AS IF IT WAS OUR OWN HOME...
BoCasa is also the right choice for selling your property at the Costa Blanca.
After the appraisal of your property, we make sure that all necessary documents are present or applied for, we arrange excellent images to promote your property and present your property in a comprehensive way through various channels.
Our cooperation with reliable fellow agents expands our reach even further. After finding a buyer, we naturally assist you also to ensure a correct legal and fiscal settlement.
TAXATION
BoCasa has extensive knowledge and experience in the Costa Blanca North real estate market. After visiting your property, we propose a realistic and attractive sales price. We take several factors into account, besides things like location, size, quality and characteristics of the property, the current market trends as well as supply and demand also determine a realistic price.
Identifying the right sales price is crucial to the successful sale of your home. BoCasa will help you find the right balance between an attractive market price and a good return on your property.
CONTRACT
As a seller, you have a choice between 2 types of contracts: exclusive or non-exclusive. With non-exclusive contracts, you engage multiple real estate agents, something that is not common in other countries. It may seem that by doing this you are increasing your reach but the opposite is often the case. With an exclusive contract you confide in us to arrange the sale for you. On top of the usual attention for a property, we than go the extra mile in terms of images, marketing and exposure and at the same time also share your property with our network of collaborating agents. In addition, you as seller only have to share your keys with one party and we guarantee that there will always be a trusted member of the BoCasa team present during a viewing, so there will be no strangers unaccompanied in your valuable home.
We are happy to elaborate in person on the above mentioned differences.
IMAGES
In order to promote the property we believe that quality pictures are of utmost importance. We provide attractive photos, videos and floor plans. Depending on your wishes, the property type and location of the property, we can also provide drone footage.
MARKETING
Marketing your property is a crucial part of the sales process and is the key to reaching as many interested buyers as possible. We do not charge additional fees for our marketing efforts. The only cost you as the seller pay to us is the pre-agreed commission on the final actually realized sales price.
Our website www.bocasa.nl has a large number of visitors from a variety of countries looking for a property at the Costa Blanca. In addition, we publish our properties on several internet portals (e.g. Idealista), publish the property regularly on Facebook & Instagram and share the property with a network of trusted colleagues.
All this to maximize our mutual exposure and achieve a great and quick sale.
DOCUMENTATION
It is very important to make sure that the formal documentation of a property is in place before it is put on the market.
This will ensure that the sales process will be smoother, more efficient and will improve the chances of success in finding a buyer. Furthermore it reduces the likelihood that a sale will ultimately be called off. Below are the documents needed to sell a property:
- Escritura: This is the notarized title deed that confirms the ownership of the property and its description
- Nota Simple: This is a document provided by the property registry confirming that the seller is the rightful owner of the property and stating whether or not there are any outstanding debts
- Certificado de Eficiencia Energetica (CEE): This is a document that confirms the energy efficiency of the home and is mandatory when selling a home
- Cedula de Habitabilidad (Certificate of habitability): This is an official document indicating that a property meets the requirements of the local government
- Water and Energy: A copy of the latest bills for water and electricity
- IBI: Proof of payment of the property tax - IBI (Impuesto sobre Bienes muebles)
- NIE & passport: A copy of your Spanish identification number (NIE) and passport
TAXES AND SELLING EXPENSES
We always recommend to use a legal representative (attorney or ‘gestor’) for both the sale and the purchase of a home. This person can also assist you to understand the specific details of the taxes, calculate the costs and make sure that the right steps are taken for a proper settlement. We can put you in touch with several multilingual lawyers in the area (including English speaking ones) with extensive experience in real estate transactions at the Costa Blanca.
POWER OF ATTORNEY
If you are incapable or unable to be present at the signing of the necessary formalities, we can help you obtain a notarized Power of Attorney so that someone else (often your lawyer) can sign on your behalf.
