One of my potential clients for moving to Valencia, Chris Nation, gives his opinion of why he is thinking of moving to Spain from a UK point of view. Great insights into the thought process including;

Let me construct a metaphor for how I see Spain right now. Spain is like a good friend, highly cultured, sophisticated, attractive, colourful and spirited, who has emerged into the light of day after a terrible bender and is now staggering around virtually incapable of remaining upright, found to have financed the debauch with other people’s money and his children’s future and is in grave danger of ending up face down in the gutter.

You get the idea, flowery language and really funny. Take a look at Nick's Culture Spain blog.

Sometimes a property gets offered to be placed onto the books at Valencia Property and I seriously cannot believe the price, either one way or the other i.e, too high or so low! I have one on the site now (Among many other excellent places) which is a beach apartment for sale in Valencia just a two or three minutes walk from the beach for just 70k Euros. Two bedrooms and an excellent living room on the fourth floor without lift but not difficult stairs at a brilliant price

How to know when you have made a mistake in business.

Gone Fishing In The Wrong Pond

One of the major things that people come over to Spain for is the Spanish lifestyle. What is it that actually constitutes the Spanish lifestyle though? Is it the cafe society of being able to sit outside a bar in a pavement cafe with a "cafe con leche" or a "caña" while watching the World go by and doing some serious people watching? Is it the laid back attitude to life and the constant surprise of yet another local holiday due to the fiesta of some unknown saint in the rest of the country? Is it the chance to relax in the sun or even the ability to go into work every day in the sun giving people a more positive attitude to their work when they get there?

This week I have been searching out different properties from banks and also talking to some owners of houses already on the Valencia Property site. An owner of a house in Villamarchante has told us that they will consider any offers on the property below. The original price of this property was 285000 Euros back in the day. It is a nicely put together house in Villamarchante with four bedrooms, two reception rooms, open plan kitchen and two large terraces, one covered and one open on a 720m2 plot. There is a pool and storeroom as well as an outside kitchen and all just a couple of kilometres outside the town of Villamarchante.

There are many options for getting to Valencia apart from simply flying into Valencia airport as there are not that many flights from all parts of Europe. That shouldn't stop you from getting here though and in some cases you can get here in style. You can fly into Barcelona, Alicante or Madrid for example and then get a train, hire a car or even use the bus service to get to Valencia.

A video that I made last week taking you through the current situation in the Spanish Property Market, at least from my point of view. What is happening? Who is buying and what is the reaction?
