Costa del Sol — Independent Buyer's Counsel

The only side that matters. Yours.

Nearly everyone in a property deal is paid by the seller. I'm paid by you — and answerable only to you.

A note
One of the largest decisions you'll make — and the one where you have the fewest people on your side.

The developer has an agent. The seller has an agent. You, usually, have no one. This practice takes the empty chair.

Andrés Rada, founder of RADA, Costa del Sol buyer's advisor
The advisor

The advisor I never had.

I don't read a home the way an agent does. I read it the way I was trained to read any asset — for what it's truly worth, what it could become, and where the risk is hiding.

I've bought here, and I let a place of my own — so I know this coast from the owner's side of the table, not the agent's. When a property is wrong for you, I'll say so.

Andrés Rada — Founder

An advisor, not an agent.

An agent earns more when you spend more. I charge a fixed fee — so my only incentive is the right home, never the expensive one.

Every property is underwritten before you commit: structure, tax, licences, what's truly buildable. The diligence most agents skip — in plain English.

One voice, all the way through.

From the first call to a finished home — on your side at every step.

01SourcingEvery channel — new-build, resale, off-market. No allegiance to any seller.
02DiligenceLicences, land classification, debt and community checks — verified before you commit.
03StructureOwnership, residency and lawful tax efficiency — mapped, then certified by an independent abogado.
04NegotiationEvery price and condition, grounded in data, focused on your outcome.
05TurnkeyOptionalReform, design and furnishing — managed for you, ready to live in or let.

A fee, not a percentage.

The usual model

Agents take a share of the price. The more you spend, the more they make. Their interests and yours are not the same.

This practice

A fixed fee, agreed before we begin — the same whether the right home is €700k or €2M. So when a deal is wrong, I can simply tell you.

The fee schedule is shared in our first conversation.Request it →
