EWN talks with property expert Peter Bowerman about the Costa del Sol property market.
Living well in Spain is still very affordable, with good value property and food and drink prices below the E.U. average. Spain’s sunshine coast “Costa del Sol” offers one of the best microclimates on the planet (around 320+ days of sunshine a year) and some of the cleanest and safest beaches in the world. This coupled with its beautiful marinas, chic designer shops, traditional Spanish Tapa’s bars and glamorous seafront restaurants, all add up to an incredible lifestyle, keeping it Europe’s favourite destination to live or own a second home.
If you are looking for a property right now and would like professional advice on where you should buy or invest, my team and I are always happy to help guide you into the best areas and properties. As Master agents we offer you just about every property for sale on the Costa Del Sol, around 16,000 properties. We also have a panel of the best Foreign / English speaking Lawyers along the coast ready to assist you with your purchase or sale.
Although quieter on viewings, December & January are particularly good months to market a Spanish property to the rest of Europe during their cold wet winters. Especially over the Holidays / Christmas, when potential buyers have more time to search the internet for their dream sunshine home. Then from February the buyers start flooding back to the coast with their viewing lists already established, ready to buy up all the best deals.
So our valuers are out now, hungry to take on more properties ready for historically our busiest selling months of the year, between February to June. If you’re thinking about selling, or unhappy with your current agent’s performance, please contact us asap. We offer the best marketing packages on the coast and offer a lot of services in our standard fee, that other agents do not, such as our professionally presented walkthrough video tour of your property. These videos are then heavily promoted all over the world via digital marketing and social media. This is the most effective tool to sell properties nowadays. We also advertise your property in the more traditional ways like newspapers, magazines, radio and of course sending your property details to around 11,000 of our clients.
Peter is one of the most published Costa del Sol property experts in both the UK & Spanish press, having spent most of his working life as a professional Real Estate Agent and Valuer.
