Mauro Martínez Schouten

CEO

Recognized for his strategic thinking and people-centered approach, Mauro leads Marenco Real Estate with a clear vision: to offer a highly personalized, discreet, and professional real estate service, supported by in-depth market knowledge and constant attention to detail. His way of working is driven by excellence, inspired by a service culture inherited from his family background and closely linked to the high-end hospitality sector.

Born in Marbella and deeply connected to the area, Mauro combines a solid understanding of the Costa del Sol residential market with a strategic perspective developed throughout his professional career. After training and gaining experience abroad, he returned to his hometown with a broader vision, focused on delivering real value to every transaction and every client.

For more than eight years, he held the position of Business Development Director within the family real estate company, a period during which he gained a comprehensive understanding of the real estate business — ranging from commercial strategy and marketing to operational management and relationships with both national and international clients.

Today, through Marenco Real Estate, his focus is on clients seeking more than just a property: expert, close, and trustworthy guidance, built on discretion, sound judgment, and a long-term vision.
