My Spanish dream came true thanks to Dan
I feel incredibly lucky that out of all the agents in this part of Spain, I came across Chaparral. From my very first conversation with the office, I was given honest, clear information about the property market, additional fees, and the whole process of buying in Spain. I was then introduced to my sales agent, Dan.
Dan called me and took the time to really understand our wants and needs. I sent him a list of properties I’d seen online, and he talked me through each area with such knowledge and confidence. Based on what I told him, he quickly pointed me toward the right locations and even recommended places that suited us far better than what I had originally found. I trusted him completely from the start.
I booked a flight, and Dan arranged a full schedule of viewings. As a woman travelling alone to meet an agent, I was a little nervous, but the moment I met him I was greeted with a huge smile and instantly felt at ease. The very first property he showed me was almost perfect, he had clearly listened but I realised it was a bit too small. No problem at all, Dan had plenty more lined up. That was December 2025.
By January 2026, my partner and I were back in Spain, and this time we were greeted like old friends. Dan found us the absolute perfect property, and we knew immediately it was our future home. We made an offer, and it was accepted.
Dan introduced us to an excellent solicitor, and the whole process was unbelievably smooth. Between Dan and the solicitor, everything was handled for us including helping us open a bank account. All we had to do was confirm details and sign our names. We returned to Spain for the notary visit, got our NIE numbers, and the sale went through without a single issue or moment of stress.
We weren’t even in the country for completion, but that wasn’t a problem Dan was there on our behalf and is now holding the keys for us.
I can honestly say that finding Chaparral was pure luck, and thanks to them, my Spanish dream has come true. Not only did we receive outstanding customer service, but I also feel we’ve gained a great friend. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and that’s exactly what you want when making such a big life decision: an agent you can trust.
Thank you Dan x
