Spainigo is a licensed, family-run agency on the Costa Calida. We moved countries ourselves, and we guide Canadian buyers through every step, from the first video call to keys in hand.
The reasons our Canadian clients give us, in their own order
The Costa Calida counts more than 300 days of sunshine a year. While Toronto shovels snow, February here means coffee on the terrace.
Compared with Toronto or Vancouver, property on Spain's southern coast costs a fraction per square metre, and day-to-day living costs less too.
Spain's healthcare system ranks among the best in the world, with private cover available at prices that surprise most Canadians.
Direct flights link Toronto and Montreal with Madrid and Barcelona, with quick connections on to Alicante and Murcia, the two airports serving our coast.
Spain is one of Europe's safest countries, and this coast has long-established international communities that make settling in straightforward.
International buyers are the norm here, so every step of the process, from banks to notaries, is used to working with foreign owners.
The practical picture, stated plainly
Every foreign buyer needs an NIE, Spain's identification number for foreigners. It is paperwork, not an obstacle: our legal partners arrange it as part of the purchase.
Canadians can stay visa-free for 90 days in any 180. For longer stays, the non-lucrative visa suits retirees with passive income and the digital nomad visa covers remote workers. Note that Spain's golden visa ended in April 2025, so buying property no longer grants residency.
Exchange rates move your budget more than most price negotiations. A currency specialist usually beats a standard bank transfer by a clear margin.
See the currency impact toolSpain places no restrictions on Canadian buyers. You own the freehold outright, with the same title a Spanish citizen would hold.
Taxes, notary and registry fees come on top of the purchase price. We show you the complete number before you commit to anything.
Run the numbersSpain runs six hours ahead of Eastern Time. Our afternoons are your mornings, which makes video calls and live tours easy to schedule.
Five steps, no pressure at any of them
A free video call in your time zone. We listen to what you want, tell you honestly what your budget buys, and if we are not the right fit, we say so.
We match your brief against our new build inventory across the Costa Calida and Costa Blanca and send a curated shortlist with real prices and delivery dates.
Fly over for a viewing trip and we plan it end to end, or take live video tours of every shortlisted home from your living room in Canada.
An independent English-speaking lawyer checks everything. With power of attorney, your NIE, contracts and completion can all be handled without repeat flights.
We stay with you past completion: bank account, utilities, furniture, and rental management if you want the home to earn while you are away.
For new build properties, our service is completely free for buyers. The developer pays our commission, and you pay exactly the same price as if you had walked into their sales office alone, with an advocate on your side instead of a salesperson.
For resale properties we work with transparent, agreed-in-advance pricing, and we will often first check whether a new build actually serves you better. Ask us and you will get a straight answer.
If you are a Canadian realtor, financial planner or relocation advisor whose clients ask about Spain, we partner with professionals worldwide. Your clients get our licensed team on the ground, and you stay part of the journey.
