Avantum is a real estate company comprised of industry experts, specialised in acquisition, design, redevelopment, renovation and property management in Andalucia, particularly along the Costa del Sol.
We work in all sectors and have developed expertise in the residential, hotel and serviced apartments sectors, especially in the luxury/high-end category.

Avantum was created by an amalgamation of like-minded, dynamic industry professionals keen to push boundaries and create innovative designs without compromising practicality, durability and function.
As a “one stop shop”, we have created a unique client experience, where legal, design, cost, management and profit considerations are brought together under one roof. Our clients find we are better able to understand their needs and thus ensure the best solution to their requirements.
At Avantum, we recognize that understanding our clients is core to delivering the right strategies. All our team members have worked together for years and we have a family like relationship. We consult each other on every project and we treat every project as a unique proposition. We pay particular attention to prompt communication, efficiency and fulfilling our promises.

MARTIN NIELSEN
MANAGER
Entrepreneur of Swedish origin with MBA studies in international marketing at Boston College, USA (1998) and Lund University, Sweden (2001), Postgraduate in International Hotel Management at Les Roches, Switzerland (2001) and Postgraduate in Foreign Trade in Barcelona, Spain (2010).
During the last 15 years, Martin has dedicated his profesional area to the real estate and hospitality sector.
After having graduated in 2002 from prestigious Swiss International Hotel Management School of ‘Les Roches’ in Marbella, he took part of the pre-opening of the 5 star GL Hotel Resort of Samui Peninsula in Koh Samui, Thailand as a Trainee to the Hotel Manager. 1 year of unique experience that enhances skill and broadens the mind. Once back in Spain, and being the country immersed in an economic book due to the real estate bubble, Martin started to take courses in land planning and urban architecture in Málaga in order to start a real estate consulting bureau to assist developers in the sales and purchase of land and buildings in Málaga and Costa del Sol. This gave Martin an awareness and reputation amongst developers and investors that later become the settle ground for Urban Living.
In 2012 Martin created Urban Living, the first serviced apartment brand in Malaga. It was an outstanding success with over 50 apartments and a small boutique hotel under management. In 2015, Martin sold the business to start Avantum. Martin decided he wanted to be involved in projects from design upwards in order to create a unique vision for clients, a vision of project design and development so attractive that an Avantum project becomes their only option for a new development.
