The economics of Spanish real-estate intermediation are often unclear to buyers. We think that should be addressed directly, not danced around.
Many properties are controlled by seller-side agencies or intermediaries. In those cases, the buyer may deal with someone who appears helpful while the underlying incentive remains seller-led. That does not automatically make the information false — but it does change how a buyer should interpret advice.
We can disclose our own economics, our own role, and our own limits. If a cooperating fee exists and is known to us, we say so. If the seller-side split is not visible to us, we say that too. The point is not to perform perfect transparency where the market does not allow it — it is to be precise about what is visible and what is not.
Global Tenerife acts buyer-side. We disclose our own economics on every engagement. In some transactions, seller-side compensation structures are only partially visible or not visible to us at all. Where that is the case, we tell you directly rather than imply certainty we do not have.
A buyer cannot judge advice properly without understanding incentives. If a number, a recommendation, or a sense of urgency is entering the conversation, you should know whether it comes from evidence, from alignment, or from a structure that may not be working in your favour.
Yes. Global Tenerife is paid by you, the buyer — on a flat fee agreed before any work begins. You are the client, and the fee is the whole of what we earn on your purchase.
Before the engagement starts, in writing. The fee and exactly what it covers are fixed in your terms — nothing is open-ended and nothing is added later. It is paid in two instalments: half at the signed arras, half at the escritura.
Our loyalty is one-sided — always the buyer's. The way we are paid can depend on the deal. Usually you pay us directly and that flat fee is the whole of it. On some transactions a cooperating fee exists on the seller side; where it does, and where it is visible to us, we tell you. Either way the fee is structured so it never decides which property we put in front of you — only your fit does.
Often a property is controlled by a seller-side agency whose own commission and arrangements we cannot see. When that is the case we say so plainly, rather than imply a certainty we do not have. What we can always tell you is our own economics, our own role, and our own limits.
We will look at stock held by seller-side intermediaries — that is most of the market — but our job is to filter it, not to push it. Our fee does not rise or fall with which property you choose, so there is no version of a deal where it pays us to talk you into the wrong one.
