IHomes abroad also called Bolig-udland.dk (in Danish) they are the biggest Danish Real Estate Agency in Spain with 7 offices around Spain. They collaborate with many good agents all over Spain along with having their own regional agents and their own portfolio of properties for sale all over Spain.
I met with Tine the representative for Homes Abroad in this area. We had a lovely chat and despite her having lived and worked in the Competa area since 2012 we had never properly chatted before and she really is very lovely! I can imagine her being exceptionally good with her clients. Tines experience of living, working and moving to the area allows her to be in a great position to provide invaluable advice and knowledge to her clients.
In 2007 Tine bought a town house from Country Properties in Competa. She was adamant when searching for a home she wasn’t going further from the coast than the village of Sayalonga. The agent suggested Competa and reluctantly she agreed to view a townhouse. First they went for a drink in the Plaza. Whilst sitting in the sun and soaking up the atmosphere of the village, she knew this was the place for her and went on to buy a villa. This is something Tine does herself with clients who are often reluctant to come up to Competa. She takes them to the plaza for a drink in the sun to understand why some many fall in love with the area and most feel the same as she did she explains.
Life took a change for her over the following years after buying the townhouse; she split from her then husband and fell in love with her next door neighbour in Competa who she married recently in Denmark! In between she moved to Spain permanently and found employment at Country Properties Estate Agency. Tine was extremely happy working for this real Estate Agency for many years. Last year she decided it was time to step away from the company and focus more on herself. Country Properties had always collaborated with Homes Abroad and on finding out Tine, their contact had left, Christian the owner approached her and suggested she was their personal representative in the area.
Tine explained the Homes Abroad structure and website is exceptionally professional, there is buying advice that can be downloaded and is an informative website in general. They represent both the buyer and the seller and will provide help before, during and after the sale. Homes Abroad are extremely proactive with promoting properties on Facebook and attending Fairs. Homes Abroad have recently got back from attending a fair in Finland. Over the course of the year they will be attending a further 22 fairs all over Denmark and Finland. They are aiming for the UK, Norwegian and Swedish Fairs in the future.
Finding a home is an important decision and Tine explained she prides herself on listening, researching and finding the right property for the right person. Having worked in the industry for 7 years she has built up a huge network of contacts and satisfied clients many of whom have become friends over the years. If you are looking to buy a home you need to have confidence in your agent’s knowledge and ability and above all like them and Tine has all these attributes in bucket loads!
