Property
Sales
Many people enjoy the area so much that they
look to buy their own holiday home.
Indeed many do as we did, purchase a holiday
home and then decide to move here permanently.
This is something that we did over six
years ago and we are still loving the lifestyle and the
people.
We have a range of properties that are
available for purchase direct from the owners. This means that
the prices will be more favourable than if you went through a
traditional estate agent, on average a saving of 3% to 5%
Bargain Of The Week
Penthouse On Mijas Golf For
Sale
Price: ONLY
189,000 Euros
Direct sale from the owner - This is
our own apartment which until recently was our home. We have
now moved to a villa just outside Mijas Golf so our apartment
is reluctantly for sale.

This luxurious penthouse has two bedrooms,
two bathrooms, and was built to a very high standard in
2003.
Superb, quiet location with golf and
mountain views.
Two VERY private terraces that have the
sun from dawn till dusk.
Due to the orientation of the apartment you
can have sun, or shade, at any time of the day.
This apartment is the reason why the term 'Location, Location,
Location' was coined!
Forget the hundreds, maybe thousands, of apartments that are
listed in this price range, just remember that most of the
locations are deep within huge, noisy complexes, or on a busy
main road, or miles away from civilisation, or old and run
down...
This penthouse is one of a small number of quality apartments
at El Limonar de Mijas Golf. The urbanisation is small, only
126 apartments, nestled alongside the third tee of the famous
Los Lagos golf course.
There are no other buildings close enough to
overlook the two very private terraces, the area is peaceful as
the road alongside is only used by residents and visitors to
the neighbouring properties.
The west facing terrace has views over the
garden of a luxury villa immediately in front, then onwards to
the first, second and third holes of the Los Lagos course.
On this terrace you have sunshine right the way through until
after 9pm in the summer, and glorious sunsets!
The east terrace is accessed from both of
the bedrooms and receives the sun from sunrise up until around
2pm. This really is a fantastic place to enjoy a leisurely
breakfast...
Immediately in front of the east
terrace is a disused olive grove, now used for the grazing
of two retired white horses. This area used to have
building permission for five luxury villas but this
permission has now lapsed and is unlikely to be renewed in the
near future.
Over to the left is a large area of
countryside leading up to Mijas Pueblo and the mountains. This
is earmarked for a third golf course which is waiting for work
on the area's recycled water treatment plant to be completed
before the course is finished.
This means that El Limonar will then be
located between two quality golf courses, with views of
each!
The lounge is of reasonable proportions and is complete with a
large sofa bed and matching two seater sofa.
Terrestrial TV, UK Sky Satellite, Broadband
internet cabling and telephone line are installed
Lighting is through two ceiling lights with integral fans, a
godsend in the summer to keep the air moving and the room
comfortably cool.
The kitchen is American style in a dark wood finish. Though
compact it is complete with all the appliances required for
easy living. There is a large fridge/freezer, oven, hob,
extractor fan, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine. The
worktops are finished in a dark granite.
The bedrooms are of a generous size and are complete with built
in wardrobes providing plenty of hanging and drawer space.
Both bedrooms have patio doors leading onto the east terrace
with shutters to darken the rooms. The orientation means that
you wake to the early morning sun streaming in through the
windows, a beautiful way to greet the morning.
The bedrooms also have ceiling fans fitted which help to keep
the air moving in the warmer months.
There are two fully fitted bathrooms, the master bedroom being
en-suite, finished in a light coloured floor to ceiling marble
with matching marble floors. All fittings are by Roca
The master bathroom has underfloor heating for those occasional
cold days in the winter, a jacuzzi bath with a powerful
overbath shower, hand basin with a vanity unit below, a bidet
and a toilet.
The second shower room has a shower, basin, bidet and
toilet
Full climate control is installed with a Carrier dual air
conditioning and heating unit for the whole apartment.
The apartment also has an allocated parking space in the
underground garage, with a very dry, secure 12 sq mtr storage
unit immediately adjacent to it.
The property is being sold partly furnished if
desired.
Immediate access available.

Currency
Exchange
It is strange to find that
purchasers of property in Europe are always keen to negotiate a
good price on the house of their dreams, but then fail to
appreciate that great savings can be made by ensuring that they
receive the best exchange rate form Sterling to euros or visa
versa. When buying abroad, you’ll usually have to pay a
deposit, staged payments and/or the full purchase price. During
this process, you’ll be required to convert your British Pounds
to the currency of the country you’re buying in.
Since the exchange process is simply one
tiny aspect of the entire transaction, many buyers fail to
give it the attention it deserves and therefore make a
fundamental mistake.
Most buyers understand that the price of
currency fluctuates second by second, and they also realise
that banks add on a 2-5% profit margin when selling the
currency to you!
HOWEVER what many buyers do NOT realise
is that there are ways to purchase currency at a much better
rate, by buying at the right place and the right time. To save
£1,000’s on your currency exchange and transfer charges; call a
Currency Exchange Specialist, rather than using your high
street bank!
In most instances you will have a set
exchange rate in mind when you determine the cost of the
property that you want to buy. Generally, buyers find a
property, get the current exchange rate and base their decision
to buy at the price based on that day’s currency exchange rate.
If you’re very lucky, on the day you actually send your money
abroad, you may achieve your budgeted rate, or the rate you had
in mind.
Why lucky? Many buyers leave all their
currency purchases to the last minute and leave themselves at
the mercy of whatever the rate is at that time. Exchange rates
do fluctuate, much more than people realise, and the art is to
time your purchases so that your budgeted exchange rate is
achieved. But do you have the time to do this?
That’s where working in tandem with the
right currency specialist can be so beneficial. If you tell the
specialist what your budgeted rate is and details of the
payment schedule, they will have the time (and inclination) to
try and achieve the budgeted rate for you.
Resource: We recommend The Foremost Currency Group
for currency exchange and transfer services. They are the
only dealers with whom we work and we see them as an
integral part of our business. They cannot see into the
future, but they can prepare you for it. It is possible to
implement monitoring systems to protect a minimum exchange
rate. Depending upon the size of the transaction the
potential gain could amount to a very tidy sum, but no
matter what happens, you are always protected against any
negative exchange rate movements that could leave you out of
pocket. It is also possible to lock into exchange rates when
rates are especially beneficial. Our business partners at
The Foremost Currency Group, with a dedicated dealer
in Andrew Norton, can do this at no cost to you.
