Get better results when marketing your property in Cabo Roig

6 05 2009

Like any product that is being marketed for sale, you need to entice viewers into your home from the off set and beginning with the look and feel of your property can make a huge difference to the amount of viewings that you will have – its a numbers game, the more viewings you have, the more likely you are to sell your property.

Simply repairs to your home can transform your property, a potential buyer that sees less things to do on a house is more likely to put your home ahead of others in their search for a property in Cabo Roig. Many home owners downfall is down to the fact that they do not want to do any more work or spend any more money on a property that they are moving away from, however – it could make a huge difference in your bid to sell your home.

Exterior suggestions:
- Keep your plot mowed, raked and watered.
- Tidy up plants / bushes / trees.
- Remove any toys, tools, trash items, etc. from your plot.
- Place all watering hoses and gardening equipment out of sight.
- Pathways / driveways should be clear of debris.
- Paint mailbox if needed and make sure street number or house name is legible.
- Clean/paint gates, fences, shed, etc.
- Clean, repair and paint all gutters and downspouts.
- Make sure garage door opens and closes with ease.
- Make the front of the property as welcoming as possible.
- Get a second opinion from a friend or neighbour.

Interior suggestions:
- Clean all windows (inside and out).
- Open windows to air your house.
- Make sure the floor is cleaning and clear of dust and smears.
- Clean everything in home from top to bottom (especially the kitchen and bathrooms).
- Never leave dirty dishes in sink.
- Fill and paint any nail holes.
- Make sure all doors are in excellent condition.
- Repair or replace loose wallpaper / a lick of paint never goes a miss – and you can’t go wrong with white as potential buyers see they can paint over white!
- Light a candle before showings to ensure the home smells good.
- Leave lights on when showing to make your property look more bright.
- Clear away any clutter than is unnecessary, arrange furniture and possessions to ensure maximum space.
- Make your home seem user friendly.
- Buy small accessories that do not cost much to make inside more welcoming.





Renting or flipping houses in Cabo Roig

5 05 2009

Buying property in Cabo Roig to flip or to rent out is something that you will have to work hard at and is not as simple as people would make it out to be. Many Estate Agents will lead you to believe that you will easily rent out your property for large sums of money during the summer months and make a good return on rental income on your newly purchased property.

This may have been the case some years ago when property in Spain was in such huge demand and potential buyers queued up to buy properties here, however now the market is flooded with rental properties, more than you can imagine – as many people saw this as an easy income on their investment property.

It is true however that more people are looking to rent before they buy due to the slowdown in the property market worldwide, but rental incomes have dropped due to the heavy increase of availability of empty houses. More and more second home owners are seeking extra help to pay off their mortgages on their overseas property with long term or even short term letting the obvious option for most.

If you are looking to buy to let here in Cabo Roig, then looking into marketing of your property for rental is something that you must take on board.

Flipping houses in Cabo Roig

At this present time flipping houses is not viable, especially for investors looking to make a short term investment. Looking to long term investing is much more realistic, if you are able to find a property that is below market value in Cabo Roig – in our honest and true opinion, you will gain in the long term but would not advise this in short term which is probably the same for most areas in Spain at this present time.

Cabo Roig has changed a lot in recent times, not visually but in terms of how much more residential it has become and how demand has increased due to its popularity. If you are looking to invest, buy to let or simply purchase a property in Cabo Roig for living purposes – then we at Mevilla C.B can give you an honest and straight forward opinion given your circumstances, without pressure selling to ensure the property that you buy in Cabo Roig is 110% the right choice for you





Cabo Roig house prices 2009

4 05 2009

Even with the current economic climate house prices in Cabo Roig in general have remained quite stable indeed. Other areas have taken a knock in the past year however Cabo Roig has maintained its value and we hope and believe that home owners in the urbanisation will not experience such a fall in value now or in the near future.

Of course there are going to be exceptions to the norm, and we have had cases where clients have needed a quick sale due to personal and financial reasons – these distressed sales have usually sold quicker than other areas due to lower than usual price and down to location.

According to Kyero (Spanish property portal) the average house price for April 2009 for the Alicante province was 246,300 euros which is 81% of the national Spanish average value. Unfortunately we do not have any correct or accurate figures that we can offer you for Cabo Roig, but when and if we do – we will post them here for you to view.
