From the huerta and the centre of Murcia to Cartagena, the Mar Menor or Lorca, the Region of Murcia brings together traditional huerta houses, blocks from the 1960s–80s and a large number of second homes on the coast. The soil, the heat and seismic activity all affect the condition of properties. The average home price in the Region of Murcia is 1,593 €/m². If we find no defects, we refund your money.

Every area has its own typical problems. These are the most common in Murcia:
Cracks in one of the most seismically active areas in Spain
The 2011 Lorca earthquake was a reminder that the region has a seismic risk. Cracks in the structure and walls must be assessed technically before buying.
Rising damp in huerta homes
Farmhouses in the market-garden area and ground-floor homes near irrigation channels and the river Segura suffer from rising damp in the walls.
Corrosion and damp on the coast
In Cartagena, the Mar Menor, Águilas or Mazarrón, the salty air damages reinforcement, railings and façades, especially in second-home apartments.
Extreme heat: roofs and insulation
The high summer temperatures take their toll on flat roofs and waterproofing, and poor insulation sends energy consumption soaring.
The process in Murcia is simple and fast.
