Eye on Spain Newsletter 08 May 2007
   

Dear EOS Member

For those of you in the UK, hope you had a good long weekend, all refreshed back at work....hmmm.  In case you didn't know last Sunday was Mother's Day here in Spain and we (me and the kids) decided that we should treat "the boss" and take her out for the day.  We actually had a really great time, you can read about it on Susan's blog: http://womeninspain.blogspot.com/ 

Won't waffle on today.  Our lead article today is about what I see as "the other side" of the Spanish property market, the online side.  No one ever talks about it but there's a lot more to it than meets the eye.

The Mystery of Spanish Property Online 
Most people's first port of call when searching for a property in Spain is the Internet.  But so many websites, how do you choose and who's really behind them?  Agents need to move with the times.

Moving to Spain has Never Been Easier
Susan believes that those looking to move to Spain now have never had it so good.  If only it had been that easy when we moved not so long ago.
