Esales very recently assisted in the marketing and sale of my overseas property. I can wholeheartedly recommend their professional marketing services as from day one they have been thorough. I must extend an extra arm of gratitude to my agent who went over and above to get things done outside working hours. Without his expert knowledge and guidance to set the right price for the market the process would have been harder. I was very pleased at the speed and efficiency of correspondence or calls at the weekend to tell me I had an offer. There was a few hurdles to get things done often but this was no issue for the reputable notary office they put me in touch with. I felt everything was under control at all times. If you are looking for an efficient and professional service to market to global investors look no further. Everything was extremely transparent.

I highly rate how professionally this company handled the marketing and exposure of my property, also the fact they are contactable by phone or email at any time for updates and help. They are so much more cost-effective than local agents who can easily fob you off and charge extortionate fees. Esales has more coverage in all markets around the world and after many years of trying with local agents, we decided this was the best route to go with. Delighted to have sold inside 8 weeks of listing and we will be listing 4 other overseas properties we own. Very thorough and transparent from start to finish and we sold over asking price for any cynics out there !

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five-Star Review
I have had an excellent experience advertising my properties with eSales and can confidently say they are true professionals in international real estate marketing.
Through eSales, I successfully promote a diverse portfolio of premium properties located directly in front of Ponta Preta Beach, Maio, Cabo Verde, including:
Beachfront and beach-view residential development lots
A model beachfront home
My beachfront restaurant, Martin’s,
A private beachfront mansion, and
My penthouse villa, Villa Martin
The eSales team is highly dedicated, responsive, and genuinely committed to serving their clients. They provide outstanding exposure, consistently generate high-quality, serious leads, and understand how to position unique international properties to the right audience.
What truly sets eSales apart is their professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to connect sellers with motivated buyers and investors from around the world. Their platform has been an invaluable tool in expanding interest and visibility for my Cabo Verde properties.
I highly recommend eSales to any property owner or developer looking for reliable service, strong international reach, and real results. — Martin D. Harris Maio Properties | Cabo Verde

My property is advertised with Esales, not sold yet but it is early days. I live in Spain and deal with Gerard who always responds to any questions I have within minutes or at most, a few hours. My property is advertised all over the world so I am confident it will sell eventually, The fundamentals here are what impressed me. Gerard does what he says he will do and very quickly. For an online service that is very important and gives me confidence. Also, if Gerard needs information, he will call me. Speaking to a human being these days is rare but still essential. Thoroughly recommended.

I must say that my first exposure to this company was via an online search on google which happened to be an 'accident'. I normally engage directly with estate agents selling property face to face but after reading all about the company I decided to contact the company within minutes. Initially I was reluctant to respond but I am so glad I did!
Immediately after sending a request to contact me a polite and professional member of staff named Gerard phoned me and explained extensively how his company could meet my needs and requirements for selling my Bulgarian mountain house. I decided to go ahead and pay the one off marketing fee as I knew instantly that this would save me thousands of pounds in estate agent commission in Bulgaria.
Furthermore, Gerard went out of his way to compile and assist me with my marketing profile page and within just 48 hours, as promised, my property was live on 76 portals online, representing 42 countries with a spectrum of potential buyers of 249.1 million. Gerard has been transparent throughout and has advised me regularly regarding the progress of potential buyers. I am so impressed and Gerard advised me this is just part of the service offered by the company. I am very happy with the services offered and would not hesitate to recommend this company.

Complete Guide to Selling Real Estate in Sweden
Selling a premium villa on the Stockholm archipelago, a modern penthouse in Gothenburg, or a historic apartment in Malmö requires an understanding of Sweden’s highly digitalized, transparent, and structured transaction framework. Real estate operations in Sweden move exceptionally fast, governed by strict consumer protection laws, unique housing association models, and centralized tax reporting.
1. The Legal Frame: Bostadsrätt Associations and the Contract-Binding Rule
The legal structure of home ownership in Sweden depends entirely on the property type, heavily impacting how a sale is legally processed:
Fastighet (Freehold Property) vs. Bostadsrätt (Cooperative Apartment): If you sell a standalone house (fastighet), you are transferring the ownership of the physical land and building. However, if you sell an apartment, you are almost always selling a bostadsrätt. This means you do not technically own the real estate; rather, you own a share in a housing association (bostadsrättsförening or BRF) coupled with the right to occupy the apartment indefinitely. The sale is legally conditional upon the BRF board approving the buyer as a member.
The Point of Binding Sale:Under Swedish law, a property transaction becomes legally binding the exact moment both parties sign the purchase agreement (överlåtelseavtal). Unlike markets with prolonged escrow or closing periods, there is no “under contract” cooling-off phase for the seller. Crucially, the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) marks this signature date as the definitive point of taxation, regardless of when the buyer takes physical possession or pays the final balance.
2. Taxation: A Flat 22% Rate and Capital Gains Deferral
Sweden features a straightforward capital gains tax structure for private residential real estate, though the method of calculation involves specific regulatory fractions:
The Effective 22% Tax Rate:Capital income in Sweden is generally taxed at a flat rate of 30%.However, private residential sales benefit from an adjusted scale where only twenty-thirths ($\frac{22}{30}$) of the net profit is subject to tax.This mathematically yields an effective flat tax rate of 22% on net profits for both residents and non-resident owners.Profits are calculated by subtracting the original purchase price, estate agent fees, and documented home improvements or staging costs from the final sales price.
Capital Gains Deferral (Uppskov): If you are a tax resident in Sweden and selling your primary residence to purchase a new home within Sweden or the EU/EEA, you may qualify to defer paying tax on your capital gains. There is no longer an annual interest charge on deferred tax amounts, making this a highly favorable tool for reinvesting equity into the Swedish market.
Skatteverket’s Automated Audit Line: The Swedish Land Registry automatically reports all fastighet title transfers to Skatteverket. For citizens and registered expats, your capital gains calculations will arrive partially pre-filled on your annual tax return (Inkomstdeklaration).
3. Strategy: Bidding Transparency and Reaching Expats Abroad
Successfully selling a Swedish asset requires navigating a cultural environment built on speed, absolute transparency, and digital efficiency.
The Open Bidding System: Property auctions in Sweden move rapidly. Once an open house concludes, the estate agent runs a transparent, real-time bidding process, usually via SMS or an online portal. Bidders’ identities and their respective offers are logged transparently. While the seller is not legally forced to accept the highest bid, this rapid, open-market system frequently drives competitive premiums within days of listing.
The Global Platform Advantage: Local Swedish brokerages rely heavily on localized portals like Hemnet. While effective for domestic buyers, these platforms fail to capture the massive influx of international tech executives, multi-national corporate relocations, and high-net-worth expats moving to Stockholm’s booming hubs. Listing your asset on a global digital marketing platform circumvents regional silos. It places your premium villa or sleek apartment directly in front of foreign buyers, international investment funds, and returning expats who possess the liquidity to close transactions quickly and seamlessly.
