Buenas tardes

It's not just the property market in Spain which is slowing down, it's now cars too!
If you're not already aware, as of next Monday speed limits on motorways and toll roads are being reduced from 120kph to 110kph. This is allegedly to reduce fuel consumption and not to generate more revenue from fines....hmmmm. You can read more about it on this forum discussion.
Also, last week we launched our new ebook "Yes! You CAN Learn Spanish". It's for anyone who is looking for some direction in getting their Spanish to a reasonable level. Find out more about it at:
Yes! You CAN Learn Spanisn
Now, enjoy this week's article and remember to keep sending us your articles to publish too. Tell us your story, about where you live or plan to live, etc. We and all our readers want to hear from you.
Have a great week.
Un saludo
Justin

Spain 2011, To Buy or Not to Buy? That Is the Question!
I am going to leave Statistics to the Statisticians and concentrate on what the statistics don't tell you about the Spanish Property Market for 2011. I am a big fan of Spain and I am going to look at whether to buy a property in Spain from the perspective of a British property buyer, basically because I am one myself.

Holidays in Orgiva, Andalucia
Orgiva is the capital of the Alpujarras, a unique place immortalised by Gerald Brenan in "South from Granada" and characterised by Chris Stewart in "Driving over Lemons" and "Parrot in a Pepper Tree". The writings of these authors were inspired by the area which has its own unique mini-ecology. The melting snows from the higher mountain areas which leak into the river gorges that feed the lower mountain farmlands below.

There are actually hearsays about which major company will set up base in Spain. Disney is one of the names that is mentioned about this issue. Just to clear things up, Disney is not setting up a new franchise in Spain, but Paramount Pictures is.

Retruning to the UK? UK Housing Market Update
Whilst we may chose to live in a more relaxed enviroment with constant sunshine it seems we still retain a big interest in “what is happening back home†with regards to property values. This may be because you still own property in the UK or are considering returning home and therefore want an indication of what your money will buy.
