## How Agents Should Use It

- Convert all euro prices into US dollars for quick decision context.
- Treat monthly payment as a first-order filter, not an afterthought.
- Prefer coastal, walkable, family-friendly areas with restaurants and activities nearby.
- Favor properties that can work for winter and summer family use, not just peak-season rental yield.
- Require rental-license, community-rule, and local demand checks before relying on rental income.
- Be conservative on rural/rustic land, unclear title, coastal-law exposure, and missing documents.
- Optimize for lifestyle fit and rental yield together.

## Open Questions

- Comfortable monthly payment range in USD.
- Expected down payment percentage.
- Preferred airport access time from Malaga, Seville, Granada, or Alicante.
- Apartment vs townhouse vs villa preference.
- Minimum bedrooms and outdoor-space requirements.
- Whether stairs, pool access, or road safety should be hard filters because of young children.
