 Hi

Sorry if I offended anyone, that wasn't my intent, it was simply my impression when staying there for a while while property hunting.

I have just asked the person who informed me and I misunderstood, it was not a repo that sold for 20K it was a private resale. I, nor the chap, that told me, knows the details other than it was a 2 bed GF apartment but the story seems fairly solid. My only suggestion was to spend a day in the resort, get all the numbers on the the Se Vende notices and call. Good luck.

I will agree that Terrazas is a brilliant golf course, it is many peoples favourite. The pools look great and as to all the other stuff, security, comunity fees, rental potential etc I cannot comment. My wife and I just felt very isolated.

Caveat Emptor as always & really good luck with your hunt, it's a wonderful area.

 I agree with you about La Torre. 

I looked at a number of the resorts in Murcia and chose La Torre for a long term rental but if I was buying there is better value elsewhere.

There were some apartments at Condado at around the €50K mark, I suspect they have gone now but given the lively town centre (much better than La Torre) I would look there first. The downside of being much further away from large towns etc is an individual choice. If you don't mind being totally on your own I believe an apartment at Las Terrazas de la Torre just went for €20K. But nice as the golf course is it's probably like living on the moon.

Good luck with your hunt.

 Hi All

Can anyone recommend a golf pro or teacher for a newbie. I've got from 28-24 on my own but now need putting right.

I'm looking for someone from say Los Alcazares up to Torrvieja and North as far as Corvera. I've seen  lot of pros who are very good with people who can already play but are too complicated fo beginners. I know every course here has one or two but I've always found recommendations to be the best way forward.

Naturally the teacher needs to speak good English and be very patient ;-)

Thanks in advance for any help & happy golfing.

Chris
