GIPE stands for Gestores Inmobiliarios de Promociones y Edificaciones. It is one of Spain’s most respected professional associations for real estate agents. Established in 1964, GIPE requires its members to demonstrate in-depth legal and technical expertise in Spanish property, uphold a strict code of ethics, and carry professional indemnity insurance.

A Legacy of Professionalism
Founded in Seville in 1964, GIPE was created to bring order, training and credibility to a then largely unregulated real estate sector. As Spain’s property market developed, GIPE played a key role in establishing professional standards and legal knowledge among real estate agents. Over the decades, the organisation expanded across the country, offering educational resources, certification, and a professional network for its members.
A new era for GIPE
In 2023, GIPE underwent a historic transformation, modernising its governance structure and expanding its mission to serve a wider network of property professionals. It enhanced its digital platform, streamlined training, and adopted a more inclusive, forward-thinking approach to support agents in today’s evolving property market. This renewal reinforced GIPE’s role as a leading voice for professionalism in Spanish real estate.
