Dutch Real Estate Agent in Rojales – Casas Palmeras Real Estate
Are you looking for a Dutch real estate agent in Rojales who can provide you with personalized guidance when buying or selling a home in Spain? Casas Palmeras Real Estate is located in Rojales, on the Costa Blanca, and assists Dutch and Belgian clients in their search for a home in Spain.
We operate in areas such as the Costa Blanca, Costa Cálida, and Costa del Sol, and work with a broad network of real estate agents, property developers, and legal partners.
Whether you're looking for a vacation home, a permanent residence, a new construction project, or an investment property, we'll guide you through the entire purchasing process.
Dutch real estate agent based in Rojales
Our office is located in Rojales, near Ciudad Quesada, Guardamar del Segura, Benijófar, and Torrevieja.
As a result, we know the Southern Costa Blanca not only from advertisements and real estate websites, but from our daily lives.
This is important if you want to know:
- which neighborhood is quiet;
- where amenities are nearby;
- which areas are hilly;
- where you can easily live without a car;
- which beaches are easily accessible;
- and which locations are suitable for permanent residence or vacation use.
Why Choose a Dutch Real Estate Agent in Spain?
Buying a home in Spain works differently than in the Netherlands or Belgium.
That is why many buyers appreciate having a single Dutch-speaking point of contact throughout the process.
We can help you with:
- explanation of the purchasing process;
- select homes;
- organize open houses;
- communication with sellers;
- coordinate legal support;
- discuss financing options;
- and support right up to the key handover.

Buying a Home in Spain with Dutch Guidance
Anyone who wants to buy a home in Spain often starts their search online.
That's a good first step, but the housing market in Spain is fragmented.
The same property may be listed with multiple real estate agents, and not every property is listed on every real estate portal.
That is why we don't just look within our own product lineup.
Through our network of partner real estate agents and developers, we can also include homes and new construction projects from other providers in your search.
First, determine your housing needs
Before we select homes, we consider how you plan to use the home.
For example, we're looking for:
- permanent residence;
- vacation use;
- retirement;
- investment;
- rental;
- or a combination of these?
Next, we'll look at practical considerations such as:
- maximum budget;
- number of bedrooms;
- apartment or villa;
- swimming pool;
- distance to the beach;
- parking;
- new construction or existing buildings;
- and desired region.
Would you like to let us know your preferences in advance? If so, please fill out the questionnaire for your housing search.
Searching for a Home on the Costa Blanca
The Costa Blanca is one of our main areas of operation.
The southern Costa Blanca, in particular, has many different towns and villages located a short distance from one another.
Consider:
- Rojales;
- Ciudad Quesada;
- Benijófar
- Guardamar;
- Torrevieja;
- Los Montesinos;
- San Miguel de Salinas;
- in Orihuela Costa.
Every place has its own character.
Living in Rojales
Rojales has a more traditional Spanish town center, while the municipality also includes the internationally oriented Ciudad Quesada.
There you will find:
- local stores;
- hospitality industry;
- weekly market;
- river;
- Cuevas del Rodeo;
- and residential areas located a short distance from the coast.
For people who enjoy a mix of Spanish village life and international amenities, Rojales might be an interesting option.
Living in Ciudad Quesada
Ciudad Quesada is popular among foreign homebuyers.
You'll find quite a lot here:
- villas;
- bungalows;
- urban developments;
- private swimming pools;
- communal swimming pools;
- golf;
- and the international hospitality industry.
Well-known areas include Doña Pepa, La Marquesa, Pueblo Bravo, and Lo Pepín.
You can read more about this in our guide to the popular neighborhoods of Ciudad Quesada.
Living in Torrevieja
Torrevieja is more appealing to people who enjoy urban living.
Here you'll find beaches, a boardwalk, shops, restaurants, hospital care, and many other amenities within the city.
The housing options range from apartments near the sea to villas and bungalows in the suburbs.
Living in Guardamar
Guardamar del Segura combines long sandy beaches with a compact Spanish town center.
For people who like to live near the sea but not in a big city, Guardamar is an interesting alternative to Torrevieja.
Northern Costa Blanca
On the northern Costa Blanca as well, residential areas vary greatly.
For example, you can check out:
- Benidorm
- Altea;
- Calpe;
- Moraira;
- Jávea;
- Denia
- in Finestrat
The landscape here is much hillier than on the southern Costa Blanca.
For homebuyers who value views, mountains, and a rugged coastline, this might be a better fit.
For more general information, see the best places to live on the Costa Blanca.
Buying a Home on the Costa Cálida
South of the Costa Blanca lies the Costa Cálida, in the Murcia region.
For homebuyers looking around Orihuela Costa or Pilar de la Horadada, it may be wise not to treat the provincial border as a strict boundary.
Depending on your preferences, you can also explore the area around:
- San Pedro del Pinatar;
- Los Alcázares;
- Cartagena;
- of Mar Menor
be interesting.
The housing market and the types of new construction here may differ from those on the Costa Blanca.
Buying a Home on the Costa del Sol
The Costa del Sol is also an important area for international homebuyers.
Well-known places of residence include:
- Málaga;
- Marbella;
- Fuengirola;
- Benalmádena;
- Mijas;
- Estepona;
- in Sotogrande.
The Costa del Sol has a different profile than the Costa Blanca, featuring, among other things, a larger luxury segment and plenty of golf courses.
If you're torn between the two regions, it's best to consider not only housing prices, but also daily life, the landscape, airport connections, and the type of home.
Buying a New Home in Spain
If modern comfort is important to you, you might want to consider new construction in Spain.
New construction projects often offer:
- modern architecture;
- recent installations;
- the terrace;
- shared facilities;
- more energy-efficient construction;
- and requires little direct maintenance.
Be sure to check out our current new construction projects.
Compare New Construction Projects
When it comes to new construction, we don't just look at the list price.
Also important are:
- what is included as standard;
- completion date;
- payment schedule;
- location;
- orientation;
- common expenses;
- parking space;
- salvage;
- and any additional options.
Projects may look very similar on paper, but in practice they can differ significantly.
Buying an Existing Home
In addition to new construction, there are many existing buildings.
An existing home may be a good option if you:
- want to move into the home immediately;
- want to live in a central location;
- is looking for more square meters;
- or if you want a larger lot.
For existing properties, thorough legal due diligence is especially important—for example, regarding registration, renovations, and encumbrances.
Spanish mortgage
Would you like to finance part of your home?
Then we can explain how a mortgage in Spain works and put you in touch with the appropriate parties.
It is best to explore your financing options before reserving a home.
This will help you avoid falling in love with a home that ultimately doesn't fit within your overall budget.
Purchasing Costs in Spain
When you buy a home, you pay more than just the purchase price.
Among other things, you will encounter:
- taxes;
- notary;
- registration;
- legal assistance;
- and, if applicable, financing costs.
The exact costs depend, among other things, on the region and whether you are buying a new home or an existing one.
That is why we prefer to look at the total available purchase budget rather than just the maximum asking price.
NIE for residency
To buy a home, you need an NIE number.
Anyone who moves to Spain permanently may also have to deal with obtaining residency and other administrative procedures.
For more information, please visit our page on NIE and residency in Spain.
Permanently Moving to Spain
Are you interested not only in buying a second home, but also in emigrating to Spain permanently?
That means we’ll also take a different approach when choosing a home.
For permanent residence, factors such as the following become important:
- health care;
- schools;
- supermarket;
- accessibility;
- social environment;
- winter sun;
- storage space;
- parking;
- and life outside the peak season.
Be sure to check out our emigration checklist and information about health care in Spain.
Investing in Real Estate in Spain
Are you interested in buying a home as an investment?
In that case, it's important not to focus solely on a potential rental yield.
Other factors to consider when investing in Spain include:
- purchase price;
- response from children;
- maintenance;
- taxes;
- type of rental;
- regulations;
- occupancy rate;
- and future marketability.
In addition, local and regional regulations apply to vacation rentals.
Therefore, before making a purchase, you should verify whether the desired leasing model is actually available.
Selling Your Home on the Costa Blanca
Casas Palmeras assists not only buyers but also homeowners who want to sell their homes.
When selling a home, we start by assessing the property, its location, and its current market position.
Then we'll work together to determine an appropriate sales strategy.
Valuation
Setting the right asking price is important.
Setting the asking price too high can cause a home to remain listed online for a long time.
Of course, betting too low isn't ideal either.
That is why we are looking at, among other things:
- location;
- housing type;
- surface area;
- lot;
- condition;
- facilities;
- similar homes;
- and current competition.
Professional Presentation
When selling a home, presentation plays a major role.
High-quality photos, floor plans, and clear information help buyers better assess in advance whether a home is a good fit for them.
Depending on the property, additional presentation materials may be used.
International Promotion
Many buyers on the Costa Blanca come from other European countries.
That is why we are not limiting the presentation to local Spanish buyers.
Through various real estate platforms, partnerships, and our own marketing efforts, we strive to bring this property to the attention of a broad international audience.
Support During the Sale
Among other things, we provide guidance to:
- viewings;
- communication with interested parties;
- negotiations;
- reservation;
- documentation;
- and preparations for the transfer.
This way, you'll have a single point of contact throughout the sales process.
Why Choose Casas Palmeras?
We place a particular emphasis on personalized guidance.
You won't receive a list of hundreds of properties with a message telling you to just pick one yourself.
First, we try to understand what you're looking for.
Next, we’ll make a selection that aligns with:
- budget;
- housing type;
- region;
- family situation;
- intended use;
- and personal preferences.
Local Presence
Since our office is located in Rojales, we are present every day in one of the most important residential areas of the Southern Costa Blanca.
That helps with:
- viewings;
- key handovers;
- local contacts;
- real estate knowledge;
- and follow-up care.
Dutch-language support
Many customers appreciate being able to discuss complex matters in Dutch.
Clear communication is especially important when it comes to legal documents, reservations, financing, and taxes.
Extensive network
We work with various real estate agents, developers, and specialized partners.
As a result, we don't have to limit our search to just one of our own portfolios.
This makes it easier to compare homes from different providers.
