FAQS

1. DO I NEED TO SPEAK SPANISH?

It is beneficial to have basic Spanish to start with. However, the process of starting your new business could take from 3-6 months, which gives you ample time to get some basic language skills in place. By doing this, you will be more confident when running your business once you get going. Employing a local Spanish person initially has a lot of advantages, as they will know the environment and local knowledge to accelerate your presence in the community.

2. HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL YOU NEED TO RUN THE BUSINESS?

Our business model can be run very effectively with only two people. We recommend finding an English/Spanish team member within your area or community, to enable you to start building strong relationships.
• The Franchisor Administrator will deal with sales contracts on your behalf and will refer any information needed from the franchisor directly to our Training & Standards Manager.
• A salesperson
• A property-lister

3. DO I NEED TO BUY A HOME IN SPAIN TO RUN MY BUSINESS?

Not really, because the rental cost of a family sized 3-bedroom apartment can be as little as 450 Euros per month. This option gives you time to adjust to your new life, and the opportunity to explore your choices for accommodation whilst running your own real estate business.

4. WHERE CAN I HAVE MY FRANCHISE?

Andalucía Spain This autonomous region lies in the south of Spain, and its coasts are bathed by both the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Its beauty is due to it being a land of contrasts: it’s home to hills, rivers, lakes and farmland as well as history and culture. Andalucía is composed of eight provinces, stretching from the south-east to the south-west of the country. Each one is named after its capital city: Cadiz, Cordoba, Jaen, Huelva, Almeria, Malaga, Granada and Seville. We specialise in inland properties along the region. Ask to see our Territory map with details of the 59 territories, with population and property numbers.

5. WILL I NEED TO LIVE IN SPAIN TO RUN MY FRANCHISE?

6. DO I NEED PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE IN REAL ESTATE?
