You found the home. What is left is the part that costs money when it goes wrong: the price, the legal checks, the offer and the closing. We do that part for buyers who did their own search. Start with a €750 pre-offer check, or hand us the purchase from offer to keys.
Two ways we help
| Question | Pre-offer check | Closing-only |
|---|---|---|
| For | You are about to make an offer | You want us from the offer to the keys |
| You get | A written report: price benchmark, red flags, questions for the selling agent, the lawyer's check arranged and quoted, an offer and deposit plan | The check, then the negotiation, the deposit contract, your lawyer, NIE, power of attorney and notary coordinated, and the signing day |
| Price | €750, credited against our fee if you then engage us | 2% of the asking price, minimum €5,500, no IVA |
| Timing | The report within 5 working days of payment | From the offer to completion |
What the pre-offer check covers
- Price benchmark. What comparable homes nearby sold for (sold, not asking), how long this one has been on the market, and what that says about room to negotiate.
- Red flags. What we see in the listing, the building, the area and the papers the agent has shared, and which of them the lawyer has to clear.
- Questions for the selling agent. The written list to send before you offer, from community fees and planned works to why the owner is selling.
- The lawyer's check, arranged and quoted. We brief a lawyer and get a written quote for the legal check, usually €300 to €500 plus IVA. You decide, and you hire and pay the lawyer directly. What a property lawyer does and costs.
- An offer and deposit plan. An opening offer and a walk-away price with the reasons, the conditions to put in the offer, and the deposit contract terms to ask for.
Closing-only: from the offer to the keys
- We make and negotiate the offer with the selling agent, in Spanish, on sold prices.
- We go through the deposit contract with your lawyer before you sign it.
- We coordinate your lawyer, the NIE, the power of attorney, the mortgage if you need one, and the notary date.
- We are with you, or for you, on signing day, through to the keys.
The fee is 2% of the asking price, with a minimum of €5,500 and no IVA. It is fixed on the asking price the day we make your offer, so every euro negotiated off stays with you. You pay €2,500 when you sign with us, credited against the fee; the rest is paid half at the deposit contract and half at completion. If you bought the pre-offer check first, its €750 comes off as well. We usually work on homes from about €300,000; below that, ask us.
How the check works
- Send us the listing link and anything you already know about the home.
- Within one working day we send the one-page terms and the invoice.
- You pay and we start. The written report reaches you within 5 working days, with the lawyer's quote.
- You decide: make the offer yourself with the report, hire us for the closing (the €750 comes off our fee), or walk away.
Not included
- The lawyer's fee. The lawyer bills you directly, at the price you saw before hiring them.
- Legal advice. Zenith Concierge is not a law firm; your lawyer advises you.
- A visit. If you want someone at the home, a visit day is €500 for up to five homes in one area, travel included.
Quick answers
Can I hire a buyer's agent after I have found the property?
Yes. Many buyers find the home themselves and want someone on their side for the price, the checks and the closing. That is what closing-only covers, at 2% of the asking price with a minimum of €5,500. If you only want a second opinion before offering, the pre-offer check is €750.
What if the check says I should not buy?
You keep the report and the lawyer's quote, and the €750 is the price of the check. Walking away from the wrong home before you sign a deposit contract is what the check is for.
Can I cancel the pre-offer check?
Yes, until we deliver the report: you get the €750 back less the work already done. Once the report is delivered, the check is complete and is not refunded.
Do I have to be in Spain?
No. The check, the negotiation and the paperwork all work remotely, and your lawyer can sign for you under a power of attorney. If you want someone at the home, we sell visit days.
Is IVA added to your fee?
No. Zenith Concierge charges 2% of the asking price, or the €5,500 minimum, with no IVA on top. The lawyer, the notary and the taxes are billed separately by each of them.
