So, your Las Palmas property isn’t selling: You put it on the market but weeks or even months have passed and the viewings have slowed to a trickle. It’s frustrating but don’t give up. Instead, step back and work out what went wrong with your listing.
Here’s how to diagnose the problem – and fix it…
1. Start with the Price
Most unsold properties in Las Palmas have the same issue: they’re overpriced. This may sound blunt but there is huge demand in Las Palmas at the moment and limited supply. Property that isn’t selling or even getting visits is most likely to be priced wrong.
Buyers know the market. They compare your property to similar homes in the same area. If your asking price is too far off, they won’t even book a viewing.
Even if they do come and see it, they won’t offer. The reality is that even in a tight market, buyers rarely overpay.
2. Look at the Presentation and Promotion
If your Las Palmas property is on price but isn’t selling, have a close look at the listing. Are the photos clear, bright and professional? Is the description well-written? Does it highlight what makes your property stand out to the right kind of buyer? If the answer is no, buyers may never click on your listing in the first place. It helps to have an ideal buyer in mind when you write the listing; a young couple, family with a car, holiday home owner, etc.
Now check where the property is listed. Is it on all the major portals? Is it being promoted on the top portals, on social media, in local networks, and to international buyers?
If your estate agent is relying on one or two sites and waiting for the phone to ring, they’re not doing their job properly.
3. Consider the Timing
Sometimes, the market just slows down. Summer in Las Palmas is a quiet time for property sales. Locals head to the beach and foreign buyers enjoy the summer at home.
If you listed in summer, especially July or August, low interest may be down to timing, not the property itself.
The high season for property sales in Las Palmas is the winter. Local buyers are active and international buyers are here in the city.
Your Las Palmas property isn’t selling: The Solution…
You need a clear plan — and someone who knows the Las Palmas market inside out.
Talk to an experienced, local estate agent. One who has sold properties like yours.
They will give you an honest, realistic valuation based on real sales, not just asking prices.
They’ll explain what’s working and what isn’t.
They’ll refresh the marketing, take better photos, rewrite the listing, and promote it across the right channels — locally and internationally. Good agents earn their fees rather than sitting back and hoping for the best.
With the right pricing, smart marketing, and a motivated agent, your property will attract viewings from serious buyers, and that’s how you get the sale moving again.
