Maria Jose

Who Are We?

The web site, www.costa-luz-holiday-villas.com is part of the Costa de la Luz Homes S.L. organization, a well-established fully registered Spanish limited company, but at the same time it is a family business where we all work hard to make you feel at home and help you find the right property for your holiday, or to buy, be it in Chiclana, Alcala de los Gazules, Paterna de Rivera, Sanlucar de Barrameda, Vejer, or wherever.

Maria Jose was born in Cadiz and has many years experience (in Spain and the UK) both in Customer Service and as an estate agent. Roy is Maria Jose's husband and, although born and raised in Somerset,

Royhe has been around the Costa de la Luz area for over 25 years. Maria usually handles Listings and Sales while Roy's background as a translator and editor makes him the ideal person to handle the fine detail often associated with the backroom work (contracts, mortgages, etc.) as well as acting as your interpreter for your private contract and completion. Over the years we have got to know a lot of people in this area, some good and some bad! We know the right people to get things done but we also know the cowboys so we can steer you away from them and safely through the minefield of buying real estate in Spain.

Irene (pronounced Ee-ren-ay) is our office manager. If you wander into the office she will usually be the first person you talk to. Chiclana born and bred, she speaks good English so don't be afraid to talk to her and tell her what sort of property you are looking for! IreneApart from being your first point of contact, Irene is also responsible for keeping the real estate database up to date, preparing your itinerary when you want to view properties and, along with Roy, coordinating all aspects of your purchase from the time you decide that you have found the property you want right through to signing of the deeds.
