Shown By You Blog

It seems that spring weather has deserted us here in Spain, depriving us of those blue skies that look so good in the property details.

Hopefully the good weather will find us soon and attract all those lovely buyers looking for the perfect holiday home!

The latest property on our books, a lovely three-bedroom apartment on the outskirts of Roses, has simply stunning views to the mountains. Best of all, there’s a private pool only 50m away with a café and restaurant and you can spend the whole day there for 3 euros!

All the town’s amenities are within easy distance, as are the beaches and the gym.

Definitely worth a look. There’s an elevator in the building and the apartment is situated on the first floor.

There’s a new property on our books!

A lovely two-bedroom semi-detached villa with pool, garage and spacious garden in a quiet development just outside Castello d’Empuries. There’s even a one-bedroom apartment perfect for visitors.

Restaurants are within easy walking distance, there’s a playground for the kids and the streets are quiet. Definitely worth a closer look!

We now have a beautiful villa for sale at the top of the urbanisation Mas Bohera. This development is situated in the lovely village of Palau Saverdera which is a thriving community with schools, shops, restaurants etc. The surrounding scenery is stunning and the beach is only a short drive away.

Definitely one to come and look at!

We are changing our pricing policy with immediate effect.

As you know, we previously charged 995 euros when the property went on the market and the remaining 4,000 euros upon completion.

From now on, there is NO UPFRONT PAYMENT.

Sell your property for 4,995 euros (including VAT), all payable upon completion.

In case you haven’t seen it yet, there’s a new property on the books.

This 3 bedroom townhouse with garage and small mooring would make a great holiday home.

If you’d like to view it contact us any time.

To celebrate the launch of Shown By You we are offering all new customers a 10% discount this month.

How you choose to take your discount is entirely up to you, i.e. all discounted from the initial payment, all discounted from the final payment, or 50/50.

As you’re probably already aware, yesterday was a bad day for the stock markets and today promises to continue the downturn as the US returns to work after a holiday. Already being called the worst day for the global markets since 9/11, the falls have been triggered by an increasing fear of global recession.

At the bottom of all this is the crisis in the US sub-prime mortgage market. This site from the BBC offers a some good background information.

As far as the property market goes everything at the moment seems to be six of one and half a dozen of the other. One day we see articles warning (again) of property slow down, falling prices and impending crashes, the next day we hear optimistic news about steady increases and improved outlooks.

In the mean time we wait to see what will happen. Another drop in interest rates may be on the cards.

On behalf of everyone at Shown By You I would like to welcome you all to our company.

We hope that you will enjoying watching us grow in 2008 and will visit us frequently.

The coming months will see many exciting innovations so make sure you check back regularly for news and updates.
