We design and build homes for clients who want to settle on the Costa Blanca and Balearic Islands: advice, architecture and construction in a single team to accompany you from the search for the land to the handover of the keys
Buying land and building a house can be overwhelming, especially if you’re unfamiliar with the local market. Hidden planning regulations, unbuildable plots, and complex bureaucracy are just some of the concerns any buyer might have. At our studio, we eliminate those risks and headaches.
Our team of architects has a specialized Real Estate department, headed by Marika Espinosa.
What does this mean for you? It means that while our real estate team searches for the perfect plot and handles all the legal checks, our architects analyze the land to ensure the project’s viability, design, and construction.
No unpleasant surprises
We conduct a thorough technical and legal inspection (Due Diligence) before you sign any contract or earnest money agreement. We protect you from hidden encumbrances and unsuitable rural land.
A single point of contact
Forget about acting as an intermediary between the real estate agent, the architect, the lawyer, and the builder. We manage the entire process from start to finish.
Clarity and transparency
We translate complex urban planning regulations and technical jargon into clear, direct answers in your language so you always have control of your investment.
