About us

 

Crown Construcciones SL was formed in 1970 by Roy Turner when Javea was a sleepy fishing village whose relaxed lifestyle and wonderful, healthy climate had been discovered by only a few visitors from Northern Europe. As the word got out and the demand for residential and holiday property grew, Crown expanded and Roy was joined by his son-in-law Miguel Bas Segarra, from a large Javea family and with a wide knowledge and understanding of the local people and the area in general.


In 1994 Miguel completed his studies at the University of Barcelona to be accredited as an 'Experto Inmobiliaria' ('Property Expert'), a qualification requiring continual study to ensure that both Miguel and Crown are familiar with changes in regulations affecting the industry and so can advise clients accordingly. As a member of the 'Asociación Profesional de Expertos Inmobiliarios', Miguel continued his formal studies and in 2001, in Valencia, qualified as a 'Perito Tasador de Inmuebles para Juzgados y Tribunales', able to provide property valuations for the courts and tribunals both in Spain and worldwide.


Roy Turner continued to manage the business until his 'retirement' and thereafter provided advice and direction until his death early in 2010, when the company passed to his family. Over 40 years after it's inception, Crown proudly enjoys a reputation for efficient professionalism and integrity as agents for property sales, construction and development.


As Estate Agents, Crown Properties' operations cover the whole spectrum from new and resale villas, town houses and apartments to plots, businesses, commercial premises and development projects. Whilst a large selection of property is advertised on this web site and in our window displays, this is just a proportion of that registered with us and we recommend that you contact us with details of your search to ensure that opportunities are not missed. We work with several other established and reputable agents in Javea to provide our clients with as wide a choice as possible, thereby reducing their need to approach multiple agents.


As Project Managers for refurbishments and construction, Crown Construcciones works with clients to ensure that they get what they want and what they pay for, from initial plans, through obtaining licences, construction, inspections, choice of materials, fixtures and fitting to final completion, 'snagging' and sign-off by both the client and the local authority. Crown is more than happy to provide examples of work completed and references.


All our staff speak English and Spanish as their first and second languages and we have translators available by appointment for several other European languages. You can find our offices in the El Arenal area of Javea, on the corner of Avenida de la Fontana and Avenida de Paris between the beach and the main road (See Map).


Get in touch or call in at our offices, we will be pleased to be of service.
