Peter Ablij | Personal Property Advisor | Costa Blanca South - Costa Calida North | Baerz Property Finders & Advisors

Meet Peter Ablij

Peter is a Personal Property Advisor whose roots in the Zaanstreek region of Noord Holland and deep ties to Spain bring a distinctive balance of authenticity, empathy, and expertise. He serves clients along the Costa Blanca and Costa Cálida, guiding them thoughtfully through the process of finding and securing homes that provide true sanctuary. With a background in commercial business, mediation, and years in the Spanish real estate market, Peter’s approach is understated, genuinely approachable, and grounded in the belief that trust and open communication are everything. Clients consistently value his ability to listen, adapt, and put their needs first, ensuring each journey is both personal and seamless.

A Foundation of Character

Growing up in a small Dutch village among siblings and immersed in a family dedicated to service, Peter learned the virtues of honesty, reliability, and patience from an early age. His father’s work as a general practitioner and mother’s support in the family pharmacy demonstrated both hard work and a compassionate, attentive approach to community, a model that shaped Peter’s values. Today, those formative influences continue to inform his empathetic outlook, proving that true partnership in property advisory begins with listening, keeping promises, and building long-term trust.

Defining Life Moments

Peter’s journey has been marked by both inherited values and life’s evolving perspectives. The presence of grandchildren now inspires him to look further toward the future, viewing each client’s search not only as a transaction but as a significant step in shaping the years to come. Experience has also taught Peter the importance of adaptability, recognizing that first preferences often change as needs evolve, just as one client discovered when a quest for a traditional Spanish villa transformed into the perfect beachside apartment. These moments of insight nurture Peter’s openness and creativity in guiding clients.

A Day in Costa Blanca

An ideal day for Peter unfolds slowly: sunrise hours spent tending his garden, nurturing the flavors and scents that soon inspire the kitchen. By midday, he’ll stroll to his village centre, relishing lunch beneath the Spanish sun and absorbing the gentle pace of local life. This daily rhythm is not just lifestyle, but a reflection of his conviction that place, community, and simple pleasures matter deeply, elements he weaves into every client experience in the Costa Blanca and Costa Cálida.

Professional Insight and Ethical Grounding

Peter’s formal training in commercial business and mediation, alongside decades of cross-industry experience, have honed his approach to challenges: always with calm, creativity, and attention to detail. As an API and RAICV-certified advisor, his work is built on a strong ethical foundation, blending legal and market expertise with genuine care. Peter and his team believe that being approachable, honest, and reliably present, without ever pushing, creates a more rewarding and secure journey for every client.

Clients and Services

Peter primarily advises Dutch, German, and Belgian clients, ranging from entrepreneurs to families seeking a tranquil retreat or investment along the Spanish coast. Each project is curated from start to finish: negotiation, relocation, off-market search, rigorous due diligence, and post-purchase support. Clients benefit from a robust network offering access to legal, tax, architectural, and lifestyle services, always tailored to the region’s character. In every interaction, Peter’s dedication is anchored in advocacy and patience, no pressure, just a commitment to find what truly fits.

Insider Knowledge of Costa Blanca and Costa Cálida

Peter’s favorite starting point for new arrivals is sampling the region’s best local cuisine, whether in a quiet village tapas bar or tucked-away lunchtime spot, these experiences immerse clients in the rhythm of daily life. The true character of the region, Peter believes, is best understood through taste, atmosphere, and an openness to each visitor’s interests, whether they hunger for sun, city, or the tranquility of nature.

Why Personal Property Advisory Matters

For Peter, the role of advisor is far more than sales, it is about partnership, honest feedback, and unwavering advocacy for each client’s goals. He believes that, particularly for HNW buyers, a trusted advisor must listen closely, anticipate needs, and offer critical guidance, even when it means challenging assumptions. Personal Property Advisory is about building enduring relationships, not just closing transactions.

What Clients Say

Clients consistently thank Peter for his honesty, dependability, and ability to think creatively when standard solutions fall short. Many highlight the approachable and patient way he navigates change and uncertainty, ensuring they are always supported and never pressured. His capacity to listen first and communicate clearly stands out as a hallmark of his service.

When I’m Not Advising Buyers...

Peter’s leisure hours are spent in his garden or kitchen, transforming fresh produce into chutneys, jams, and slow-cooked meals inspired by Indian and Indonesian traditions. These creative, grounding rituals anchor him in the region’s spirit and support the patience and attentiveness that define his client service.
