Approach a seller directly!!

Can be good advice and I bought my last house directly, so am not going to knock that.

But, there can be real pitfalls there as well, it isn’t that easy, for a good dozen or so reasons – which is why agents exist in the first place – perhaps do both, but if you are new to buying in Spain I wouldn’t just assume that approaching a seller directly means saving money, far from it in many cases I know of.
