Will we live the dream?

I stayed in La Marina roughly ten years ago for a two week holiday, which then turned into an obsession with the surrounding areas and holidaying there for the next ten years.

We travelled all around the area and each year stayed in a different area, in different types of villas and apartments.  This turned out to be a great idea as we really did find the best place to buy (Both area and type of building!).

I have spent the last five ish years writing down all the information I thought I would need, reading everything I could about buying property and writing that down too!  I have so many estate agents on my favourites it was getting crazy. I trawled the net searching for that perfect property but to no avail.  So we just kept going on holiday.

I had a few places saved on my ebay which I kept updating when I found something else I liked the look of, but then I got distracted by work and deleted them all off and left it for about six months.

One day I went on ebay and saved in my watch list was this property in Torremendo which I thought Ian my partner had saved  in there, so I had a bit of a look at it but it wasn't for me.  I clicked on the link to the agents site and had a look at what was available and to my surprise there was an apartment in an area we liked and had stayed in before.

I had sold my Motorhome and the money was burning a hole in my pocket!

I rang the agent and talked about the property and what was expected and within a couple of hours I had arranged a flight to Spain to view the property.

I flew out the following week, 14th November, with my Mam and Dad as my partner couldn't come with me and I needed someone there to reassure me and make sure I wasn't letting my heart rule my head.

Well when we arrived it chucked it down for the entire time and we were told it was the worst weather they had had in ages ........
