Lifestyle on the Costa

I want to thank you all for the wonderful service afforded me and my wife. I would also like to thank your representative for his professionalism throughout the time he was with us and for finding the perfect home for us to live in Spain. Everything has gone perfectly from yourselves to the lawyers to the builders. Thank you for a wonderful service.

The process of finding a property in Spain was made very easy by our VIVA consultant, and everything was explained in detail. We wanted a house outside the main tourist areas and so he took us inland. On our first trip out we found our new Spanish home. You have made our dream a reality and we can't wait to move to Spain in the near future. Thank you VIVA.

We bought our El Soto property from VIVA and were very pleased with the assistance and with the overall professionalism of your company. In a couple of years we will be in the market for a villa, and will not hesitate to return to VIVA.

We (Americans) have spent at least three months each year (for the last 20) living abroad and have visited almost 40 countries. We chose Spain for our permanent retirement last year as it is the perfect compromise of lifestyle, cost, food and weather – we haven't regretted a day of it. VIVA found us the perfect home in Estepona surrounded by Spaniards and expats from 18 different countries. Your (blog) article hit the nail on the head: Spain is a top choice.

In my dealings with your company, and indeed your UK partner, the experience has been outstanding. I congratulate you as a company on recruiting such excellent staff and finding such excellent partners in the UK. I have heard so many horror stories from people who have bought properties in Spain; all I can say is they obviously didn't deal with the right company. Your team couldn't have been more helpful. You have two very happy customers who would strongly recommend VIVA to anyone buying in Spain (indeed, we already have done).

We were very impressed with the whole VIVA service. They don't waste any time at all. We talked to one other couple who took a year to find a property. We did it in a day! And being chauffeured around was brilliant. We'd never have found the places we saw if we'd been on our own.

Thanks for the excellent service we received while looking for, and finally purchasing, our Spanish property. The professional and personable manner in which we were treated was much welcomed. The whole process was relaxed and stress-free – hard to imagine, particularly given our 12-year-old daughter was with us throughout. We felt fully informed throughout about what would happen following the purchase, legal matters and what facilities were available to us through VIVA once we took ownership of the property. We would wholeheartedly recommend VIVA to others.

We were picked up from where we were staying in Mijas Costa and here began our relationship with VIVA. That morning was a whirl of information, sitting in VIVA's very pleasant cool offices drinking coffee. . It only took two days exploring before we decided on a new-build, completed but only just released for occupation, at Arenal Golf. There were a few minor hiccups along the way, but nothing that VIVA couldn't resolve.

My wife and I were absolutely delighted with the help we received, in particular the patient and courteous way we were dealt with. We not only felt that we had found our perfect property, but we had acquired a new friend in Spain as well. We are definitely going to recommend you to others.

We would like to thank you for the way you looked after us during last week's visit. You made what might have been a stressful few days into a pleasant experience we will remember forever. We were very impressed with the way our requirements were perfectly matched; no time was lost with viewing unsuitable properties.
