History of Drumelia Real Estate

Drumelia was founded in 2003 in Marbella by Sergey Sinichkin, a real estate agent since 1993. Due to his extensive list of high-net-worth individuals, Drumelia quickly positioned itself at the top of Marbella’s Luxury Real Estate Market, successfully growing until the real estate market crisis of 2008.

Like any company that survived this crisis, Drumelia had to be completely rebuilt, and the next years were very challenging. As the market slowly began to pick up, Drumelia slowly grew and positioned itself stronger in the high-end market of Marbella.

The Break Through

From 2010 to 2015, the company focused on re-establishing itself through excellence in service. This led to more sales through word of mouth, as all transactions were made through referrals from happy clients with no online presence. It was only in 2015 that the company decided to make significant changes in the direction of online marketing.

During the following years, 2015-2020, innovation was key and at the forefront of every strategic decision, leading to one of the best online presences on the market on Google and all social media channels, including YouTube.
This successful strategy solidified Drumelia as a high-end real estate company with an international clientele generated through our innovative online presence and a reputation built on decades of word of mouth.

Leading The Change

In 2020, Artur, who has been working in Drumelia since 2009, became CEO and Co-owner of the company, while Sergey decided to concentrate on sales. Both pursued their passions with this change.

From 2020 to 2025, the key strategy has been to increase the excellence of service through the creation of in-house departments for all client needs and to better support our sales agents so they can dedicate more time to our clients. This led to significant growth of the company and the incorporation of the following departments into Drumelia´s team: Listings, Exclusives, Marketing, Legal, Finance, Concierge, and HR, all led by key people of the company, some promoted within and others that joined as the company expanded.

A successful trajectory that was distinguished by winning the prize of Best Real Estate Agency in Spain in 2022, 2023, and 2024 at the International Property Awards.
