Distressed property sales, discounted homes and greater transparency and compliance to planning issues in town halls are combining to breathe some life back into the Spanish property market. Never before has Southern Spain been such good value. It’s a destination that will always be desirable to Europeans and those living further a field, and now the investors and holiday home buyers that turned their backs on Spain for the past year or so are coming back.
Yet something remains the same now as it did a few years back; the absolute essential requirement for all investors and buyers to seek genuinely independent legal advice before embarking on any type of property or land investment.
