‘Without Marja’s help, we might never have managed this.’

Our dream of moving to Spain stemmed from our love of the delicious food, the fine climate and the beautiful countryside. We travelled through different regions, looking for the perfect place to settle down. Ultimately, our choice fell on the Valencia region because of its beautiful city, coastal location, good accessibility from the Netherlands and more pleasant climate compared to the southern coast.

Via our estate agent in the Netherlands, we came into contact with Marja from Match Better Valencia. He was very enthusiastic about her service, so once we had selected some houses through Idealista, we contacted her to guide us through the further process.

From the first contact, working with Marja was pleasant and efficient. She immediately knew how to support us and took the right steps right away. After a telephone survey of our wishes, we went together for the viewings. It clicked immediately at the first meeting. We soon found our dream house and started the bidding process. Thanks to Marja’s advice, we also engaged a reliable abogado, which proved crucial during the purchase process.

Although we still faced some legal and construction challenges and even delays in connecting to the electricity grid, Marja helped us through everything. Her recommendation for a contractor also proved to be a hit; the renovations were carried out to our complete satisfaction.

Now, less than a year after the purchase, we are extremely happy with the steps we have taken. Without Marja’s guidance, advice and network, the process would have been much more complex. We highly recommend Match Better Valencia to anyone considering moving to Valencia.
