About Ayvan

A company built around one shared result.

Ayvan brings together project leadership, more than twenty years on the ground in Spain and an engineer’s eye for construction. One team takes each home from purchase to sale, and is paid only from the profit it creates.

Our name

An ayvan opens a house to the light.

In Persian architecture, an ayvan is the vaulted hall at the front of a building: open on one side, framed by an arch, the place where a house meets the light and the world outside. We chose the name because it describes what we do with every home: open it up, bring the light back in and let it be seen again.

Ayvan was founded by Kevin Babaei to give private investors a direct way into Marbella property. The capital buys a real home, one team rebuilds and sells it, and each investor chooses a fixed income of 12% a year or a 50/50 share of the net profit.

Behind each project is an experienced team. Sasan Rezazadeh runs the work on the ground in Spain, Behrooz Rajabifar brings construction engineering discipline, and our own lawyers and specialists handle every phase inside the company, from finding the property to the legal work and the sale.

Values

Four promises we can actually keep.

Every commitment is written into your contract. These are the ones about how we work.

Aligned, by design

We earn from the result of our projects, after every cost. If a project earns less, so do we.

Numbers before decisions

Every opportunity comes with its price, full budget, timeline and risks, in writing, before you commit a euro.

One team, every phase

Finding the property, the works, the legal side and the sale are all handled inside Ayvan, by our own people.

Reported, not promised

Monthly reports with photos, progress and spending against budget, so you always see where the project stands.

The team

The people who run your project.

Three people, three disciplines, one project file. Each brings something the others rely on.

Founder & project lead

Kevin Babaei

Kevin built Ayvan around a simple idea: an investor should see exactly where every euro goes, and the people running the project should only earn when the investor does.

Kevin is a multilingual entrepreneur and project leader. He turns Marbella property into profitable investments by managing the whole chain: finding undervalued homes, analysing each opportunity, redesigning and renovating with his own construction team, then marketing and selling the finished home.

He runs every project like a product owner: detail-oriented, demanding on quality and strict on cost and time, because a longer project is a more expensive one. He also builds the digital tools and automation behind the business, so investors get clear reports and every euro is accounted for.

I only earn when the project earns. That keeps my interests exactly where yours are.

Head of projects, Spain

Sasan Rezazadeh

Sasan is the person on the ground. From the first viewing to the day the keys are handed over, he runs the project in Spain.

With more than twenty years of experience in the Spanish property market, Sasan knows how homes are really bought, rebuilt and sold here: which streets hold their value, what a building will need once the walls are opened, which trades deliver on time, and how a finished home should be presented to the buyers who are looking for it.

At Ayvan he leads the full project cycle in Spain: sourcing and viewing properties, negotiating the purchase, coordinating architects, licences and contractors through the renovation, and managing the marketing and the sale. His experience is why our estimates start from what the market actually pays, not from what a spreadsheet hopes for.

Investors value him for what his partners value: he is calm under pressure, direct about problems and present on site.

Construction & engineering

Behrooz Rajabifar

Behrooz brings an engineer’s discipline to every renovation: catch the expensive problems while they are still on paper.

Behrooz is the founder and construction manager of Behfar Building, a renovation and construction company in Newmarket, Ontario, serving homeowners and businesses across the Greater Toronto Area. He has twelve years of experience in civil engineering and construction management, across residential and commercial renovation.

His way of working is the one we want on every Ayvan project: review the structure, the systems and the budget before work starts, plan the sequence of trades, and record every change in writing so that cost and quality never drift quietly.

At Ayvan he supports the technical review of each building before purchase, the renovation scope and budget, and the quality standards the work is held to.
