Hello,yet another newbie!

[mike65]

:spin:!We have just started looking for somewhere to escape from the trials and tribulations of UK weather (sound familiar?)

I have been visiting the forum for a while and got some good ideas on where to look for a property to buy! Perhaps people can add their input? Looking for a 2 bed apartment,mainly for extended holidays for our family.Gated communities look good because of security and facilities.Not Gigantes area,too hilly ! Has Chayofita improved since 2012?

Look forward to future involvement.

PS any good estate agents reccommended?

Do you mean Chayofita in Silencio or Chayofa near Arona ? Just to clarify so someone from those areas can help you

Chayofita doesn't look much better than it was. Still very run down. El Chaparral has all been gated and they were talking about having card swipe entry systems etc so they could hopefully get rid of all the squatters and long term non-paying tenants.
There are some dirt cheap apartments and studios around there but you get what you pay for and it would be a very good idea to find out about the communities on there - how much is owed to them and what sort of problems they are having before taking on a property yourself on a "problem" complex.
Atlantico up there is nicer... I have seen some pretty low prices on there.
