I have known Ben Buyl for over 17 years. We are a property development company and rely heavily on our partners. I consider Open Frontiers an essential cog in our business. In the time since I’ve know Ben, there have been many many difficult periods for all businesses. Ben never changed during these testing and trying times, he always makes himself available, constantly putting his clients welfare to the forefront. He possesses excellent market knowledge and when aligned with his honesty, calmness, integrity and willingness to help, he simply can’t be bettered. A true gentleman, I have great faith in Ben and his team in Open frontiers and look forward to many more years working together.

My experience with the Open Frontiers real estate agency in the operations we have had with them has been pleasant, they have brought all the documentation we need for the preparation of the deeds and there is fluency in communication with Ben, who is an excellent professional and better person.

We cannot recommend Innin highly enough.Buying a home abroad can be stressful, and our process was particularly complex, but Innin supported us every step of the way with incredible dedication, patience, and kindness. Over the past six months she truly went above and beyond — navigating challenges, pulling strings when things seemed stuck, and always making us feel supported and reassured.As an estate agent in Sotogrande, her local knowledge, professionalism, and commitment made an enormous difference throughout the entire process. She never made us feel like just another transaction; she treated us like family and guided us through one of the biggest decisions of our lives with honesty and genuine warmth.We trust her completely and are deeply grateful for everything she has done for us. Thank you, Innin, for helping us find not just a house, but a place that already feels like home.

We purchased our initial property within Ribera del Marlin in 2008 and after many wonderful years there decided to move and looked to find a smaller but still high quality Atico style apartment within walking distance of the Port. We engaged Michael Norton and Ben Buyl from Open Frontiers to act on our behalf. There was no rush in the deliverable as we believed it wasmore important to find the right property first as our owned Apartment would sell easily.Open Frontiers worked very hard but discreetly to find properties that met the criteria and we viewed many excellent apartments that came close to meeting the requirement together with some that did not. The work ethic was enthusiastic with limited pressure and it became obvious that the market reputation of Open Frontiers was very high and their ability to deliver was second to none.After a couple of years, we decided to sell our apartment prior to purchasing another which would very much help with our ability to execute any purchase. Open Frontiers ensured viewings were limited to Clients who were looking to purchase and ready to move; for the right offering. We sold very quickly and the sale process managed by Open Frontiers was efficient and trouble free whilst all deliverables were executed without fuss.Sale to completion took around 4 months with Ben and the Office working closely with Lawyers and all thirdparty correspondents where trust and reliability were the cornerstone of interaction. Additionally, 2 weeks after agreeing a sale we viewed an apartment that met our criteria 100% and completed just 1 week after the sale. All rather amazing and in part due to the great network Open Frontiers works within.Certainly, a good choice for us, always putting the Client first, limited pressure but just a little when needed. Moving is not easy but Open Frontiers make it easier for sure.

Benjamin Buyl of Open Frontiers Sotogrande, was our real estate agent for the purchase of our flat in Ribera del Marlin, Sotogrande. I am happy to give Mr. Buyl the testimonial of a very competent, extremely reliable, and trustworthy businessman. The previous owner of my flat was a very unreliable person, he had never kept to appointments and only delivered the documents needed for the purchase transaction after countless requests. With great patience and persistence, Mr. Buyl took care of all matters necessary for the purchase transaction. He was always a good advisor and supported me in the preparation of the purchase contracts, notary tasks and all other formalities. I owe Mr. Buyl that the purchase process came to a good end and thank him formally for the excellent cooperation. I can recommend Mr. Buyl without reservation at any time.

Open Frontiers has sold and purchased 3 properties for me. During my career I have worked with many real estate agencies worldwide, but I have never received the information and service as with open frontiers. I strongly recommend this office if anyone wants to buy in and around the exclusive Sotogrande.
