“Planning my move from Scandinavia to Barcelona was proving to be more than I could manage myself due to lack of time and poor Spanish skills. I found Ruby Slippers by chance while surfing the net, and decided to try their services. Rebecca worked above and beyond the call of duty, and kept me informed at all times as to what was going on and what my options were. She even organised an Internet connection for me while I was away, so it would be ready when I moved in. I would highly recommend Ruby Slippers to anyone who needs help in this area. Believe me – they are worth it!”

“We have recently bought an apartment in Barcelona with the help of Ruby Slippers. We found the apartment ourselves and initially contracted Rebecca to help with negotiating a price. Rebecca stepped in and recommended a lawyer to oversee the whole transaction and stood by us through an ordeal that persisted 2.5 month until signing. Our lives were hectic and we had to leave the country before this; Rebecca once again saved the day by taking on power of attorney and signing on our behalf. Rebecca is a great contact to have in Barcelona real estate ! Highly recommended !! ”

“I was looking to invest in an apartment in Barcelona but I live abroad and do not speak Spanish so I would never have gone ahead with the purchase if I had not found the services of Ruby Slippers to manage the renovation work that might be needed. They did a great job managing the quotations and the work and keeping me regularly informed during the work in progress. I highly recommend their very professional services which were tailored to my needs. Thanks for a job well done!”

“Rebecca’s help was greatly appreciated by us. We are 2 full time and over-time workers that already had been living in BCN for 6 years but couldn’t find the time to even check the 2342098 websites.

Highly recommendable in order not to get lost in the jungle of flats in BCN and spend too much time on the search”

“If you don’t have time to look for a great flat in Barcelona, call for appointments, visit flats (when the estate agent comes which is not always the case and when the flat is not already rent!!) and look for all the details etc. the Ruby Slippers’ team is the best solution so far. They really try and succeed to suggest you flats that match your criteria. Moreover they are very professional and persuasive for negotiating the rent and the conditions. I really recommend them for their competence.”

“My husband and I were relocating from London and had 3 weeks to find a flat to move in with our little one. It is true that there are a lot more options than 7 years ago when we left Barcelona, but it is still an incredibly stressful task and the time pressure was killing us. Rebecca was recommended by a friend and she was just great! She listens, she takes your requirements seriously and she takes notes of everything you say. Her team does really pound the streets on your behalf – I don’t know about you, but I still get lost in the Eixample – and her record of success is impecable. The best thing about this service though, is the fixed fee. Finding a new home is stressful enough, having to watch every hour and every penny is just too much. In the end, we struck lucky and found a flat by ourselves. But instead of considering this job done, Ruby Slippers stepped up and offered to help us with the move. What else could you ask for? I strongly recommend her services.”

“I have nothing but good things to say about Rebecca and Fede. We were in a situation where we had to find a flat just 4 weeks before moving to BCN from the UK and they managed to find us a great place in less than a week and then were able to negotiate a fantastic deal with the agent and owner. It couldn’t have gone better and I can’t recommend Ruby Slippers highly enough.”

“Viví en Barcelona por más de 16 años. Conozco bien mi ciudad y el mercado inmobiliario catalán. Sin embargo, cuando mi pareja y yo decidimos volver a vivir en Barcelona pensamos que lo mejor seria contar con la ayuda de profesionales. Así, contactamos Ruby Slippers para que nos gestionaran el alquiler de nuestro futuro hogar en la ciudad. Tengo que decir que ¡fue la mejor decisión que hemos tomado! Estamos muy contentos y positivamente impresionados con la profesionalidad, la seriedad y la rapidez con que Rebecca y Fede han gestionado cada etapa del proceso. Los recomiendo ampliamente por su profesionalismo y calidad humana! Gracias por todo!”

“Ruby Slippers was recommended to me by a friend who had previously used them. I was impressed with how quickly my friend had found a flat and the service provided so did not hesitate to pay the cost to have someone help me with my search. Rebecca took time to understand what kind of property I was looking for and also helped me to get a real feeling of what was on the market, and also what I did and did not want. I work crazy hours and also travel frequently, which also made it difficult to always be there to view properties. Rebecca was great and was also available to view properties on my behalf while I was away and I felt confident that she knew what I wanted and also gave great feedback. Great professional service from start to finish. Definitely recommend them. Thanks!”

“To find a nice flat in Barcelona you need: Time (and lots of it), patience and a good level of Spanish. I had none of these and got in touch with Ruby Slippers. I was so impressed with the professionalism and level of service I received, right from really listening to what I wanted and only showing me properties which were relevant to the final stages of helping me negotiate a better deal and translating my contract and even getting the agent to change things on it that were not helpful to me. The cost of using Ruby Slippers was easily balanced against the time and money I saved in finding my perfect home in my price range. I have already recommended Ruby Slippers to others and would definitely continue to do so. Really worthwhile and great service, thank you!”

“I was looking for a flat in Barcelona but every flat that I saw was missing something and not at all like the photos shown on the internet. I was getting fed up of estate agents not calling me back and not turning up. Rebecca and Fede were extremely helpful and friendly. They found me a flat in 2 weeks, they negotiated for me and made the whole process much less stressful I just wished I had hired them from the start. I´m really happy with my flat and they are well worth the small fee. Highly recommend them!”
