THE REAL DECISION
The property is only one part of the purchase
A beautiful home can still be the wrong purchase when the location, running costs, documents or timing do not fit your plans. We begin with how you want to live, what you can comfortably spend and what must be true before you proceed.
CasaViva Costa keeps the commercial process organised while the right lawyer, tax adviser, lender and notary handle the independent work that belongs to them. You stay informed without having to manage every party alone.
A confident purchase is the result of good decisions made in the right order.
YOUR BUYING ROUTE
Five clear stages, from brief to handover
The details differ by property, but the order and safeguards should remain clear.
-
01
Define the real brief
We translate lifestyle, location, timing, financing and future plans into a practical search brief and an honest total budget.
-
02
Compare the right market
We compare suitable resale homes and new developments on value, daily fit, running costs, availability and the compromises that matter.
-
03
Offer with clear conditions
Price, deposit, inclusions, deadlines, finance and document conditions are made explicit before a reservation becomes a commitment.
-
04
Complete independent due diligence
Your appointed professionals verify ownership, charges, planning and licence matters, community position, taxes and the contract before completion.
-
05
Sign, register and settle in
We coordinate the practical route to the notary, payment, registration, keys, utilities and the first tasks after completion.
BEFORE YOU RESERVE
Four things should already be clear
These are the decisions that protect both your budget and your freedom to walk away.
The property's legal position
Ownership, registered charges, cadastral information, licences, community debts and material alterations need the right professional verification.
The conditions in your contract
Deposits, deadlines, finance clauses, included items and consequences of a failed condition should be understood before money changes hands.
How the home will actually be used
Permanent living, holidays and rental plans can change the location, costs, licensing questions and property that make sense.
OUR ROLE
Calm coordination without blurred responsibilities
You always know what CasaViva Costa is handling and which specialist owns the next check.
Search and comparison
A focused shortlist with local context and realistic alternatives.
Offer and communication
One clear commercial line between buyer, seller and listing parties.
Documents and deadlines
A visible route for reservations, checks, finance and signing dates.
Completion and handover
Practical coordination through keys, utilities and your first steps as owner.
Good to know
Professional advice stays independent
CasaViva Costa is your estate agent and coordinator, not your lawyer, tax adviser, mortgage adviser or notary. We involve the right independent professionals early so commercial momentum never replaces proper advice.
