Eye on Spain Newsletter 31 - March 2009
   

Buenos dias

Hope you're having a good week so far.  We've been really busy making loads of changes to the website and there's more to come.  We're currently improving the holiday rentals and long term rentals sections but we'll tell you more about that very soon as we aim to also ensure that the listings are higher quality.

Just want to mention too that next week we're going to be sending you details of a new insurance product on the market which will help to really protect your home in Spain...and it's really very cheap!  Watch out for that.

Enough banter, let's move on with today's articles...

Remember that you can also submit your own articles for publication in the newsletter and on the website.
