DOM Tenerife services for international buyers

The international luxury property buyer in Costa Adeje needs more than a guided tour. We coordinate NIE issuance in 1-2 weeks through a specialised firm, open local accounts at private banking (BBVA Private, CaixaBank Banca Premier, Santander Private), connect the client with an independent solicitor for registry due diligence and deposit contract review, and accompany the client physically at the notary signing.

For HNWI profiles we offer additional premium service: off-market property presentations away from public portals, discreet intermediation to preserve privacy, fiscal advisory with a local firm specialised in ZEC (Canary Islands Special Zone) and RIC (Reserve for Investments in the Canaries) residency, and connection with premium interior designers and renovation contractors if the transaction involves subsequent refurbishment.

The team operates in five languages (Spanish, English, French, German, Russian). Each transaction has a dedicated lead agent throughout the process, with direct communication via WhatsApp, email, or video call per client preference.

Visit timing and the best moment to buy in Costa Adeje

Costa Adeje maintains real estate activity twelve months per year, but two windows offer broader selection and less buyer competition. The first runs February to April, when properties whose owners decided to sell after the Christmas season come to market. The second runs September to November, with new listings post-summer and ahead of pre-fiscal year-end closings.

We recommend planning at least two trips of 4-5 days each: the first to explore micro-zones, view 8-12 properties in the target tier, and calibrate criteria; the second, 4-8 weeks later, to revisit the 2-3 finalists, conduct technical due diligence, and formalise the offer. We coordinate visits in blocks to optimise client time.

For clients with limited time on-island we offer HD video-call viewings with recording, annotated floor plans, and written reports per property. This is the format used by buyers who close without setting foot on the island, typically with local legal representation.
