What tardiness

Apologies for the lack of effort on my part in updating the blog this last two weeks buy to say that I have been occupied with the 'mother' of all resales which completed last Friday would be an understatement. Regardless here we are starting over once again.
Moving on I note that the BBC ws showing another documentary - Real Story: Pain in Spain. The familiar problem of people buying (being sold) property which did not have all the correct licenses in place. Read more on the BBC website here.
I can't really stress how important it is to use a reputable agent (you know where we are!!!!) that can help you along the way.
Anyway thats all for now.

In Tempo defies the crisis

Image
The skyscrapers keep getting higher in Benidorm and three years from now, the highest residential block in Europe will be finished. After one year of moving earth and laying foundations, to a depth of 17 metres, the In Tempo building now boasts signs of life and the first three floors are visible. Last week, a mini celebration took place to commemorate the first anniversary of work starting on the site. Also worth celebrating is the fact that nearly 50% of the project is sold already, and that in the current economic crisis. The dimensions of the skyscraper are impressive, with it due to reach 200 metres in height, distributed over 55 floors and two towers that will be joined by a central piece in where the most expensive properties will be located (approx 6000 Euros per square metre). Such properties will cost 2.4 million euros. The current highest residencial block in Benidorm is Torre Lugano which actually rises 220 metres above sea level as it is located on the side of the Sier...

Villajoyosa - a hidden gem

Villajoyosa has recently been picked up by some of the major travel publications and highlighted as one of the places to be in 2024, in fact the number one place to be! I will share the links to the articles below so you can read for yourself, but it has spurred me on to write a few words too about this pretty little town located in between Alicante and Benidorm. What strikes you first is that Villajoyosa is a busy little town which has retained a lot of its character, with the colourful fisherman cottages that line the seafront being the perfect example - the different colours allowing the fishermen to navigate home quickly after long stretches, or perhaps when the weather wasn't so kind. Villajoyosa has several sandy beaches, with the Playa Centro and Playa Torres being very popular and personal favourites of mine, plus some stunning bays to explore, including Bol Nou, Paradis and Racó de Conill. Being a fishing village, the food as you would expect is superb, I have ate fish a n...

I want to ask you a favour.....

Hello and let's start off with Happy New Year! I wanted to reach out to you today as I need a favour. At some stage over the last 20 years (and when I put that in writing I think to myself, wow, that has gone really quick) we at Ultimate Homes have helped you purchase and also perhaps sell a home in the wonderful Costa Blanca region of Spain. So, how can you help? I have a  You Tube channel  which currently has about 160 subscribers and I am looking to grow this channel in 2025. And as we have done business in the past, I want to ask if you were looking to buy in this area again, what are the most important points that you would absolutely have to know. My plan is then to post new content on You Tube and the  Ultimate Homes Blog , and of course if you reply to this, you will get a mention -  plus an invite to a coffee with me when you're next in Altea. Respond here Thank you again for working with us and for taking the time to read this email, and I'm really loo...
