My little piece of Heaven

With reference to the recent property I purchased in Mediterraneo – Calahonda, as you know I ran the ‘Gauntlet’ of Real Estate Agents, a term I use loosely as I found most generally speaking to lack professionalism. The ordeal of having to deal with the mediocre Agents was a frustrating affair even though I gave precise instructions to assist them in the search they sadly DID NOT LISTEN to what I was actually looking for. My search went as far as Casares, Estepona, Manilva, Le Duquesa to the West of Marbella and to the East of Marbella including Elviria, Cabopino, Calahonda, Mijas Costa, Mijas Golf and Mijas Pueblo but again nothing suitable was found simply because the Agents (Multiple) were showing apartments which just did not meet my criteria. It was by chance that I came across Start Group with initial contact made with Dave who did not apply any pressure, the next day he made contact and I briefed him on what I wanted. He was put under pressure by me as the property I was searching for was not to be a ‘Rental property or a pure ‘Investment’ but it was /is to be for me to retire in to and therefore it had to be ‘Right’. He showed me several properties which all held numerous aspects of suiting my criteria but they did not posses that certain ‘Feel’ which you only find when you walk in the ‘Right’ property. Through continued perseverance they found exactly what I was searching for…My little piece of Heaven, I immediately fell in love with the place and made an offer which accepted and again. StartGroup provided me with expert Market knowledge while undertaking this process. To those who are serious about finding their ‘Little piece of Heaven’ in the Costa Del Sol, I can without reservation highly recommend StartGroup to help you with your search. Sincerely Bill Andrews

Great first impression that lasts!

Jennifer is very professional through her way of being accessible, comes up with suggestions for different objects that are for sale and is very knowledgeable and super nice at screenings. As a customer, you get a great first impression, she is honest and guides us through the process. Jennifer is an incredibly person to talk to and keeps us updated on new exciting homes that may be of interest to us. We are convinced that it is largely Jennifer's knowledge, preparation and availability that will help us find our dream home soon! We can warmly recommend everyone to hire Jennifer when you are selling or buying a home in the Costa Del Sol. Great advantage that Jennifer speaks Swedish, English and Spanish. Many of our friends have both bought and sold through Jennifer. Sincerely Catharina Ek

Great experience, great adventure!

During this apartment search adventure, I must have visited around 11 houses. With 6 different agents and several real estate agencies. Without a doubt, the professionalism and availability of this agency cannot be compared with any other. I was very lucky to have Leon as my commercial advisor. A great in the industry, he is a life saver when it comes to one of the biggest decisions in life, which is buying your first home. Difficulties arose, but with professionals like him, everything was quickly resolved! Congratulations on your work and I encourage you to keep it up!

From holiday apartment to permanent home

We used Start Group last year to both buy and sell our properties. The timing wasn't perfect as it was during the pandemic, but our experience with all the staff at StarGroup was very positive throughout the whole process and in particular with Jennifer. She was amazing right from our first meeting, she was so helpful, knowledgeable, kind and professional, and kept us informed of all the developments when we were unable to return to Spain. Nothing was too much trouble for her, and she really did go the extra mile for us. I would highly recommend Start Group, and if you deal with Jennifer, that's an added bonus! Rosie and Charlie, UK

Selling and buying over and over

Incredibly friendly and professional agents who really follow up their clients in the best possible way. We have both bought and sold property via Start Group and give them a warm recommendation. Jennifer in particular is recommended and she delivers at its best.

Great service

I conducted a "casting" among several real estate agencies to sell my house. The first two wanted to make the contract directly with the photos I took with my mobile phone and without seeing the house. At StartGroup, I contacted David Hemmings, who first wanted to see the house and then made a magnificent photographic report and interactive video. Throughout the sales process, the professionalism and kindness of the team have been excellent and have gone beyond what I believe was their strictly professional obligation, especially by León Ruiz, with whom I have dealt the most. I have sold my house and I can only thank them for making all the procedures easy for me, as I live 600 kilometers away.
