Marbella's Golden Mile Property Specialist Since 2009

Our history

The firm's founder and CEO, Michael Dolan, has lived in Marbella since he was a teenager when his family moved here from the UK. Michael's late father was a well known local surveyor who was involved in many of the major developments along the coast and Michael carries on a proud family tradition as a real estate professional. Michael was initially involved in project management working on some highly regarded projects throughout Spain, thirteen years ago he moved on to the agency, opening the Hamptons operation in Marbella before moving on to Panorama where he was appointed Director of Residential Properties. In 2009, he founded Michael Dolan Estates and in 2011 opened the current La Carolina Park office under the Dolan Property brand.

What our customers think

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

Dolan Property sold my apartment in Marbella last year (2018) in only three months, when I thought it might take three years. Easy and pleasant to deal with. Congratulations Michael on your 10 years in the real estate business. Looking forward to the next 10!

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.

We moved into our new home eight weeks ago. Dolan properties went above and beyond our expectations, they listened to our requirements, were patient, understanding and utterly professional.. Michael Dolan was a pleasure to work with, a gentleman with a brilliant sense of humour and extended knowledge of Marbella and its surrounding areas, backed up by his associate Vanessa who would address any of our concerns promptly and with such kindness. I would not hesitate to recommend this business if you are looking for your future home in Marbella.
