Working with the Dolan Property team made the purchase of my property on Marbella’s Golden Mile a very positive experience. Efficient, quick, and professional. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

I sold my property with Dolan last month (March 2023). They handled the initial advertising, viewing, and the final sale documentation and process very professionally, right up to the conclusion in the notary´s office. They always kept me well informed in the process and were always able to offer helpful and pertinent advice throughout, being always available at the end of the telephone or in their office. I found particularly that Vanessa and Michael were model professionals in their business. Leonard Bruce

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for everything you have done for me over the past year whilst my property in Marbella Real has been on the market for sale with your real estate agency. All your staff have been amazing throughout so please will you pass on my thanks to them also.

Owning a holiday home in Marbella, Spain, has been lovely but it can also be quite worrying when you live in another country and can’t speak the language. This becomes even more of a challenge when you are thinking about selling your property and wanting to achieve a good sales price.
Choosing you to be my estate agent has turned out to be one of the best decisions I made. You have always been there at the end of the phone, to help and advise me, and generally take care of all the problems which have occurred over the time the apartment was on the market. There were certainly some ups and downs, but we got there eventually. Even in the difficult times we found ourselves in with the coronavirus you still worked wonders!

My matters in Spain are now all but complete but when I am next over there on holiday, I will certainly pop in to say hello!

With my sincere thanks and very best wishes for the future.

Queremos agradecer al equipo de Dolan Property la atención y la profesionalidad que han demostrado en la gestión de la venta de nuestro apartamento en Marbella (Malaga). Empezando por Michael Dolan, que en un principio nos orientó sobre los tramites y requisitos para poder sacar al mercado la propiedad para su venta y continuando con Deborah y Vanessa, logrando entre todos llevar a feliz termino la operación en un corto espacio de tiempo.
Queremos hacer especial mención a Vanessa, con la que hemos tenido mas relación ya que en todo momento nos atendió con mucho agrado y cercania y nos acompaño también durante el tramite de la firma en la Notaria.
Muy agradecidos por todo. Soledad y José Luis.
