What is your home in Orihuela Costa worth today?

Methodology

How MOVR determines a realistic market value.

A valuation is only useful if it is honest. Three data sources anchor every MOVR opinion — and if any one of them contradicts the others, we tell you why in writing.

Valuation FAQ

What Orihuela Costa owners ask before requesting a valuation.

How does a MOVR valuation differ from a bank tasación?

A bank tasación is a formal loan-purpose appraisal — it certifies the property for mortgage lending, but it is not a market-price opinion. A MOVR valuation is a market opinion: what your home is likely to actually sell for today, based on recent comparable closes, current buyer interest in your type of property and honest pricing tiers. Most sellers need both, at different stages.

What data do you use to price my property?

Recent closed sales within your urbanisation (not asking prices — closed prices). Current active listings you are competing against on Idealista, Kyero and mimove. Live buyer demand from our own cartera — who is searching for your property type this quarter, at what budget, from which country. And the specifics of your home: view, orientation, community fees, condition, terrace size, garage, storeroom.

How long does the valuation take?

A written first response, with a realistic price range and market context, usually within 30 minutes during working hours (Monday–Friday, 09:00–19:00 Spain time). For a full in-person valuation with photography and a written strategy, we typically schedule within 3–5 working days.

Is the valuation really free? What is the catch?

The valuation is free and there is no obligation to list with us. We are a no sale, no fee agency — we only earn commission when we actually complete your sale. Providing an honest valuation up front is how we earn the right to be considered. If our number is not the highest, we tell you why the higher numbers are unrealistic and let you decide.

Which areas of Orihuela Costa do you cover?

All of Orihuela Costa: Villamartin, Cabo Roig, La Zenia, Playa Flamenca, Punta Prima, Campoamor, Las Colinas Golf, Los Dolses, Los Altos, Los Balcones and Torrevieja south. We know each urbanisation's pricing tiers, community fee ranges, and which nationalities are currently buying there.

Why do estate agents give such different valuations for the same property?

Two reasons. First, some agents inflate the number to win the listing, knowing they will pressure you into reductions later — the industry calls this 'buying the instruction'. Second, agents genuinely see the market differently based on their own buyer flow. MOVR's approach: we give you the number we would list at, the number we would accept at, and the reduction schedule we would apply if it did not sell in the first six weeks. All in writing.

What happens after I request the valuation?

A MOVR representative (in most cases Paul Vega personally) reviews your submission, cross-references our sales database and buyer cartera, and writes back to you directly — in English, Swedish, Dutch, German or Spanish, whichever you prefer. If the numbers look workable and you want to go further, we schedule a viewing to confirm condition, take reference photos, and prepare a written listing proposal. No pressure, no obligation at any stage.

Do I have to sell exclusively with MOVR?

No — the valuation is independent of any listing agreement. If you later decide to list with us, we do offer optional exclusive representation with enhanced marketing (professional twilight photography, drone film, priority placement in our cartera and international portal boost), but a shared-agency arrangement is also possible. All terms are written, transparent and cancellable.
