With the European housing market stagnating, it seems that more and more home-owners are choosing to renovate their properties in Spain, instead of trying to find a new one.
Acccording to Ted Jones, one of the most respected British builders on the Costa del Sol, he has seen a huge upsurge in the number of clients seeking his services for renovation projects on the Costa del Sol.
Of course, many of the best-located properties in Marbella and the Costa del Sol in general were built over 10 years ago, and with many being used as 2nd homes or rental properties, some are now looking a little tired and shabby. So instead of taking a hit and trying to sell in a depressed housing market, many owners are simply investing in updating their properties – new kitchens, bathrooms and flooring seem to be the most popular updates.
Although I actually bought a property in Marbella recently, I knew that it needed a lot of work to return the house to its former glory. Located on a stunning ´pueblo´ style development on the Golden Mile in Marbella, the house had not been touched by its former owner for 27 years, so it consequently needed a new kitchen, new bathrooms, new floors, new windows, re-wiring, and a substantial lick of paint.
I have to say that Ted and his team were superb, completing the work on time (within 6 weeks!) and on budget….almost to the penny. They were also a pleasure to deal with, and have honoured their commitment to fixing those small snags that always crop up a few weeks after completion of the project.
If anyone needs a good builder on the Costa del Sol, just get in touch with me and I will pass on the details to you.
