From my home base in Estepona I guide buyers along the Costa del Sol. Step by step, through one of the most important decisions of your life. With knowledge of the market and an eye for what you are really looking for.
I grew up in Rotterdam and studied at the Hotel Management School in Leeuwarden. After that I built broad commercial experience at one of the largest real estate companies in the world. My interest in real estate eventually brought me to the Costa del Sol, where I had been coming for years. Here I also earned my official Spanish real estate diploma, with the highest distinction.
What drew me to the Costa del Sol was the quality of life, the sun and a real estate market that is full of movement. I wanted to put my experience to work in a place where I make a difference for people looking for a first or second home here. The way Costa Select works fit that perfectly from the start: personal, transparent and with a full focus on the buyer's interest. After a first conversation with Marc we quickly agreed.
What makes this work rewarding is that no two searches are the same. One person is looking for a modern apartment as an investment, another for a characterful family villa. It gives a lot of satisfaction to earn that trust and to find, together, the home where everything comes together.
Outside of work I am a keen road cyclist. In my free time I love getting on my racing bike to explore the mountain roads in the region. I live in Estepona and enjoy Spanish outdoor life, preferably together with my partner and children.

Apartments, penthouses, townhouses and villas. I help you choose the property type that fits your life and your plans.
Whether you are looking for a second home or an investment, I know the projects and the neighbourhoods that hold their value.
I live and work in Estepona, so I know the region inside out. Not just the real estate market and the projects, but especially daily life too: the best local restaurants and the places you have to see. I am happy to share that knowledge with you.
Because I live here myself, I often hear at an early stage who is considering selling, before a property even reaches the market. That way I can sometimes offer you opportunities that stay invisible to the wider public.
The Costa del Sol combines authentic Spanish charm with a modern lifestyle. The microclimate is excellent for sport and relaxation, and Marbella, Estepona and Sotogrande each have their own character. It is a region where you quickly feel at home.
The standard Costa Select approach, the same for every client and every consultant. From the first introduction to well beyond the handover of the keys, we follow these five fixed phases.
Your goals, regions, budget and use. Together we build a search profile that fits. (2 to 4 weeks)
Property portals, off-market listings and our own network. You receive a short, carefully made shortlist. (4 to 8 weeks)
We negotiate on your behalf: without emotion, but sharply, based on comparable sales. (1 to 3 weeks)
Lawyer, valuation, technical inspection and tax calculation. We coordinate everything. (3 to 6 weeks)
Handover, keys, registration, insurance and aftercare in the first year. (1 to 2 weeks plus aftercare)

The words that come back most often in my feedback are reliable and fully unburdened. Buying a house abroad is exciting, and clients appreciate that I communicate transparently and bring calm to the process.
I don't sell houses, I help people buy. Where a traditional agent wants to move fast to sell their own listings, I start with you. If a property isn't right, I say so. With me, no is a perfectly valid answer.
Buying a house on the costa is more than finding the right bricks and mortar, it is choosing a new lifestyle. The key is a partner who knows the market and, above all, listens to you.
One conversation, no obligations. We discuss your situation, I give honest advice, and you decide whether a next step makes sense.
