In the sun-drenched southeast of Spain, the whitewashed town of Mojácar has long attracted people seeking the classic Mediterranean lifestyle — a mix of beach, sunshine, and tranquillity. Among the most recognisable names shaping this coastal community is Price Brown SL, a real-estate agency that has become synonymous with professionalism and trust over nearly four decades.
Founded in 1986, Price Brown was the first British-owned, professionally qualified estate agency to open in Mojácar. What began in a modest rented office next to a local bank has evolved into one of the area’s best-known property firms. In 1996, the company moved into its own prominent premises on Mojácar Playa, symbolising its growth and long-term commitment to the region.
A local agency with global reach
Although firmly rooted in Mojácar, Price Brown’s reach extends across the wider Almería province. The firm handles a broad portfolio of properties – from traditional village homes and coastal apartments to luxury villas, land plots, and new developments.
The company’s guiding ethos is built on honesty, transparency, and personal service. Its team combines deep local knowledge with the ability to support international clients, many of whom are buying or investing in Spain for the first time. The result is a reputation for reliability that has endured through market fluctuations and changing buyer trends.
Professionalism and compliance
Navigating the Spanish property market can be complex, especially for overseas buyers unfamiliar with local legal requirements. Price Brown has built its success on full compliance with Andalusian regulations governing property sales and rentals. Every property is backed by complete documentation, including title deeds, ownership records, utility statements, community-fee details, and the legally required energy performance certificate.
This professional approach helps protect both buyers and sellers, ensuring transactions are secure and transparent. The company’s longevity – approaching 40 years in business – is itself a testament to the confidence clients have placed in them over generations.
The appeal of Mojácar
Perched high above the Mediterranean Sea, Mojácar is a striking blend of whitewashed houses, narrow cobbled streets, and breathtaking views. It offers 17 kilometres of beaches, an average of 320 days of sunshine per year, and a lively international community. Unlike Spain’s more crowded resort areas, Mojácar maintains its charm and authenticity, appealing to those looking for a more peaceful version of coastal living.
Its combination of climate, lifestyle, and affordability makes it particularly attractive to buyers from the UK, Ireland, northern Europe, and increasingly from within Spain. Nearby airports, modern healthcare, and good transport links add to the area’s convenience – making it ideal for both permanent living and holiday investment.
Beyond buying and selling
What sets Price Brown apart is its complete service offering. Beyond property sales, the agency provides long-term and holiday rentals, property management, and after-sales support. For clients living abroad, this means ongoing assistance with maintenance, rental administration, and legal or tax matters related to ownership.
The company’s after-sales service is a major part of its appeal. Buyers often receive help with utility connections, insurance, and local paperwork, ensuring a smooth transition into Spanish homeownership. Many clients maintain long-term relationships with the agency, relying on it to manage their homes and tenants for years after purchase.
Market range and buyer profile
The Mojácar area caters to a wide range of budgets and lifestyles. Smaller apartments and townhouses under €100,000 are ideal for holiday use or investment, while detached villas with sea views can reach €400,000-€600,000 or more. This diversity attracts a mixed clientele – retirees, remote professionals, families, and investors – all drawn by the area’s climate, scenery, and relaxed pace of life.
For many, owning a home in Almería represents not just a financial investment but a lifestyle choice. With a multilingual staff and strong community ties, Price Brown helps buyers turn that aspiration into reality.
Opportunities and challenges
Spain’s property market remains one of the most stable in southern Europe, but it comes with its own set of considerations – from taxation and legal paperwork to exchange rates and regional variations. Having an experienced local agent helps navigate these issues effectively.
Meanwhile, the future looks bright for the region. Improvements in infrastructure, growing digital connectivity, and the rise of remote work are encouraging more year-round residents. The rental market continues to thrive, making professional management and reliable agencies even more valuable.
Adapting to a changing industry
While online listings and global property platforms have changed how people search for homes, Price Brown has successfully blended traditional service with modern digital tools. Clients benefit from online visibility combined with the personal touch of an in-office consultation – a balance that remains crucial in a business built on trust.
A fixture in the community
After nearly forty years of continuous operation, Price Brown is now part of Mojácar’s identity. Its success is not only commercial but cultural: a bridge between local traditions and international aspirations. Generations of families have bought, sold, or rented through the agency, relying on its professionalism and local insight.
That continuity – rare in today’s fast-moving property world – underscores the company’s commitment to Mojácar and to every client who has walked through its doors.
Conclusion
As the Costa de Almería continues to attract both investors and lifestyle buyers, long-established agencies like Price Brown remain central to the region’s story. Its blend of integrity, experience, and genuine customer care ensures it stands as a trusted name in Spanish real estate – a company built not only on property but on people.
