and helping us navigate every step of the way.

I would give ten stars if there was an option to do so.

Absolutely fantastic and I would be happy to talk to anyone to give more details and a personal reference if that would be helpful.

In the spring of 2022 we arranged to visit Paul Martin in order for him to assist us in finding a villa on the Costa del Sol. He was very efficient and friendly and helped us draw up a wish list and to prioritize our requirements. He drew up a list of suitable properties and arranged some house visits. On our first visit, we failed to find a suitable property, and we realized we needed to adjust our requirements or budget. We increased our budget, and Paul found us a long list of suitable properties while we were in the UK. He helped us narrow the selection and arranged for some property visits on our return to Spain. We found our dream villa on this second visit and purchased it. It became our house at the end of the summer of 2022. Paul guided us through the whole procedure and helped us speak to all the appropriate people. He conducted our negotiations and was very professional and efficient. Paul was very kind, warm and helpful, always honest, and never “pushy”. We would recommend his services to anyone looking to purchase a property on the Costa del Sol.

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.
