Ownership and funding

Who owns what you read

Legado Inmobiliaria is not part of any group. It operates under Legacy Luxury Living SL, a company based in Benidorm (Alicante) with a single shareholder: Pedro Torres Martínez, estate agent registered with the RAICV under number 6440.

That same person runs the company, owns the domain, edits the newsroom and signs the reports. There are no outside shareholders, no fund behind it and no third party with any power to decide what gets published.

How we are funded

Legado Inmobiliaria earns its revenue from its work as an agency, not from publishing. There are three sources, all disclosed to the client before any work begins.

• New build: commission paid by the developer on completed transactions, following standard practice in Spain.
• Buyer’s agent service: fees paid by the buyer, agreed in writing before the search starts.
• Mortgages: intermediation commission on arranging finance, as a mortgage credit intermediary.

What does not fund us

• We sell no advertising and no sponsored slots, either in the newsroom or on the blog.
• No media outlet pays to use our reports: the data and charts are free to use, citing the source and linking to the report page.
• We receive no grants or public funding to publish this content.
• We do not sell or pass on the personal data of anyone who writes to us or downloads a guide, beyond the providers that work on our behalf and are listed in our privacy policy.

The conflict of interest we declare

We publish data about the same market we sell in. That is a real conflict of interest, which is why it is written here rather than left for you to discover.

We offset it the only way that works: publishing the methodology alongside the figure, citing and linking every official source, correcting in writing when we get it wrong, and never promising price advantages or future returns. If a report cites a development we market, the text says so.

Who writes

There is no newsroom. Pedro Torres Martínez writes, checks and signs, with fifteen years in the Costa Blanca property market. His biography, credentials and every article he has written are on his author page.
