As autumn starts to turn the weather to a rather chilly temperature here in the UK, we love hearing the news from our friends in Spain about the many bright and sunny festivals taking place across the country rounding up their summer festival season.

I posted on our Facebook page last week about the fantastic festival that is ‘Cava Week’ in Barcelona, with the crowning of a Cava Queen, a Cava train journey and a whole week dedicated to the sparkly, golden drink.  We would happily join in those festivities any day, but that isn’t the only festival to happen in October in Spain.

The Feria de San Pedro de Alcantara , or the San Pedro Fair, started yesterday in San Pedro de Alcantara in Marbella, to celebrate the Patron Saint of San Pedro.  This festival turns the whole area in to a hive of activity with fireworks, concerts, and dancing.

The women and children dress up in their flamenco dresses and flowers in their hair and flamenco music plays as the residents and visitors sip wine and dine on tapas.  A parade is held throughout the streets bringing the Patron Saint to the people.  It is a fantastic festival, lasting until Monday, so a great weekend is on the cards for anyone in the area.

Flamenco and Fiesta!

San Pedro de Alcantara is a beautiful location with so much to offer, beautiful beaches and beach side Chiringuitos, fabulous festivals, and a visit to Bora Bora beach club is a must!

The properties in the Marbella are equally as special,  the area of Marbella is famous for being one of the most glamorous locations in Spain. It is a fair ground for the rich and famous and great for celebrity spotting. The port of Puerto Banus is a must see for visitors as it harbors some of the world’s biggest yachts and is surrounded by magnificent scenery.

Although, if the glitz and glamour isn’t for you then there are also beautiful, typically Spanish and unspoiled parts to this area too.

So if the weather is making you feel a little low, it’s maybe time for a trip to Spain for a fiesta or two….. there is nothing better to remove those winter blues! Browse at your own leisure through the latest properties in Marbella.

We want to make sure that you know everything that there is to know about purchasing a property, and so this is a great opportunity for us to meet people looking to buy and to pass on our message of buying safely, and telling clients what we recommend, and what we believe they should do.

 

Our feature properties are ready and waiting to be put out on the stand, and there are some outstanding properties in some beautiful locations on offer including Costa Blanca North and South, Costa Almeria, Murcia and Marbella.  A huge factor in what makes these properties so special is their very attractive prices, especially those properties that are a massive 50/60/70 % cheaper than when they originally appeared on the market.

 

 

If you’re looking for your own place in Spain then this is such a good time to get out and about and see what is on offer.  We will be there, and we look forward to introducing you to our service.  See us at stand C61, we’re looking forward to it!

Don’t panic Mr Mannering” was the cry in Dads army (the British comedy about the home guard) when the Germans were invading! Well the Spanish may well have to shout “no se preocupe mi amigo los británicos están llegando de Nuevo”  in short ” “don’t panic the Brits are coming“!!

It would appear we could be at the beginning of a “panic buying” situation if these figures continue to grow at such a rate, it would be sensible to speak with a UK agent to perhaps understand what’s going on! We recently reported that on the Costa Blanca the statement that “there is a shortage of available property” may have been difficult to digest but as nothing has been built for 5 years and the demand rising….no suprise in excess of 50 new developments are in progress on the Costa Blanca.

 

The latest report by the Times last weekend highlighted that overseas property sales to UK buyers are up by a huge 84% in Spain and 65% in France. In what is a snapshot from Currencies direct it is more evidence to the fact we Brits still have a passion for Spain.

 

So are buyers now faced with the dilemma of location v price? or resale or new technology build? Interesting one, communication is required, deals are still available but a lot of what was built in the boom period is in shall we say less than desirable locations.

 

Your Place in Spain the Spanish property specialists have a passion for all things Spain and offer clients a service that helps maintain that passion without forgetting the key things that make a smooth purchase. Their clients receive a portfolio of available property that fits or gets as close as possible to client’s requirements, so the client is looking at property they want to see not what someone wants to show them!

 

Should the client wish to purchase ,that process is smooth using local expertise with no surprises for the buyer.

 

With available Spanish properties on the Costa Blanca, Murcia, Costa Almeria and Marbella it is reasonable to accept they will have a dream home for everyone! Talk to them today on 0161 870 2276 or visit www.yourplaceinspain.com
