hi

we  have just returned from a trip to villamartin and explored many of the surrounding communities i think establishing a cleaning and window cleaning business is viable but at this time it is safer in the domestic rather than the commercial market

i dont think it will make me rich but i would think with enough advertising and marketing it will work

as we did notice the high percentage of shops and bars closed and up for sale or rent or just empty much more so than 6 months ago when we were last in the area

can any one suggest what they think is the best urbanisation or town in the area in which to settle bearing in mind we have 3 small children so schools beach shops bars etc are important

villamartin is lovely but i seem to think its more of a holiday -seasonal community rather than all year round

we have decided it may be prudent to rent for a year to see how things go

any thoughts

ps anyone know what happened to the bookies in villamartin plaza went to put a bet on and his closed down and lease up for sale

i asked for some advice  ref our move to spain and relocating our cleaning business a short while back and recieved some very useful comments

i have recently purchased a property rental website which we intend to currently expand to include property maintenance cleaning key holding  pool  and window cleaning and change over services  and maybe airport collections

the site purchased currenty charges the owner a yearly fee to advertise their property and prospective holiday renters can contact the owners direct without incurring any charges

we were also thinking of expanding the business to include long term lets as well as  the current holiday letting

what would someone be willing to pay for this advertising service and are there any similar companies operating in the torrevieja area

from this hopefully we will generate enough money to live a decent life in villamartin

any comments  or suggestions welcome
