Property buyer's agent

Buy your home in Madrid without being in Madrid

We represent only the buyer. We search, visit, negotiate, audit and — if you wish — renovate your home for you. You decide from wherever you are; we take care of everything else.

No commitment. We explain how we work and tell you honestly whether your search is a fit.

Our method, at your service

We buy for you the way we buy for ourselves

With method, with data, and with the judgement of a developer that stakes its own money on every deal.

The problem

Buying well in Madrid, from abroad, is nearly impossible

Dated living room, the real condition of many homes listed on portals

The best homes never reach the portals

The finest properties in Salamanca, Justicia or Chamberí sell through contacts before they are ever listed. From abroad, you only see what nobody else wanted.

Old kitchen that portal photos never show honestly

You can't visit or compare

Coordinating viewings from another country, deciding from portal photos and negotiating without local market knowledge puts you at a disadvantage against any professional buyer.

Home under construction: the technical issues only due diligence catches in time

The legal and technical risk is yours

Hidden charges, problematic owners' associations, unpermitted works, disguised defects. Without your own due diligence, you find out after you've signed.

The Lumier difference

We are not an agency. We buy homes professionally — now for you too

Lumier is a property developer: every year we buy, renovate and sell homes in Madrid's best neighbourhoods with our own money. That same method — off-market access, professional negotiation, technical due diligence and an in-house architecture studio — is what we put to work for you.

Off-market access. Doormen, neighbours, agencies and our reputation in the sector show us properties you will never see listed.

We negotiate with data. We know what every street is worth because we buy on them. Our average saving: between 5 and 12% of the price.

In-house architecture studio. Mónica Diago's team assesses each home's real potential before you buy and, if you wish, delivers it renovated, turnkey.

Search and shortlist

We scan the market and off-market, visit for you and present only the best — with detailed video walk-throughs if you're abroad.

Negotiation and due diligence

We negotiate the price and run complete legal and technical due diligence before you sign anything.

Signing and handover

We guide you through paperwork and financing — even with power of attorney if you can't travel. And if you want to renovate, we handle it.

International buyers

The whole process, wherever you are

More than half of our clients buy from outside Spain, so the service is designed to work remotely from start to finish: video viewings narrated by our team, legal and technical due diligence by our in-house legal team, help obtaining local financing as a non-resident, NIE and power of attorney management so you can sign without travelling, and full service in English.

Many of our clients see their home for the first time the day they move in.

Fees

3% success fee. If you don't buy, we don't charge

Our incentive is yours: buying well, not buying fast. With average savings of 5-12%, our fee pays for itself — on a €2 million budget, the estimated saving is around €275,000.

FAQ

Your questions, answered

What exactly does your buyer's agent service consist of?

We exclusively represent the buyer throughout the entire process: from defining the project, searching and viewing, to negotiation, closing and renovation if needed. You define the goal and maximum price, and we deliver the home of your dreams, turnkey and hassle-free.

Do you have access to off-market properties?

Yes. A significant share of the best deals happen off-market. Thanks to our network of contacts and reputation in the sector, we access properties that are never openly listed.

What savings can I expect?

As an example, the estimated average saving on a €2 million budget would be €275,000. This comes from our access to genuinely good opportunities, our negotiating strength with sellers and better renovation costs, since we have our own architecture studio.

What happens if we don't find the right home after a while?

We never force purchases. If you don't buy, we don't charge the 3%. If after a reasonable search there is no fit, we review the approach together or pause the project. Our priority is your long-term satisfaction.

Do you offer legal, tax and remote support for international buyers?

Yes. Over 60% of our clients live abroad. Our in-house legal team performs legal and technical due diligence on every property before purchase, and we can also help you obtain local financing if needed. We handle the whole process, wherever you are.
