Real Estate Personal Shopper in Gran Canaria · Miyabi Homes

You don't need to see more properties. You need to see the right ones.

Buying a property in Gran Canaria can be overwhelming. There are too many options, too much information and too many decisions without context. As a real estate personal shopper, I'm not here to show you houses at random. I'm here to help you choose well.

Guidance From the search to the decision

The problem isn't a lack of properties. The problem is a lack of filtering.

Most buyers don't need to see more listings. They need to understand the market better, clearly define what they're actually looking for, and cut through the noise. That's where professional guidance completely changes the experience.

What usually happens when you buy without a strategy

You spend weeks viewing properties that don't really fit, go on viewings that get you nowhere, keep second-guessing price, location or potential, and feel like you're losing time without making real progress.

What changes when you buy with a clear strategy

You get more clarity from the start, fewer irrelevant options, purposeful viewings and much stronger decisions, because the whole process is better filtered and better thought out.

My approach

Fewer viewings. Better decisions. Less noise. More clarity. Less pressure. More control. Buying well isn't about rushing. It's about focusing.

Clarity before impulse Before you start viewing, you need to understand what truly fits you.

Selection before volume You don't need a hundred options. You need the right ones.

Context before confusion Location, price, use and potential need to be read with expertise.

Real guidance You're not alone in a market that's often overwhelming.

How I work with you

This process is designed to help you move forward with more order, more focus, and less wear and tear.

I define with you what you're really looking for

Before we look at any properties, I clarify your goal, budget, property type, area and timeframe with you. A good purchase starts with a good definition.

I filter the market for you

I select the options that genuinely make sense for you. I don't send you a mountain of listings. I help you cut through the noise so you can see clearly.

We view with intention

Viewings stop being property tourism and start becoming well-directed decisions. Less wear, more quality.

We analyse each option calmly

It's not just about whether you like it or not. It's about assessing whether it fits you, whether it makes financial sense, and whether it really matches your buying goal.

I'm with you all the way to the notary signing

When a real opportunity comes up, I help you move forward with more clarity through negotiation, paperwork and decision-making. I stay by your side throughout the whole process, right up to the day of the notary signing.

How my fees work

I work with a mandate contract ("contrato de encargo") and an upfront provision of funds ("provisión de fondos"). This means my commitment to you is real from day one: I don't send you listings just so you can buy on your own or through another agency afterwards.

Provision of funds: €3,000 + IGIC

Upon signing the mandate contract, a provision of funds of €3,000 + IGIC is paid, covering the costs of the mandate (search, market filtering, viewings and management) for up to 12 months. This amount is non-refundable, as it covers work and expenses incurred from day one.

A real commitment from day one

The provision of funds is what allows me to dedicate real time and resources to your search from minute one, instead of working on a "let's see what happens" basis. All the fees of the mandate, including this provision, are set out in writing in the contract before we begin.

By your side from the first minute to the notary

I don't disappear the moment you find something you like. I support you through negotiation, document review, and I'm with you on the day of the notary signing. My mandate ends when you have the keys — not before.

I deal with the agencies, not you

I'm in contact with most agencies across Gran Canaria: I'm the one who calls them to find out if they have anything that might interest you, often before it's even listed. When needed, I do the first viewing with the agency myself so you don't waste your time if the property doesn't fit, and I request all the documentation for each property to review and check it before you see it. This gives you access to far more of the market than you'd see searching on your own, without having to call dozens of agencies yourself.

I don't need your loyalty, I need a clear mandate

It's normal for a buyer to talk to several agencies at once when there's no commitment involved. That's why I work with a mandate contract: I don't need you to simply trust me, I need a clear framework where we both know what each of us gets. That's what lets me dedicate real time to your search, instead of spreading my attention across a hundred different clients.

A clear mandate, no surprises

Everything is set out in the mandate contract before we start: scope of service, fees and timelines. That way you know exactly what you're getting for your trust, and I can spend real time finding the right property for you — not sending you listings anyone can see on a property portal.

And what if we haven't found anything after 12 months?

If after 12 months we haven't found a property that fits what you're looking for, I keep working on your search at no extra cost until we do. Your mandate doesn't expire just because we didn't get it right the first time.

We met Sven during our last vacation in Las Palmas, as we are looking for a nice house to buy in a quiet area. Sven took a lot of time to investigate and to consult us, listening to our requirements and wishes, but also stating if something was not so logical to follow. As where else some estate agents only want to sell the most expensive property, Sven really takes care about his customers. It was a pleasure to meet and work with him and we will surely get in touch on our next visit.

I couldn't be more grateful to Sven and his team for the excellent work they did. From the very beginning, they guided me through the entire home buying process, advising me with professionalism, a personal touch, and complete transparency. Thanks to them, I found the house I was looking for, and they made the whole process much simpler and more relaxed than I had imagined. They also resolved a pending matter related to the property with great efficiency, something I am extremely grateful for. They handled everything quickly and diligently, always providing me with clear information and keeping me informed every step of the way. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend this real estate agency. They are true professionals and offer exceptional customer service. Thank you so much for everything!

Sven is an extremely competent and dedicated real estate agent who not only understands his profession but lives it. With his many years of experience and his fluency in German, English, and Spanish, he is an invaluable partner, especially when buying property abroad. He identifies potential pitfalls early on and ensures a smooth process – always with an eye for detail. Anyone who values security, transparency, and excellent service is in the best hands with Sven. I would buy with him again in a heartbeat!

I had already read Sven's book (Buying Property in the Canary Islands - available on Amazon ;-) ) It was all theoretical, but definitely informative. However, all that knowledge is useless if you don't trust the real estate agent – and I have to say I'm so incredibly happy that Sven guided us through the entire buying process, you can't even imagine. He was always available, and since he speaks fluent German, English, and Spanish, everything went smoothly. He was interested in my concerns and always found solutions. Buying a house isn't easy even in Germany, and I was worried because I don't even speak the language here. But honestly, it was better than in Germany, at least for me – because I feel completely supported, and everything went better and faster than I had imagined. So, a huge thank you for the kind and competent service.

Mr. Wetterau is an expert in the real estate industry on Gran Canaria. We were extremely satisfied with the advice and support he provided during the purchase of our property! It's wonderful that someone like him still exists; unfortunately, as we all know, there are quite a few bad apples. A thoroughly positive experience!
