Hello All,

I am a newcomer to this site. What a great idea.

I was very heartened to see the comments by Alan J H.

It is about time somebody stood up and spoke the facts. Spain is and always will be the best and most popular place in Europe to buy property. I agree problems do arise but let's not forget we left behind a whole lot more in the UK and there they are getting worse by the week.

I too had a great time buying my house in Spain with a company who could not do enough for us. Like in every walk of life you will get bad apples but if you are reasonably intelligent and don't leave your brains at the airport (like some do) buying a house here is a great experience and living here is even better.

The UK press and television programmes which constantly have a pop at Spain need to find something else to occupy their time and Sir Trevor Macdonald, for example, needs to address the problems closer to home.

Nice to see the reply from Maria.

Dave
