After more than 40 years of experience in the Altea real estate market, we are very knowledgeable about the area where we live and operate and we have a vast network of valued professional and institutional contacts. You don’t have to go with the lawyer or conveyancer your estate agent suggests, probably with much less experience than ours. In addition to the risk that the recommended lawyer will defend the agent’s interests rather than yours, they’ll most likely have some kind of commercial arrangement in place which could end up costing you more.

At ALTEAINVEST we do not charge per hour or for answering a telephone call, sending a message or writing an email. Neither do we charge for attending meetings away from our office, or for visiting Town Halls, Property Registries or other local public offices. And we will not charge you for dropping by our office in Altea, sitting down with us to tell us about your case and ask for an estimate of the services you require. Our fees are clearly determined before you hire our services. We are not driven by how long it takes but by the end results.
