---

When you pay to advertise a property, you need to know exactly what you are getting. A useful property listing should give prospective buyers or tenants enough information to understand the property, assess its suitability and contact the owner or agent directly.

International Property Directory (IPD) provides a property listing platform for private owners, estate agents, brokers and developers marketing properties across international markets. Listings can include detailed property information, photographs, pricing and contact details, with additional options available where applicable.

This page explains the main features of an IPD property listing and what to check before choosing an advertising package.

Property Listing Features

An IPD property listing can provide space for the information buyers need when researching a property remotely.

• Property photographs: Upload up to 16 images to help show the property and its features.
• Property description: Provide an extensive description, with room to explain the property's characteristics and relevant details.
• Location information: Identify the property's location so visitors can assess where it is situated.
• Asking price: Display the advertised price to help buyers compare properties.
• Property details: Include relevant information such as property type, bedrooms, bathrooms, size and other available characteristics.
• Owner or agency information: Add your name or agency name and relevant contact details.
• Direct contact options: Depending on the listing fields used, include a telephone number, email address and website link.

The information entered into a listing determines how effectively it communicates the property to prospective buyers. Complete the available fields accurately and keep the details up to date.

Up to 16 Property Photographs

Photographs help prospective buyers understand a property before arranging a viewing. An IPD listing can include up to 16 images, allowing you to show different rooms, the exterior and other relevant features.

Choose clear, current photographs that represent the property accurately. Where appropriate, include images of the main living areas, bedrooms, kitchen, bathrooms, outdoor space and any other features that distinguish the property.

Use the available images to provide a balanced view of the property rather than relying on a single photograph to communicate everything a buyer needs to know.

Detailed Property Descriptions

A property description should explain more than the number of rooms or the asking price. It can provide context about the layout, condition, features and practical characteristics that help a buyer decide whether to make an enquiry.

IPD supports extensive property descriptions, giving owners and agents room to explain relevant details without having to reduce the listing to a few short sentences.

Useful information may include:

• The property's layout and accommodation.
• Interior and exterior features.
• Condition and any relevant renovation information.
• Outdoor space, parking or other facilities where applicable.
• Known information about the property's location and surroundings.
• Any important conditions or limitations that prospective buyers should understand.

Descriptions should remain accurate, relevant and factual. Avoid unsupported claims about planning permission, rental returns, investment performance or other matters that have not been verified.

Location, Price and Property Details

Buyers often compare properties across several locations before deciding which ones deserve closer attention. A listing should therefore make the basic facts easy to find.

Provide the correct location, property category, asking price and other relevant details. Complete the available property fields so that buyers can better understand what is being offered and use the site's search options to narrow their choices.

Your Contact Details and Website

A property listing should make it straightforward for an interested buyer or tenant to identify the person or business advertising the property.

Depending on the fields you complete, your listing can include your name or agency name, telephone number, email address and website link. These details help visitors understand who is offering the property and how to request further information.

Check all contact details before publishing. If your telephone number, email address or website changes, update the information so that prospective buyers can still reach you.

Manage and Update Your Listings

IPD provides a self-service listing system that allows advertisers to manage their property information. You can make changes when required, including updating descriptions and correcting details, rather than having to treat the original listing as permanently fixed.

Keeping a listing current is particularly important if the asking price changes, the property becomes unavailable or new information needs to be added. Regular checks help ensure that prospective buyers are not relying on outdated details.

Advertisers should also review the applicable package terms to understand how listing access and publication are affected by the advertising period.

Property Search and Discovery

IPD's property search facilities allow visitors to narrow their research using available criteria such as location, property type, price range and other property details.

Completing relevant listing fields helps make the property easier for prospective buyers to assess and compare. Accurate details also help visitors determine whether a listing matches their requirements before making contact.

IPD's wider directory structure combines property listings with location and property-market information. This gives visitors additional context as they research destinations and consider different property options.

Can Your Listing Receive Featured Exposure?

Featured property options may be available for listings that require additional prominence. The availability, placement and terms depend on the applicable advertising option.

Before purchasing a featured option, check what additional exposure is included, where the listing may appear and how long the feature applies. Do not assume that enhanced placement is included in every standard listing package.

Review the current options on our IPD listing packages page.

Support When Adding a Listing

Setting up a listing involves entering property details, uploading photographs and checking that the information appears as intended. If you encounter a technical problem with the listing process, IPD provides a support route for assistance.

For help with account access, listing updates or image uploads, visit the IPD Help Desk.

What Is the Difference Between a Listing and an Advertising Package?

The listing is the property information presented to visitors. The advertising package determines the applicable commercial terms, which may include the advertising period, the number of listings covered and any additional features.

Before paying, check the complete package details rather than assuming that every available feature is included in every option.

For current costs and package information, visit:

• IPD listing prices — review the cost and advertising period.
• IPD listing packages — compare available advertising options.
• Advertise on IPD — learn about the advertising service.

Prepare Your Property Before Listing

Before creating a listing, gather your photographs, description, asking price, location details and contact information. Check that you have the right to advertise the property and that the information supplied is accurate.

If you are marketing property to overseas buyers, provide enough context for someone unfamiliar with the area to understand the property's location and characteristics.

Our guides to international property marketing and reaching international property buyers offer further guidance.

Property Listings in Puerto de la Cruz

Understanding the local market can help you decide which details to emphasise when advertising your property. Location, property type, condition and asking price all contribute to how a property should be presented.

Puerto de la Cruz, located on the northern coast of Tenerife in Spain's Canary Islands, offers a distinctive property market shaped by its coastal setting, established town centre and year-round appeal. Known for its waterfront, traditional streets, gardens and access to the natural landscapes of northern Tenerife, the town attracts people looking for a permanent home, a second residence or a property investment in the Canary Islands.

The local property market includes apartments, traditional houses, villas and other residential opportunities across different neighbourhoods. Buyers may be interested in living close to the centre and its amenities, finding a home with outdoor space, or exploring properties in quieter residential areas. Understanding the differences between locations and property types is an important part of making an informed decision.

Start with our Puerto de la Cruz property overview, then explore the guides below to research local locations, property prices, market conditions and opportunities for buying, renting or selling.

Puerto de la Cruz Property Market

Puerto de la Cruz offers a different setting from the larger resorts and newer developments found elsewhere in Tenerife. Its established urban character, local services, coastal attractions and residential neighbourhoods can appeal to buyers seeking more than a seasonal holiday destination.

Some buyers prefer the convenience of the town centre, while others may look for sea views, outdoor space, access to green areas or a quieter residential environment. Our guide to Puerto de la Cruz areas and locations can help you explore the different options.

For a broader understanding of local conditions, consult the Puerto de la Cruz property market guide.

Property for Rent in Puerto de la Cruz

The choice of property and rental arrangements will depend on availability, location, intended length of stay and the applicable regulations.

Browse property for rent in Puerto de la Cruz, or narrow your search to apartments for rent, houses for rent and villas for rent.

For an alternative approach, explore For Rent by Owner (FRBO), which focuses on properties offered directly by their owners. Before entering into a rental agreement, check the contract terms, deposit, permitted occupancy and any restrictions that may apply to the property or rental arrangement.

Buying Property in Puerto de la Cruz

Buying property in Puerto de la Cruz requires more than finding a home that appeals to you. Buyers should investigate the property's legal status, ownership, condition, associated costs and any restrictions that could affect how it may be used.

Our guide to buying property in Puerto de la Cruz provides a starting point for understanding the process. Buyers from outside Spain can also consult our international buyers guide for issues that may be particularly relevant when purchasing from overseas.

Allow for applicable purchase taxes, legal and professional fees, ongoing community charges where relevant, insurance, maintenance and other ownership expenses. Independent advice from a qualified Spanish property lawyer can help you verify the documentation and understand your obligations before signing binding agreements.

Investment Property in Puerto de la Cruz

Puerto de la Cruz may interest investors looking at residential property in Tenerife, particularly those considering long-term ownership or potential rental income. However, investment suitability depends on the individual property, its purchase price, running costs, location and the type of rental or resale strategy being considered.

Explore investment property in Puerto de la Cruz to consider the factors involved in assessing an opportunity. A realistic evaluation should account for maintenance, property management, taxes, periods without rental income and the costs associated with buying and eventually selling.

Do not assume that every property can be used for holiday rentals. Tourist accommodation rules, licensing and other restrictions can depend on the property, its location and the regulations in force in the Canary Islands. Verify the requirements that apply to the specific property before relying on short-term rental income as part of an investment plan.

Selling Property in Puerto de la Cruz

Selling a property successfully starts with understanding the likely audience and presenting the home clearly. Location, condition, layout, outdoor space, views and proximity to amenities can all influence how prospective buyers assess a property. Accurate information, good photographs and a realistic asking price help buyers evaluate what is being offered.

Our guide to selling property in Puerto de la Cruz introduces the main considerations for owners. More specific guidance is available for selling a house, selling an apartment, selling a villa and selling land.
