  • I am on this daily!

    I like the email reminders that are top of mind as I am looking for a place to rent or buy in Italy. I like to be able to draw a map zone as well as the details of each listing. I love that it has easy translation to English and the user interface is easy to navigate.
  • A Wonderful App

    I want to thank Idealista for coming up with such a wonderful App for looking for homes, apartments, condo’s and rentals. The most important thing to know is that it is not their fault if someone does not get back to you, it is the responsibility of the agent or owner to reach out to you after your request of interest. I love the Idealista app and I am on it everyday HAPPY NEW YEAR 2022

  • Excellent resource for home hunting

    Just be very aware that there are many fake apts on here. Never give money until you or a representative have physically been in the unit to validate whether it is real. Requested rents that are 20-30% below the market are more at her than a cause for celebration. Be cautious. Don’t lose your head over the perfect place, and it’s so cheap! Red flags are blowing.....

  • Furnished vs unfurnished

    I love this app. Once you set your default settings and mark the map, you can see a lot of apartments that might fit your needs. But I wish there were a filter for furnished vs unfurnished apartments. Most of the apartments are shown with furniture. You have to look at a lot of furnished apartments before finding those that are unfurnished… if that’s what you’re looking for. In most cases, I believe furnished apartments are intended to be rented as shown. A few have minimal furniture, and it’s hard to know whether the furniture can be removed. If you’re looking for an unfurnished apartment, you have to look through a lot of furnished apartments before finding the few unfurnished options.

  • Easy to use

    I like the app, and it’s relatively simple to use. I would prefer if I could get the entire country in my “draw” on the map as my filters would suppress most of the listings. Also, I have not heard back from my request to a company on one of the listings I’m interested in, however , I’m fairly certain that has nothing to do with the app.

  • Great app for US buyer

    I have found this App very useful to evaluate the market in Spain, make a short list of properties to evaluate during our next buying trip. It would be helpful to have the App provide average prices for closed sales in each neighborhood.
  • Planning to Retire

    We’re planning to retire to Italy in a few years. This site has been great for helping us decide which general areas and villages we like. This will help us narrow our search when we need to find a long-term rental in earnest. It also encourages us, knowing that there are beautiful homes and villas in our future. Lots of good search options available. Pleas consider adding France to the countries you list for. We have friends who are planning similarly to us.

  • Easy to use !

    I’m an international student looking for housing in Spain and this app has really given me great access to many potential apartments. The descriptions are neat and detailed on the listings which makes it simple to understand. The amount of pictures available for most listings is exactly what I need to see when looking for a place I want to call home .

  • Best app for finding your next home

    We found our home through Idealista and don’t think we would’ve done so as quickly as we did without. It’s an essential tool to research areas, learn what market prices look like, and short-list before hitting the pavement and viewing properties.
  • Crashes, slow, buggy

    While I like the app for the amount of listings, and some of the features, information takes FOREVER to load...the app often crashes...it’s hyper sensitive, because when I try to resize the map to look into a specific area, the app spins into reloading the listings, which is super annoying and takes forever again to reset. I wish that once I pressed on a listing, it would highlight the dot for its location. Other apps, such as Imovirtual, loads ten times faster!
