The person
behind OTS &
Partners.

Nearly five years advising buyers and sellers on the Costa del Sol. Estonian roots, a home in Estepona, and an approach built on honesty rather than inflated promises.

The story

From the coast
of Estonia to the
Costa del Sol.

Maarja grew up on the Estonian coast — the kind of upbringing that gives you a deep connection to the sea and to the pace of life that comes with it. She came to the Costa del Sol over a decade ago, originally to work in luxury hospitality, and never left.

After years building relationships across Estepona and Marbella, she moved into real estate. What she found was an industry full of agents who overpromised, overvalued, and disappeared once the paperwork was signed. She decided to work differently.

OTS & Partners was founded in late 2025 with a simple premise: treat every client the way Maarja would want to be treated herself. Honest valuations based on real data, not on what the seller wants to hear. Qualified buyers, not curious tourists. And genuine after-sales support — because the work doesn't end at the notary.

The name comes from Maarja's surname — Ots — which in Estonian means "tip" or "edge". Fitting, perhaps, for a business built at the edge of Europe, looking out over the Mediterranean.

What we stand for

Three things that never change, regardless of the market.

i.

Honesty in valuations

We tell you what your property is actually worth on the current market — not what you'd like to hear. An overpriced property sits, loses momentum, and eventually sells lower than it should have. We'd rather start right.

ii.

Qualified buyers only

Every buyer we bring to view a property has been financially pre-screened. Your time — and ours — is too valuable to spend on viewings that were never going to close. We filter before we schedule.

iii.

After-sales follow-through

The sale doesn't end at the notary. We help buyers navigate NIE, utilities, community fees, renovation contacts and local services. For sellers, we manage the handover. We stay in the picture until everything is settled.

How it works

Every client, one advisor. From first call to closing.

1

We meet for a coffee

No forms, no pressure. Maarja listens first — what you're looking for, your timeline, your concerns. This conversation shapes everything that follows.

2

We build a strategy

For sellers: an honest data-based valuation and a marketing plan. For buyers: a curated shortlist of properties that genuinely match your criteria — not just what's available.

3

We handle the detail

Negotiations, lawyers, NIE applications, mortgage introductions, inspections — Maarja coordinates every piece and keeps you informed at every step.

4

We stay after closing

Keys handed over is not the end. After-sales support — utilities, community registration, trusted local contacts — is part of the service, not an add-on.

I don't want clients who chose me because I was the most optimistic about their asking price.
I want clients who chose me because I was the most honest.
