About Simple House

Simple House was founded by Mark Vrijman, a Dutchman who traded the grey skies of the Netherlands for the Mediterranean sun over a decade ago. Since settling on the Costa Blanca in 2016, Mark has built Simple House on one principle: buying a home in Spain should be straightforward, personal, and enjoyable.

With more than 1,500 satisfied clients, Simple House has earned its reputation by listening first and acting fast. Mark and his team take the time to understand what you're truly looking for — then deliver exactly that, without the runaround. It's a simple approach, and it works.

When he's not matching families with their dream property, you'll find Mark on the dance floor perfecting his bachata and salsa, walking the coastline with his dog Freddy, or sharing a coffee with the neighbours. That same warmth and energy is what every client experiences from the first conversation to handing over the keys.

At Simple House, we believe that finding your home should feel as good as living in it.

Mark Vrijman — Founder & Lead Agent

Mark founded Simple House in 2018 after spending years navigating the Spanish property market himself — first as a buyer, then as someone who couldn't stop helping friends and family find their place in the sun. What started as a favour quickly became a calling. Originally from Utrecht, Mark moved to the Costa Blanca in 2016 and never looked back. He runs Simple House with a philosophy borrowed from his Dutch roots: be direct, be efficient, and don't waste anyone's time. Clients often remark that Mark has a knack for reading people — within one conversation, he seems to know exactly what they're looking for, sometimes before they do. Outside of work, Mark is a familiar face at the local salsa and bachata nights in Jávea and Dénia, where he's known for never sitting out a song. His golden retriever Freddy has become something of an unofficial office mascot, often joining property viewings and winning over clients before Mark even gets a word in. On quieter days, you'll find the two of them on a long beach walk — Mark says that's where he does his best thinking.
