iberia north | property agency
Iberia North is a bespoke property agency presenting interesting homes from across the region. Based in Asturias, we introduce local properties to an international market and also work with estate agents in the area to find particular properties either directly or as a commission. Our involvement starts from the initial search through to purchase, then design and construction, when required.
We can help guide you through all the stages of finding your dream home, without language issues; Marc Furnival, the Director, is a native English speaker and also speaks Spanish. Whether you are buying or building a house, or thinking of starting a business, it is a big step and it is important to be sure of the property you decide to buy. Our role as independent intermediary between the buyer and the seller allows us to listen to your needs to give you honest and impartial advice. Aswell as arranging viewings while you are here, we can help source local professionals, such as notaries, solicitors, surveyors, architects and builders.
We are on hand to answer your questions, whatever they might be. To understand better what you are looking for, we have found it useful to discuss your reasons for buying a property before visiting too many first hand. This includes if it is a personal or business property, and whether you are looking for mountain views, something coastal or even a city flat. But, also how you intend to use it; a couple of visits per year, move to Spain year-round, or rent it out as a holiday home, or as can often be the case a mixture of these. This allows us to identify better what you are looking for, so before your visit we can sift through everything available to prepare appropriate viewings. If you have something very specific in mind that you cannot find, we can make discreet enquiries on your behalf.
Marc Furnival, the Director, is an Architect registered both in the UK and Spain (CV LinkedIn). With many years of experience in architecture and property, after visiting Spain regularly for over twenty years, he now lives in Eastern Asturias. Marc and his wife, Olga, originally from La Rioja, built their own house in the beautiful Picos de Europa mountains, so Marc has first hand experience of the whole process.

It is in many ways the start of an adventure, and we are here to help make that go as smoothly as possible for you.
A 10 point guide on the basics of buying property in Spain
Asturias is full of places to discover. Dramatic mountain ranges emerging from beautiful forests with stone shepherds’ cabins off the beaten track; a green, unspoilt coast with pretty fishing villages and crystal clear rivers running down to secluded beaches below clifftop walks with spectacular blowholes spraying up on wild, stormy days; and, cultural small cities with bustling historic streets and traditional farmers markets. With all this and so much more to discover in between, no wonder people want a home in this beautiful corner of Europe.
