Why Background Properties?
We are an API-certified, professional company representing more than 40 leading national and international real estate agents. Say goodbye to having multiple agencies come over to list your property. We guarantee that your property will receive the maximum marketing exposure in order to make sure it is presented to every potential buyer!
Our approach is unique, reliable and very simple. Once one of our team members has visited your property and professional pictures are taken, your property will be added to our database and published by the real estate agencies that we represent, which will each use their own network to find the right buyer for your property as soon as possible.

Meet the team
We are a family-run business active on the Costa Blanca since 2017 and ever since in expansion.
Background Properties was started by Filip Van Horenbeeck who, with his years of experience as a sales manager in a leading Belgian company, has used his commercial experience to launch a new concept in real estate sector on the Costa Blanca. Offering a unique service to both estate agents and owners!
Two years later, his daughter Anouk joined the company. Her language skills allowed her to speak to owners and estate agents in their first language, which immediately created trust and smooth cooperation. With growing success, Cristian joined the team in 2022. Thanks to his education in administration, finance and management support, as well as his internship with an estate agent in Dénia, he brought just the right knowledge to professionally support the company. In addition, Cristian brought his passion for photography to the company. Both he and Anouk obtained their photography certificates and are officially registered drone drivers.
