I bought my first flat in Spain in the mid 80’s without ever having visited the country, let alone seen the property. It made sense as an investment and whilst I wouldn’t recommend that anyone else should do the same it began a love affair with this wonderful country.

On our first visit to that apartment my wife and I decided that  we wanted more than holidays and decided that we were coming for good the first chance we got! We toured the country from one end to the other but in the end we settled in rural Andalucia and have never, ever, regretted the choice.

We began selling country property near Velez Malaga in the Axarquia area of Andalucia, southern Spain in the early days of the internet. It quickly became apparent that the typical internet client was knowledgable and well researched and always on the look out for a bargain! With this in mind the area we cover in Andalucia has changed and grown as we have boldly gone where no estate agent has gone before to find those special, undiscovered gems!

Today, as traditional destinations like Spain, France and Portugal become less affordable, many people are looking from choice or necessity at the so called “emerging markets” we too are now looking at other countries. We have two golden rules however;  we will only sell where we would want to live or holiday and we sell at local prices!
