Am going to have a look a places to rent from October onwards via a quick 1 week visit to the Granada area in September.
My GF speaks a bit of rough Spanish but am wondering whether it might be better to look for an English agent or a Spanish agent.
I may be wrong but I’m presuming most English agents will add on an English “sales pitch tax” that might make it more expensive. I also heard that some are charging 1 month’s rent as fees when the landlord should really be paying this.
Any thoughts?

Also, are there agents on the main streets in Granada or is it necessary to phone a lot of them in relation to adverts and meet near the place?

Are you only looking in Granada province? We have a couple of rentals available. They belong to friends so you will deal directly with them and not through an agent. One is in Malaga province at 200 euros pcm the other near Seville at 450 euros pcm. Both exclude bills. If you want more info please let me know.

Yes, just Granada (La Zubia, Monachil, Armilla) and further south on the coast, say La Herradura, etc.
