In June We saw this property in La Cala de Mijas for sale on Martin Real Estate site and it's everything we've been searching for. We contacted Paul from Martin Real Estate and he couldn't have been more helpful he explained everything to us how to pay the deposit and how to pay the balance of the purchase It was very reassuring to speak to someone who knew everything about buying property in Spain. Needless to say with Pauls help the purchase went ahead within four weeks.So now I'm writing this review in the sun in my garden looking forward to many more years of this. Thanks to Martin Real Estate

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. Stephen and Laima

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 highly recommend Paul, he is not your typical estate agent. He is reliable and trustworthy. His aftersales service is second to none. I can't speak more highly if him.

Highly recommend Martin Real Estate especially Jessie who just brought us through the whole process so smoothly. From that first phone call about what we’d like, Jessie matched us to the criteria superbly! Everything we asked for was achieved with a very small budget, but being realistic was important too. This property has fulfilled a long term dream. Jessie answered all our questions so promptly and went out of her way on many occasions to make it easy for us. Because this purchase was from abroad she put our minds instantly at ease and all along the process, recommending a solicitor too. We were able to close within a month, we still can’t believe its completed. We were so daunted and overwhelmed at the beginning now I know we didn’t have to be with Jessie’s wonderful help. Without Jessie I’m not sure we would have made the leap. “Thank you” Jessie you’re brilliant, kind and very understanding. So if you’re property hunting contact Jessie!

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!

We Bought our property through Paul around 5 Years ago. When we decided it was time to sell we contacted Paul to go through our options and the best way to move forward. I feel Paul has a wealth of Knowledge about properties in Spain and Paul gave us some great tips and recommendations. Paul and his team marketed our property and it was only a couple of weeks before we received a great offer that we accepted. Paul managed all the viewing's that we had as the property was empty due to us being back at home in the UK. I couldn't recommend Paul and his team enough for anyone purchasing or selling a property.

Paul is a force of nature and has been absolutely brilliant in helping us buy an apartment in Mijas Pueblo. He is action oriented, found us the apartment then quickly got access and did a video tour with enough detail for us to have the confidence to buy before actually seeing the property. He has spent a lot of time guiding us through the buying process including helping us to identify a great lawyer, a currency exchange provider and a trusted builder to carry out some renovations. Paul has quite simply gone above and beyond what I would expect from an estate agent. We trust Paul and highly recommend him if you are looking for a property on the Costa del Sol. Danny and Carole

Paul was amazing from the first time we contacted him. compared to other agents, he was very responsive and accommodating, thus we decided to have him represent us in our search for a Costa Del Sol property. We picked him before we even went there and he sent us many properties to consider. We had a very tight schedule and when we visited the area to view properties, he was able to get us into many different apartments in just 3 days. He explained to us (who live in the US) the different steps and processes needed to purchase a place in Costa Del Sol. He also introduced us to an excellent lawyer. Before we left, we found our dream property and Paul was incredibly helpful in the whole purchase process. He had a lot of great advice. We highly recommend his agency and we will definitely use him again if we buy or sell in the future. You will not go wrong choosing Martin Real Estate Costa del Sol!!!

I’ve just completed purchase of a property on Costa del Sol with the help and support of Paul from Martins Estate. From my initial inquiries nearly a year earlier Paul has kept in touch, providing number of properties that fit my criteria. When I was finally in a position to buy Paul again helped pick out a number of places that might suit, and visited them with me. In additional to ultimately finding an apartment that met exactly what I was looking for, Paul supported me throughout the entire purchase, guiding and answering all my questions promptly and clearly. In the end a seamless and very quick process. Id highly recommend Martins Estates to help navigate your way through buying a home or holiday place on the Costa. And thanks to Paul for finding my perfect getaway pad!

Paul was very helpful and friendly, responding quickly and accurately. It was the first time we bought property abroad and Paul did a great job as far as we are concerned. Would be happy to do business with him again” from Lauren and Abe who bought an apartment in Estepona

I cannot recommend Paul highly enough! We started working with Paul when we were buying our first property in Costa Del Sol, and quickly realized that instead of reaching out to different estate agents to organize viewings, we just told Paul what we wanted to see. He always set to work straight away, organized more property viewings for us than we initially requested, and gave us a comprehensive overview of the local market. His proactive approach helped us explore options we might have otherwise overlooked. What also impressed us was Paul's honest and straightforward advice. He never attempted to pressure us into making quick decisions, instead offering balanced insights about each property's pros and cons. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a professional and the hardest working estate agent in Costa Del Sol!
