Hi Dave
We have literally just bought a property in Manilva and used Marbella Dream Living. They were recommended to us. Clive the owner has been in business over in Costa Del Sol for 30 plus years. I dealt with an amazing lady called Shanin. She was great. Originally from the UK ...

...she has lived there for about 18 years and was so helpful. Even responsed to my e-mails at 9pm in the evenings. We gave her our particular brief and she came back with some really good suggestions all within our budget. Her e-mail is [email protected]
Was shown around the properties by a great guy called Jamie who even took us to furniture stores to give us an idea of what is available and prices.
Am sure you have realised how frustrating it is to buy in Spain as all the agents pretty much have access to all the properties and so leave properties that have sold on the website to get your details. So many times we saw "our perfect property" only to realise it had been sold months earlier. You have to be pro-active and trawl through Rightmove, I sent Shanin property links from website to give her an idea of what I was looking for and to see if things were still available.
Good luck
Sandra
Most of the agents on the coast belong to this agency https://www.resales-online.com/en/ they claim 2,898 real estate agents using our platform. (So most of the agents are not really the actual selling agent) It can be an ordeal finding the correct property, unlike UK with Rightmove UK where you can see the location, here you can waste time going to see a property and the second you get there know it's not what you want. The pure oversupply makes makes property hard to value & most overpriced, people also should note you need to add about 10% for extra costs and taxes to the price.
