EU Judges are now reviewing if it would be possible for the UK to cancel Article 50 and the withdrawal from Europe altogether. But every day brings new revelations so nobody really knows what’s going to happen, until it actually does. However, even if we consider that Brexit does go ahead and in the unlikely event that no agreement at all is made with Europe, Spain’s economy relies heavily on British tourism and second home purchases, so you can expect a continued close relationship between these two nations, just as it was before Great Briton (UK) even joined the EU. You can also expect stability for UK & Spanish expats and easy border crossings to continue. Regarding currency fluctuations we have a panel of the best London foreign exchange brokers on hand, that can set up forward contracts for clients to fix rates when they peak in the timescale leading up to a property sale, thus not getting any nasty surprises with a large fall in the rate just before completion. We recommend both buyers and sellers speak with our brokers as they will save a lot of money by securing the best rates on exchanging GB Pounds for Euros or Euros for GB pounds and they don’t cost you extra money in fact they can save you even more money by also offering free overseas transfers and beat the local bank exchange rates by some margin. Contact us if you would like one of our panel of brokers to call you and discuss how to secure the best rate for you.
PROPERTY HOT SPOTS Nueva Andalucia & Benahavis are in high demand, known for their classy restaurants and quality property, only a stone’s throw away from the bustling and glamorous Puerto Banus Marina, but much better value for money and far enough away not to be bothered by the influx of noisy tourists in the summer. Also the beautiful “La Cala de Mijas” beach town and surrounding areas are in high demand, ideally located between Malaga and Marbella. Tis charming relaxed beach village has been transformed and is now fused with a rising number of classy restaurants along the beachfront and its beautiful wooden boardwalk which clutches to the side of the Mijas Costa coastline.
BUYING ADVICE You really need to see a number of properties before buying, so you can get a real feel for what’s available in the different locations. It’s amazing how many clients are focused on wanting to be in a certain area, yet end up changing their mind halfway through their search process and buying in another area entirely. A Master Agent like ourselves can offer clients over 16,000 properties, just about every property for sale on the coast between Malaga to Gibraltar, and you only need to deal with one of our friendly staff to see everything, no need to contact lots of different Agents and try to juggle individual viewing appointments all along the coast. Tis not only makes life a lot easier for you but having just one Agent viewing everything with you, helps us understand exactly what you are looking for and gives you the best chance of finding your ideal property. Tere are no shortcuts, websites provide
good information but rarely portray the reality of the property or area. Many will disappoint, with some new developments displaying example photos of million euro penthouses, stating prices in the development start from just 300,000, but obviously with a 300k budget, the photos are not going to reflect in any way what you will actually be viewing. Also, in some cases photos simply can’t portray the true beauty, size or surroundings of a property, so you really do need to spend a little time explaining exactly what you are looking for so we can guide you into the right properties to view. Aſter we search through thousands of properties looking for the most suitable to your requirements and with our extensive knowledge of the coast and properties, we should be able to find your ideal property in under 10 viewings as long as your budget is realistic to your requirements.
SELLING ADVICE It’s a great time to list your property for sale, as Feb to May is traditionally our busiest selling time. Using a Master Agent also offers some major benefits to sellers, as we not only market your property throughout Europe and continually advertise your property on the best Spanish property portals and Costa del Sol property magazines, but we can also market your property through just about
“IT’S A GREAT TIME TO LIST YOUR PROPERTY FOR SALE, AS FEB TO MAY IS TRADITIONALLY OUR BUSIEST SELLING TIME.”
every Estate Agent on the Costa del Sol, via our 4 interagency property networks. Tis means you simply list your property with just us, deal with one of our team who will accompany every viewing, yet every Agent on the coast will be able to offer your property to their clients and we simply share our commission with them. No more worries about giving out lots of keys or dealing with lots of different Agents. So, if you are thinking about selling, I
recommend you contact us asap to list your property for sale, because even though we quickly load all our new properties on our websites and not just one, but four of the best Costa del Sol & Spanish property portals, it oſten takes a month before a new listing gets captured by popular internet search engines, such as google. Also we send our properties to the best property papers and lifestyle magazines 2-3 weeks before they actually go to print. So again, to make sure your property is featured and seen by thousands of potential buyers during the build up to the busy selling months, now would be the perfect time. Our Valuers are very busy every day taking on new properties, so contact us now for a free valuation and the best marketing packages on the coast. Whether you are looking to buy or sell on the Costa del Sol, we are waiting to show you what makes us stand out from all the other Agents and look forward to getting you moving during 2019.
