Buying & Selling Finance & Legal Lifestyle Property Management Renting  

Well, I´ve finally done it. It´s all signed, sealed and (not quite) delivered.

I am now the proud owner of a 3 bed townhouse on Lomas del Marbella Club Pueblo, located on the Golden Mile between Marbella and Puerto Banus on the Costa del Sol.

I had been trying to find a property that offered a little character and charm, yet without sacrificing the location. Of course, I also wanted a great deal.
People have told me that I got myself a bargain. I managed to shave over €250,000 off the original asking price, and the property was valued last month at over €100,000 more than the price I paid…….but the down side is that the house needs a lot of work – new kitchen and bathrooms, new windows (15 of them!), repainting, re-wiring, AC, Sky, alarm etc etc.

The builders are in there now, hacking down walls, repositioning doors, and generally creating chaos, so I´m trying to keep my distance…which is very difficult by the way!

I´ll let you know how the renovation goes, and treat you to some ´before and after´ shots once the place is finished.

I just hope all the pain is worth it!
