What is buyer assistance?
Costa Difference, in one form or another, has been the customer care agent for Park La Posada for over sixteen years now. Apart from representing the park, we also deal with two client types: those selling their homes and those buying them.
Years ago, buyer assistance when buying a mobile home was nonexistent, because there were no transaction safeguards with checks and balances; a simple bill of sale was all the buyer had to show a transaction had taken place.
Now it is all very different. Residents selling mobile homes can now sell their homes using our “buyers assistance” service.
The buyer assistance offered by the seller starts the moment a home is listed for sale; the listing will state that the home has been independently “market price checked” to confirm the asking price reflects the age of the mobile home.
For security, the use of a Client Account is also included to hold the initial deposit, making it fully refundable until the sellers have signed a SAPA agreement.
After that, the protection offered switches focus by utilising a SAPA agreement (Sale Agreement Private Arrangement) in Spanish (with English translation) is produced and overseen by us to govern the sale. A SAPA agreement includes sale conditions and guarantees vacant possession when it is time to make the final payment.
Finally, only once the seller has confirmed to us that they have received the final payment do we hand over the keys and issue a legal Compra-Venta document verified and stamped by the park owners.
The website demonstrates that sellers offering buyer assistance using us as park agents usually sell their mobile homes quickly in Park La Posada. It is, however, not compulsory for sellers in the park to offer the buyer assistance service; they can sell their homes privately (subject to park conditions) and issue a bill of sale once the sale concludes.
Buyer assistance also includes a FREE translator service to register new owners with the town hall and doctors. This is a saving of 200€ + IVA.
