Villa in Oliva – Practice handed over, clients online, residence in Spain
A couple from Hesse, both self-employed tax advisers, planned a new chapter of life in Spain after handing over their practice. As they wanted to continue advising their clients digitally for a few more years, two fully equipped studies were as important as a quiet living environment.

Property for sale in Oliva: mediterranean living between orange groves and the sea
Oliva lies on the southern Costa de Valencia and is one of the places that have preserved their authentic character. The historic old town, miles of sandy beaches and very good infrastructure make the town interesting for many German-speaking buyers who want to move to Spain permanently. At the same time, Oliva offers more peace than many well-known coastal towns, without having to give up good accessibility.
This practical case shows how acquiring a villa for owner-occupation can be financed durably and soundly.
After handing over the practice: villa with two studies
A couple from Hesse, both self-employed tax advisers, planned a new chapter of life in Spain after handing over their practice. As they wanted to continue advising their clients digitally for a few more years, two fully equipped studies were as important as a quiet living environment.
After a longer search they chose a detached villa in an established residential area of Oliva. The house offered a generous layout, a low-maintenance garden and short distances both to the city centre and to the beach.
The €1,000,000 total investment in detail
- Purchase price: 846.000 €
- Additional costs: 101.500 €
- Renovation: 52.500 €
- Total investment: 1.000.000 €
- Equity: 450.100 €
- Financing required: 549.900 €
Part of the assets stay invested, the house gets ready
The equity consisted of savings, a securities portfolio and the sale of a rented apartment. Even so, part of the assets was to remain deliberately invested in order to keep financial flexibility after the move too.
Before moving in, the property was to be adapted to the requirements of a permanent residence.
Sound villa; kitchen, bathrooms and two studies planned
The villa was in very good structural condition. The planned investments therefore focused on living comfort and energy efficiency.
Planned were a new high-quality fitted kitchen, the modernisation of two bathrooms, more efficient air conditioning with intelligent control, the renewal of the windows on the south side and the fit-out of two studies with custom-made fitted furniture and capable network technology.
As all measures were defined before the purchase contract was concluded, they could be fully included in the total investment.
65 % financed, every cost planned in from the start
The financing was set at around 65 % of the purchase price. This kept enough equity as a long-term reserve, while at the same time creating a balanced financing structure.
Alongside the purchase price, all acquisition costs and all intended modernisation were included in the overall plan from the outset — covered from equity, not by the bank loan. Additional financing steps after the purchase were therefore not required.
Move to Oliva with financial independence intact
Once the work was completed, a comfortable house was created that meets the requirements both of the remaining working years and of later retirement.
The buyers were able to move their centre of life to Oliva as planned while preserving their financial independence.
Quiet setting, good services and the sea can go together
Oliva shows that quiet residential locations, good infrastructure and proximity to the sea can be combined excellently. Anyone who fully calculates the purchase price, additional costs and modernisation costs early creates a robust basis for a permanent move to Spain.
