I have spent some time looking for a rental apartment. Although I eventually found one through another agency, it was not due to poor service but rather the general shortage of rental apartments everywhere. The treatment I received from Joan was truly wonderful. I really appreciate someone understanding how difficult it is to find a place and doing everything possible to help. If I ever need to look again, I will definitely come back to you!

I am incredibly grateful and happy to have found the Finques Company team in Figueres! In record time, they found an apartment that suited my needs since I had to move overnight for work reasons. I especially want to thank Pilar and Sonia, who have helped me so much and provided an unbeatable service! I also want to mention Gerard, who showed us the apartment and was very kind and helpful. Thank you all, team! You are the best!

FAQ's

Because we have in-depth knowledge of the evolution of the real estate market in the zones where we operate, and we follow it very carefully and in close detail, documenting it by means of the reports and internal statistical that we draw up every quarter on the supply, demand and operations carried out. All of this enables us to advise our clients on:

Valuation of the market price of the building. On the basis of our knowledge of the area, we draw up, with no obligation, a study of the best sale or rental price, justified with the market prices of that same zone or locality.

Market studies. When it comes to placing on sale a development of buildings or a group of homes, we draw up a detailed study of all the existing supply in the area, along with the profile of the possible buyer who may be interested in the development. We also set out a number of conclusions on prices and viability of the promotion.

During your absence in winter:

  • please, clean regularly the drains of your terraces and balconies before it rains.
  • switch off the electric meter or unplug all the electrical devices (household appliances)
  • Close the water stopcock. Check that all taps are properly closed and not dripping.
  • Do not leave light objects or furniture in the garden or on the terrace as they could fly off in the wind.

Precautions to be taken for a good maintenance:

  • Have the gas installation properly checked (specially the rubber tubes). Be careful with scams as there are false gas reviewers who introduce themselves as employees of an official company.
  • If you have a bank account for the second residence expenses, provide it with enough money to cover he annual expenses and taxes (electricity, water, Town Hall taxes…).
  • You should have a building and contents insurance for your property. If you already contracted one long time ago, review its coverage and update the values.

During your stays in the apartment or house:

-Make sure you never leave the keys put in the lock on the back side of the entrance door (if there is a gust of wind, you may be locked outside, even if you have another copy of the key).

-Make sure you leave all the doors and windows properly closed before leaving the property, and also before going to bed at night.
