First opened in 2017, Rivas & Blasco is a boutique real estate agency based in San Sebastián that specializes in the sale of premium homes in the Basque Country. Their portfolio of homes includes exceptional apartments and villas valued at up to €5,000,000. Most of this agency’s properties are not advertised through traditional means; instead, these homes are offered exclusively to the firm’s clients, most of whom come through referrals.
The main thing that sets Rivas & Blasco apart is the fact that they have their own team of architects, attorneys, and urban planning specialists. Thus, in addition to managing the sale of the property, this agency provides full support to the client, helping them to make their property more attractive on the market. This includes the possibility of dividing the property, updating the interior layout, processing tourist lodging licenses, obtaining occupancy permits for properties cataloged as commercial, showcasing the potential of the property through rendering, etc. In fact, Rivas & Blasco carries out renovations in 50% of the homes they sell.
Foreigners represent a sizable part of the sales made by the company. This is because Rivas & Blasco provides comprehensive support for processing all the paperwork required of foreigners to purchase property in Spain. That includes agents’ traveling to other cities, translation services, airport pick-up services, assistance with processing documentation at the police station, formalization of the sale before a notary, etc.
The real estate agency also has a selection of furnished properties for rent for medium-term stays (3 to 4 months), designed especially for those who are traveling to the Basque Country for work or to spend the summer. These homes are located in the best areas, such as Paseo de La Concha and Paseo de Cristóbal Balenciaga, offering guests an unparalleled stay in true “Basque style.”
