 Hi Martin,

Thank you for your candid reply.

We have viewed several properties on Majestic Hills ( & a couple on Majestic Gardens) on three seperate occasions.  We certainly do appreciate the lovely gardens and general build quality but each visit opened our eyes to more in terms of empty properties and poor maintenance.  Having said all that, we are still watching with interest as these are undoubtedly some of the best apartments we have seen.

The bigger worry is the general malais in Spain ( and further  afield ) and how this will ultimately impact on taxes etc etc,.( An area we are not familiar with - but rather cautious of).

Thanks again for your advice.

 

Regards

Pliny

Thanks for your replu Mungro.

Are your comments specific to Majestic Hills or more generally about property with a "past" ?

We have been chatting to a friend who lives in Benalmadena and she says it probably would be more difficult to sell property down that Estepona/ manilva/ duquesa end of the coast. ( which might be bourne out by the attractive (cheap) prices for some of the properties we looked at down there.

We really liked the Duquesa marina - but there is more to owning a holiday home than a nice marina and a few English speaking eateries.

We also liked the beach front Sinfonia del Mar - but got the distinct impression that these are most deffinately short term holiday let apartments rather than longer term holiday homes?

The other area of interest is the golf complexes - which are beautifully maintained and built to a very good standard.

Any further comments would be very gratefully received.

Thanks

Pliny

Hi,

I'm new to this site - So hope someone out there hears me!!

We are considering buying on Majestic Hills  Casares- as the site looks well built, quiet and (mainly)well kept. One or two of the properties look a little unloved?

I have been a little scared off by the forboding posts on the history of the development.

Are the issues cleared up?  Are the licences now in place? What is the community like?

We are looking for a holiday home  for ourselves, family & friends (British couple / no kids ).

Any comments would be much appreciated.

Thanks
