Titan Properties cite their professional approach to real estate as a major contributing factor to success in this years’ CNBC-sponsored European Property Awards. Walking away with Best Real Estate Agency Spain, it seems that it’s not only the clients who appreciate their unrivalled knowledge of this sunny southwestern corner of Spain, but also a judging panel of serious industry experts.
Andrew Benitz, Director of Huelva-based Titan Properties, comments, “We are delighted to have won this award cementing our reputation as a professional and consultative company that assists clients with their property purchases in Costa de la Luz. Titan Properties was established by professionals from corporate backgrounds in finance and computing and we have continued to uphold high ethical standards in developing our real estate business. Our customers appreciate knowledgeable people who show the area, lifestyle and most importantly listen to their property requirements.”
Andrew continues, “Building Titan Properties into what it is today has been immensely rewarding. When we set up Huelva province was relatively unheard of, but after extensive research we had a firm belief that it would be a success story of the future and thankfully we were right. Huelva is now an exciting place to be, over the past few years a quartet of four and five star hotels have opened plus two 18-hole golf courses and a marina, and that’s just in our immediate local vicinity. We’ve also skipped across the nearby border to offer property on the eastern Algarve, the least developed and most competitively priced stretch of this popular Portuguese coastline, ensuring our clients have the widest possible choice of second homes.”
