    You’re not alone. A recent survey found that 70% of international buyers feel unprepared when it comes to viewing properties in Spain.

    In this episode, Warner shares his expert insights to help you approach property viewings in Spain with confidence.

    Whether you're visiting homes in Costa del Sol for the first time or looking for investment opportunities, this episode will ensure you make the most of every viewing.

    What you’ll learn in this episode:

    • How to choose the perfect location for your lifestyle and goals (and why it’s the most important step).
    • The critical details to check during viewings, like dampness and plumbing, so you’re not caught off guard.
    • How to navigate legal checks to make sure your dream home is problem-free.
    • Why you should factor in resale value - even if it’s just for peace of mind.
