Alicante is one of the most active property markets in Spain, with strong domestic and international demand. Salt corrosion on the Costa Blanca and 1970s–80s flats account for the most common problems. If we find no defects, we refund your money.
No ties to developers, estate agents or sellers. We work only for you.
Every part of Alicante has its own typical problems. These are the ones we find most in Alicante:
Salt corrosion all along the Costa Blanca — the Mediterranean damages façades, joinery and installations.
Damp in coastal buildings — the sea humidity gets into walls and ceilings.
Swimming pools with structural cracks — in 1980s–90s developments that have never been inspected.
The process in Alicante is simple and fast.
No small print. No travel costs in Alicante and the metropolitan area.
