The five factors that move a valuation, and why an accurate number matters more than a high one.
Any advisor can quote a price to win an instruction. Almost none of those quotes match the price the home eventually sells for. Here is how a genuinely useful Marbella valuation is built.
Comparable evidence
Recent transactions in the same community — not portal asking prices — are the anchor. We hold data on transactions many portals never see.
Condition and finish
The single biggest swing factor. Two identical apartments can transact 20–25% apart based purely on presentation.
Orientation and view
Southwest orientation, sea views and floor level materially affect price. Do not accept a valuation that ignores them.
Community and building
A well-run community with a healthy reserve fund is worth 5–10% on the price. A litigious community with pending derramas is worth much less.
Buyer pool
The right price is what a real buyer will pay today. We calibrate every valuation to the pool of clients we know are actively looking.
