Why renting in Spain breaks down for families like yours

No Spanish payslips yet? Most rent-default insurers won't cover you — so landlords quietly move on to the next applicant.

To get a yes, families are routinely asked for a bank guarantee or proof of funds covering 6–12 months of rent.

Pets can be refused outright, and families with young children are quietly passed over — so the homes that fit a family go fast.

And if the contract reserves that right, a private landlord can reclaim the home for close family after the first year — on two months' notice.

Questions before you contact us?

Why is it so hard to rent in Alicante as a foreign family?
Without a Spanish income record, many rent-default insurers won't cover you, so landlords ask for a bank guarantee or several months' rent up front. Pets are often refused and families with young children get passed over. Demand for good family homes is high, so the homes that work for a family don't last long.
How does the rent-to-buy part work?
You choose any home for sale. One of our investor partners buys it in cash and you move in, paying about 5% to start and a monthly amount. The purchase price is agreed up front, and over the coming years you have the option to buy it — no Spanish mortgage and no bank income check needed to move in.
Do I have to choose a property you pick?
No. We can send you a curated shortlist matched to your family, but you're also free to send us homes you found yourself — we pre-qualify them and check they work for the programme before you fall in love with one.
Is my 5% protected?
Yes. The arrangement is set out in a notarised option contract, so your option payment is protected and the purchase price is locked in from the start.
What does Relocation Concierge cost?
Start with a free consultation — we tell you honestly whether your case fits, and quote per case because scope varies. To move into your chosen home you put about 5% down. If you also want help with the rest of the move (NIE/TIE, bank, school and utilities), our guided Relocation Concierge starts from 2.990€.
Can you help with NIE, schools and the bank too?
Yes. Relocation Concierge covers the whole move: we prepare your NIE/TIE documents, introduce you to a bank (the bank opens the account), search schools for your children and set up utilities — one dedicated, multilingual manager coordinates it from the first call to the keys. You or your lawyer submit the official applications.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days to withdraw from the contract, as set out in our terms of sale. If you asked us to start straight away, you only pay for the part of the service already provided. Withdraw here.
