Leon Ruiz - certified real estate agent in Spain

What brought you to Spain and how long have you been living on Costa del Sol?

I was born in Henley on Thames, UK. My parents, Spanish and Dutch, decided to come to Mijas to start a new life in 1979 when I was just 2 years old. Raised and lived most of my life in this area I have a good knowledge of the Spanish culture, what to do, where to go and also how to get through Spanish bureaucracy.

Tell us why you love working in real estate

I have been in sales for the most part of my work life, really enjoying working for goals. I have learned  everything involved in property conveyancing, this together with my sale skills made me want to work in the estate agency business, something that I will never regret.
