Selling and buying over and over

Incredibly friendly and professional agents who really follow up their clients in the best possible way. We have both bought and sold property via Start Group and give them a warm recommendation. Jennifer in particular is recommended and she delivers at its best.

We could not find ourselves in better hands!

We chose StartGroup as our estate agent for the recent sale of our apartment and purchase of a new apartment, both in Calahonda. One of StartGroup’s directors, Pascal, was our estate agent 20 years earlier for our first apartment. As we were so impressed with him then, we naturally chose StartGroup. This proved to be a wise decision as StartGroup managed our recent sale and purchase so very well. Startgroup’s Leon was assigned to our project (assisted by Cecilia). We could not find ourselves in better hands. Leon’s enthusiasm, empathy and professionalism were outstanding. We were most impressed that it was always our own interests/concerns that he prioritised. Meeting up with him was always a pleasure. StartGroup is not a small-scale agency and thus they were able to offer us a degree of flexibility and trust that perhaps a smaller firm might not. No sale/purchase will ever go perfectly to plan, but Leon and StartGroup were always by our side to smooth the way. Indeed, StartGroup was with us from Start to Finish………. Patrick & Josephine Kenny

Professional help with our property sale in Calahonda Golf

We decided to sell our apartment in Calahonda in November 2021 and visited Startgroup's offices in Calahonda. We quickly got the impression that the company had in-depth knowledge of the area. They knew exactly where my apartment was and what price it should be marketed at. The day after a photographer came to our place, and only a few days after that, the sales details were published with very presentable pictures and videos in addition to professional and explanatory text. After having traveled back to Norway, we immediately received messages informing us that there had been several viewings. We got an offer on the apartment only a few days after that! The process was then closely followed up by Startgroup. |As with any property sale there can be several issued to be esolved. When there was a need for clarification or speed in the process, Startgroup helped with all their combined knowledge from the team. We got the feeling they were there for US. In the agreement between the parties, we agreed on the takeover no later than 15 February, but already on the 28 Januaryeverything was in place. Startgroup is definitely a company you can trust. They are genuinely committed to doing the best they can for their clients and we highly recommend them. Helge K. Sæbø and Tania Vande Sæbø

With us from the Start right through to the Finish

We have just completed the sale of our house in Spain and recommend START GROUP to anyone thinking of doing the same. From the first visit they were friendly, professional, efficient and always available to provide answers or give advice. It made what can be a difficult process stress free and as their promotional material says they really were with us from the Start right through to the Finish. Phil Mathews

We bought a bank repossesion in Riviera del Sol from StartGroup.

We bought a bank repossesion in Riviera del Sol from StartGroup. After being on summer holiday on the Costa del Sol for 3 consecutive years, we decided to go ahead with the purchase of own home in Spain. During the Autumn of 2014 we spent countless hours in front of the computer online, looking for that perfect vacation home. We decided on some criteria that were important to us in our new home and made a list. For example, price/budget, location, size, view, swimming pool, etc. Due to the vast amount of properties on offer from sellers and real estate agents a like, we became quite confused. Fortunately, we received a recommendation from acquaintances in Norway, that we should contact Christofer Fogelberg at StartGroup. We were told that he was a serious, competent and reliable real estate agent. We contacted him via email and got an immediate response. He received our list of criteria and lists we had made with potential relevant properties. He came back to us with feedback with regards to our lists and in addition, he came with additional realistic and possible options. We agreed on a date for viewings right before Christmas. Christofer gave us a very warm welcome and had planned the house viewings very carefully, so that we could get a look at all of the homes during one day. It turned out that many of the ads we had seen online in advance, were quite different when seen in reality. With help from StartGroup and a recommendation from Christofer, we are today happy owners of a holiday home. The acquisition was not particularly easy, as the property was a bank repossession. We wish to thank Christopher for his patience and good help throughout the entire purchase process. We felt right from the start that we were confident in him and felt safe and cared for throughout the entire purchase process. He possesses a lot of knowledge and history of the region and we would give our highest recommendations to anyone who is in the same situation as we were. Finally, we would also like to thank the rest of the gang at StartGroup for good assistance. Kind regards, Gro and Gerardo, Norway

Confidence in recommending the Start Group to others

We’re just back from a week’s holiday in the Calahonda area and you might recall this trip was primarily to take a look at the area so we could compare it to the Costa Blanca. While we didn’t intend to look at properties, we happened to walk past the Start Group offices while shopping and decided to go in for a chat. We met with Jennifer Fogelberg who was extremely helpful and she suggested we might like to take a look at a number of properties while we were in Spain. While Jennifer knew we were not yet ready to purchase a property, she still offered us the opportunity to view a selection of properties. This has given us a much clearer view of the type of properties we can consider against our budget and we have now been able to narrow down our search to one area in the Costa del Sol. Your recommendation has allowed us to establish a relationship with the Start Group and I wanted to let you have some feedback so you have a confidence in recommending the Start Group to others. Once again, thanks so much for your help. Kind regards Mrs J. Cox
