The six stages ## From first call *to completed sale.* You sign the purchase and you own the property throughout. We never handle payments to the seller or to the contractors: that money moves from your account, not ours. Where it starts ### \1. Plan and 2. Search Before any property is viewed You decide **City, capital, timeline** We do **Sourcing and analysis** Threshold **15% ROI minimum** We agree the market, the capital available, the target timeline and your risk profile. Only then do we start sourcing, through a network of local agents and contacts rather than the public portals. Most properties we analyse are rejected. ### \3. Negotiate and 4. Buy You sign, you own it Signed by **You, or your proxy** Registered to **Your name** We handle **Negotiation and checks** We negotiate and run the checks: land registry charges, community debts, planning and possession status. You sign at the notary, in person or by power of attorney, and the property is registered in your name. ### \5. Renovation Closed price, own contractors Managed by **Us** Priced **Closed before purchase** Paid to **Contractor, by you** We coordinate the renovation with our own local contractors, including licences, materials and deadlines. The cost per square metre is agreed before you buy, because that figure is what decides whether the project works at all. ### \6. Sale and aftercare Marketing and handover Includes **Photography, staging** Languages **ES / EN / FR** After sale **We handle issues** Professional photography, home staging and multilingual marketing. After the sale we handle issues raised by the new owner, so those calls do not reach you. The fee, in detail ## Two components, *both published.* Nothing here is negotiated case by case and nothing depends on the sale price. If the property sells for more than expected, our fee does not change. ### Fixed project fee: 4,990 EUR + VAT Covers the management of the whole project from start to finish, regardless of the outcome of the operation. ### Renovation fee: 10% of the budget Calculated on the renovation budget, with a minimum of 2,490 EUR + VAT. If you bring your own contractors, only the minimum applies. ### Paid in two halves 50% of both amounts on signing the contract, and the remaining 50% when marketing begins. The second payment does not depend on the property selling or on the price achieved. ### What is not included Purchase price, taxes, notary, registry, the renovation itself and selling costs. Those are paid by you, directly, and none of them pass through us. Frequently asked questions ## Fees and *how we work.* What exactly do you charge? A fixed fee of 4,990 EUR + VAT per project, plus 10% of the renovation budget with a minimum of 2,490 EUR + VAT. Both are paid in two equal instalments: half on signing the contract and half when marketing starts. Is there a success fee? No. We do not take a percentage of the capital gain. That is deliberate: a success fee gives the manager a reason to accept more risk than the investor wants. What if I use my own contractors? Then only the minimum of the variable component applies, rather than 10% of the renovation budget. Do you hold my money at any point? No. Payments to the seller and to the contractors leave your account directly. We are advisers and managers, not intermediaries in the transaction. What happens if you cannot find a property? The contract provides for a partial refund if we have not found a suitable property within eight months. The full terms are in the contract template, which you can download without giving us any data. What if the project loses money? The investment risk is yours, because you are the owner. That is exactly why the 15% minimum threshold before we validate a project matters, and why you should be sceptical of anyone promising a guaranteed return on property. Professional contract ## Read it *before you sign it.* Every investor gets the **same professional contract**: 25 clauses plus 3 annexes, turnkey renovation at a closed price, target sale value agreed in writing, partial refund if we do not find a property within 8 months, and mandatory mediation before any dispute. Downloadable in English, no form and no data required.
