For buyers
Buy your place in Spain or Portugal, without explaining yourself.
Buying or renting is one of life's most personal decisions. You deserve a professional who understands your situation from the first message — not one who merely tolerates it.

What we help with
Everything that makes a move feel personal.
From the agent who answers your first message to the keys in your hand, here's what GREA professionals take care of.
An agent who gets you
A certified, inclusive professional with real experience serving LGTBQ+ clients — not just good intentions — who fights for your interests from the first message.
Your NIE
The Foreigner Identification Number you need to buy, open a bank account or sign before a notary. We connect you with people who handle it every week.
Non-resident mortgages
Financing for same-sex couples and individuals buying from abroad, on equal terms — with advisors who understand cross-border income and paperwork.
Welcoming neighbourhoods
Honest, local guidance on where you'll feel at home, because the atmosphere can vary street by street and a map won't tell you that.
Cross-border family law
Both names on the deed, recognition of your marriage or partnership, inheritance and the questions a good lawyer should never be thrown by.
A soft landing
Relocation and settling-in support so moving to Spain feels like an arrival, not an obstacle course — schools, healthcare, the practical day-to-day.

Why buy through GREA

Questions, answered.
How do I find a gay-friendly real estate agent in Spain?
Look for professionals with real experience serving LGTBQ+ clients, not just good intentions. GREA Spain connects buyers with certified, inclusive agents across Spain, so you don't have to guess who will truly understand you.
Can a same-sex couple get a mortgage in Spain as non-residents?
Yes. Spain has recognised marriage equality since 2005, and banks offer non-resident mortgages to same-sex couples on equal terms. You'll need an NIE, proof of income and usually a larger deposit; a mortgage advisor experienced with LGTBQ+ clients makes the process smoother.
Is Spain safe for LGTBQ+ home buyers?
Spain is one of the most welcoming countries in the world for LGTBQ+ people, with full legal equality and vibrant communities across cities, coasts and islands. The atmosphere still varies by neighbourhood, which is exactly why a local agent who knows the ground makes the difference.
Do I need an NIE to buy property in Spain?
Yes. The NIE (Foreigner Identification Number) is required to buy property, open a bank account or sign before a notary. You can apply in Spain or at a Spanish consulate; a good agent or lawyer will guide you through each step.
