About us

The founders of NB-ESTATES are Carl Vorsselmans and Freyke Van Looveren. Both made a career switch from the police world to the Spanish real estate world. Carl spent many years as a commissioner with the Special Units and Freyke with the Antwerp Local Police. Under our blogs, you will find articles about this from De Pol (Antwerp Local Police), De Gazet van Antwerpen, Het Nieuwsblad and other media outlets, In addition, our office has a recognition number with the IPI (501511). This is necessary to practise the profession of estate agent on Belgian territory. In Spain this is not regulated, which means that anyone can practice the profession. With us, this way there always remains an important connection with Belgium. In the meantime, we have grown considerably and can help and support you in the most desirable Spanish regions! Our team is young, dynamic and always ready to assist you in the best possible way. Typical is our long-term vision, which translates into a careful and strict selection of real estate opportunities. We will not add any projects to our portfolio that have not been positively screened in terms of bank guarantees, permits, reliability and finish. Our goal is to find your dream home and provide complete guidance from A to Z. This long-term vision is very important to our company. We gain much more from a satisfied customer, than from a quick sale. Achieving your satisfaction is also in our interest; we cannot imagine a better ambassador of our company than a satisfied customer.

OUR CUSTOMER REVIEWS

Feel free to ask us for references from customers who have bought their dream home through us in Ibiza, Tenerife, Costa Calida, Costa Blanca and Costa del Sol

Notre offre

Our offer is spread over several regions, allowing us to guide you in a neutral way and show you what really suits you! Together with our professional staff, we ensure that everything is taken care of before, during and after the purchase. And at all times in your native language.

In front of

Before coming on site, we try to meet you at one of our offices, info days or webinars. It is very important for us to know your wishes and expectations.

We also provide you with information on the possibilities, the purchase costs, the buying process, tax obligations and much more. It is also very important to clarify beforehand what budget you want to spend on your dream Spanish home. So inform yourself well in advance with your house bank. That way, we can work specifically on site and you avoid any frustrations afterwards if you are unable to proceed with the purchase of that one particular dream home.

During the day

Having informed you fully and clearly, your arrival will be carefully prepared. On site, we take our time for you. It is important that you carry out a targeted market study with us of the offer and that you get to know the area.

Once you have found your property, we coordinate the entire administrative purchase process. In full transparency and trust, the contracts will be drawn up and we will accompany you to the notary where the transfer of ownership will take place.

After

In Spain, things work a little differently... At the notary, you become the proud owner, but after this, there are still many very important administrative obligations to be fulfilled. Don't worry, we will guide you professionally and you don't have to do anything yourself.

In addition, you can continue to count on us even after your purchase. We will be happy to help you and advise you on practical matters. (such as internet, furniture, rental company, etc.). Our after-sales service is one of our greatest assets.

Albert van der Werf from the Netherlands and his partner Monika Telkes set out to find a holiday home in Southern Europe, without deciding in advance exactly where it should be located. Italy, Portugal and various destinations in Spain were all considered. What they did have a clear idea of were the requirements their ideal location needed to meet.

A spontaneous visit to the NB-ESTATES office in Antwerp eventually brought the Costa Blanca into the picture. With personal advice and guidance on the ground, they refined their choices step by step. The result: a beautiful apartment in Alicante.

“The cooperation and guidance were fantastic.”

From 1 October 2026, several traffic rules in Spain will be amended and tightened. Particular attention is being given to the protection of cyclists, pedestrians, motorcyclists and users of electric scooters. There are also changes for motorists and motorhome drivers. Do you live in Spain, own a second home here or regularly travel on Spanish roads? Then it is important to be aware of these changes.

The changes form part of a reform of Spain’s Reglamento General de Circulación (General Traffic Regulations) and are set out in Royal Decree 518/2026. The regulations are being adapted to changing mobility in Spain, with additional emphasis on the safety of vulnerable road users. Some rules are entirely new, while other existing requirements are being tightened or clarified.

What changes from 1 October 2026?

  • Stricter rules when overtaking cyclists and other vulnerable road users
  • A mandatory emergency corridor for emergency services in traffic jams
  • Extension of seat belt requirements for certain professional drivers
  • New requirements for motorcyclists, including protective gloves and closed footwear
  • Tighter rules for cyclists and greater protection in urban areas
  • A minimum age of 15 and compulsory helmet use for electric scooter users
  • Clearer rules on parking motorhomes
  • Greater protection for pedestrians and children around schools
  • New and tightened rules concerning visibility, traffic lights and driving in snow

On 29 and 30 August, NB-ESTATES was present at the 24 Hours of Zolder alongside NGT Racing and VR Racing. A partnership we are particularly proud of, crowned by two fantastic results: an overall victory for NGT Racing and second place in the GT Sport class for VR Racing by NGT Racing.
