Selling a property in Tenerife — whether a family home, holiday flat or investment — requires more than just listing it online. In a competitive real estate market like the Canary Islands, presentation is everything.
Follow these expert tips to make your home stand out and sell faster — all while staying fully compliant with Spanish property law.
1.
Remove personal items
Photos, souvenirs, toys, electronics — anything that distracts the eye should
go. Neutral homes sell faster.
2. Keep
the kitchen clean and clutter-free
Hide sponges, bottles, food, and appliances. A tidy kitchen suggests order and
space.
3.
Bathrooms must be spotless
Remove towels, soaps, cosmetics. Make sure everything smells fresh and looks
polished.
4. Store
away clothes and personal items
No shoes, bags or clothing on display. Clutter-free homes look bigger and more
appealing.
5.
Maximize light
Open curtains and doors to let in natural light. Turn on all interior lights —
even during the day.
Why it
matters:
A well-presented property attracts more views, ranks better on real estate
portals, and sells faster — often at a better price. Ensure you also have the
required paperwork: energy certificate, nota simple, ownership and tax
documentation.
Final tip: Prepare your property as if your ideal buyer is walking in today. First impressions aren’t just important — they’re everything.
