Seize the day and buy safely and securely with Immo Carpe Diem

CARPE DIEM – seize the day – and that is exactly what owner of Immo Carpe Diem did in setting up this real estate company over 10 years ago in Torrevieja.
For Belgian born Lieven Pannecouque, the name was a natural choice for him and a mantra he believes in. Having lived a fascinating life; he was a captain in the Military Police in Belgium where he was shot by a sniper and also acted as a bodyguard for Margaret Thatcher during a visit to Brussels in the 1980s. He is a trained and qualified accountant, lawyer, translator and has a teaching diploma in French and History.
Lieven came to Spain 11 years ago as the milder climate improved his health. After working for another real estate company he was encouraged to set up on his own and Immo Carpe Diem was born. Over the years he has welcomed more than 500 buyers and a few of those have since sold and bought another property with Immo Carpe Diem.
The family-run business has offices in Belgium as well, truly serving international clients, offering the trustworthy, reliable service you would expect when buying a property on the Costa Blanca. Lieven uses his legal expertise to be able to offer a full service to customers, aiding them through the necessary paperwork from getting an NIE number, to notary services and even changing over the names on utility bills. With this comprehensive service done in-house, fees are substantially lower than most others.
With Lieven’s background in the Military Police, he prides himself on transparency and legitimacy, which has led to Immo Carpe Diem becoming one of the most reputable property businesses in the area. Equally, Lieven is just as selective in working with other agents and builders on new builds: “There are hundreds of estate agents in Torrevieja but I work with just five of them whom I trust and are reputable. In Belgium, you have to train for three years to become an estate agent so we try and use those strict regulations here.” He added: “I also like dealing in new builds now as there are greater controls and regulations surrounding them now so the quality is much better.”
Immo Carpe Diem serves from Moraira down to the Orihuela Costa and is constantly looking for quality properties to add to their books. For more information, visit the office in Calle Concordia, Torrevieja, open Monday to Friday from 10am-2pm and by appointment during the evenings and weekends.
