Imagine if you could guess the future. Or the unknown.<\/p>\n
Would you like it?<\/p>\n
We don’t have a magic wand, we can’t grant you this wish. What we do promise is that you\u2019ll be able to settle in Madrid on the date you have planned. Because you\u2019ll arrive knowing what type of housing you\u2019re going to find for rent and the time you\u2019re going to devote to the search.
\u2014It\u2019s not that easy \u2014says Almudena, pointing out how complicated the task is.
\u2014On the contrary! It’s very difficult \u2014agrees Paloma.
\u2014But it can be done.
\u2014Exactly! With help.
\u2014And, above all, information.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s important to have enough time. The more you have, the better you\u2019ll get the picture. It\u2019s a very dynamic market and homes are rented quickly, you need at least 1 month and many hours to gain a realistic idea.
\u2014Yes, because, in some cases, properties are rented from one day to the next \u2014insists Almu on indicating how arduous this adventure is.
\u2014As long as they are in price \u2014Palo puts into context adding the positive side.
\u2014And the location is good.
\u2014But, also, there are new rentals in the market every day.
\u2014Meaning the offer remains stable although the properties vary.<\/p>\n
The first step is to become familiar with the most commonly used real estate portals. Register and save favorites. The sooner, the better. In this way you\u2019ll get to know first-hand the real estate reality in Madrid, the prices you find and the size and conditions of the properties. The second step, when you already have a date of arrival in Madrid, is to start contacting the ads that most interested you and that you\u2019ve saved as favorites. It\u2019s not worth communicating with any owner or, much less, real estate agent for a specific property more than 15 days before the day of the visit. Of course, you can contact the real estate agencies with more time if you want to create a relationship and to be kept informed of the novelties they\u2019re marketing. Bear in mind, the relationship will depend entirely on the professional you contact. Once you land in Madrid, give yourself 2 weeks to make all the visits, choose the property, make sure it’s the right choice, gather all the documentation and finally sign the contract. Keep in mind that no matter how planned is everything, there will always be unexpected events.<\/p>\n And the best way to solve them is to have the necessary information to be able to move forward quickly into option B.<\/p>\n Therefore, ff you are planning to move to Madrid soon, you will find all the relevant information in The secret of relocating to Madrid<\/em><\/a>.

\u2014You can even start when the idea of moving to Madrid is nothing more than that, an idea \u2014a fore-sighted Almu suggests.
\u2014The essential portals are idealista<\/a> and fotocasa<\/a>.
\u2014Even, in most cases, checking only idealista is enough.
\u2014But if there is time and you want to carry out a thorough search, it\u2019s advisable to study the offer of fotocasa and even Vibbo<\/a>.
\u2014Ah! And bad news is that the English version of these portals is not very good \ud83d\ude2c<\/p>\n
\u2014Because they\u2019re rented quickly \u2014repeats tiresomely Almu.
\u2014And when you arrive they may no longer be available.
\u2014But there will be new options \u2014Palo\u2019s optimism always comes to the surface.
\u2014That you\u2019ll receive in your mail.
\u2014Thanks to the alerts you have activated.<\/p>\n
\u2014Anyway, you\u2019ll receive the news with the portals alerts\u2014insists Almu.
\u2014And nobody is going to keep a house for you without receiving the reservation payment \u2014points out Palo, being realistic.
\u2014And much less a real estate agency.
\u2014But, well, it could be rewarding to give it a try.<\/p>\n
