Selling Marbella · Buyer-Side Boutique

Selling a Marbella property? We don't take everything.

We onboard a handful of sell-side mandates a year — only where we can run a real strategy, defend a real price, and close in a real timeline. No vanity listings.

Why List With Us

Three reasons sellers choose Muse.

Curated buyer pool

We already know who’s buying.

Because we’re primarily buyer-side, we maintain a live brief on what 200+ active HNW buyers are actually looking for. Your property gets shown to the people who fit — not blasted to a list.

Off-market positioning

Quiet beats loud, every time.

Public listings get stale and discounted. We can run a 90-day off-market push to qualified buyers first, then escalate only if needed. Most sellers never need step two.

Transparent terms

No commission shenanigans.

One fee, agreed up front, in writing. No co-broking cuts, no “referral fees,” no hidden buyer-side rebates. You see the entire transaction economics.

The Process

Five steps. Median 67 days.

  1. 1

    Valuation

    Walk-through, comparables, condition notes. You receive a written valuation band in 5 business days — not a sales pitch.

  2. 2

    Marketing strategy

    We pick the channel mix: open, exclusive, or off-market. Each has a real plan — photography, copy, target buyer profile.

  3. 3

    Buyer match

    We surface qualified buyers from our intelligence network first. Public listing only if the brief calls for it.

  4. 4

    Negotiation

    Founder-led. You see every offer, every counter, every legal note in real time. No back-channel surprises.

  5. 5

    Close

    Spanish notary, fiscal coordination, key handover. We stay through completion — not just to escritura.

FAQ

Sellers ask us this.

What commission do you charge to sell my Marbella property?
Standard Marbella rates run 5–6% plus VAT for open listings; we typically work at 4–5% on exclusive engagements where we can deploy the full marketing programme. We never quote a number before seeing the property — every brief is different.
How long does it take to sell a property in Marbella?
Our median time to signed deed is 67 days from listing for correctly priced inventory in the €1M–€10M band. Off-market and ultra-prime deals (€15M+) take longer — usually 4–9 months — because the buyer pool is smaller and the diligence cycle is deeper.
Should I list exclusively with one agency or open the property to all?
Exclusive listings outperform open listings 3-to-1 on net achieved price in our data. Open listings get pushed by whichever agent has the loudest pipeline that week; exclusive listings get a real strategy, full media, and a coordinated buyer outreach across the high-net-worth network.
What does the marketing investment look like?
For exclusive listings above €2M we cover full professional photography, drone and twilight video, floor plans, a dedicated landing page, and placement across our buyer-side intelligence network in 7 languages. No upfront cost — it is part of the engagement.
I live abroad and own the property as a non-resident. How do taxes work?
Spain withholds 3% of the gross sale price for non-resident sellers (Modelo 211) as an advance on capital gains. Real CGT is 19% on the net gain for EU residents. We coordinate with English-speaking fiscal counsel so the withholding gets refunded cleanly if you overpaid.
Can you sell my property quietly, without a public listing?
Yes. Roughly 40% of our prime-band deals close off-market. We circulate the brief directly to qualified buyers we already know are in market — usually via a one-page tear sheet under NDA. No portals, no signs, no neighbours wondering.
