Greetings!
Welcome to the September newsletter. After a super summer season in terms of weather - loads of sunshine and temperatures in the low 30's - we are now only 4 months from Christmas as I was reminded yesterday!
|
| RECESSION OR REVIVAL ? | | |
About the only thing constant in the media is their repeated fluctuations between "double dip recession" and "substantial growth" so I have decided to ignore all future media and just concentrate on the positives!
|
| THE MARKET | |
Certainly here in Mallorca we have seen a slow recovery in terms of enquiries and visits and some sales - usually at about 10% below the asking prices. More and more people are showing interest in "in land" properties in areas such as Santa Maria, Soller, and the South East around Santanyi and are keen to buy in the less populated areas where life is as it was when Spain was Spanish!
|
BANK REPOSSESSIONS
| |
Needless to say these "pop up" from time to time. There are occasional excellent opportunities which arise at short notice and which require a substantial but refundable deposit in order to attend the auction. The process is similar to other countries. If you require further information, please contact me.
|
| EXCHANGE RATE | |
Currently at € 1.22 to the pound this works in favour of the UK buyer but of course is less attractive for sellers who wish to repatriate sale proceeds to sterling. Well worth using a broker such as Halo Financial or Globex Foreign Exchange (UK) Ltd.or Moneycorp all of which we find offer excellent rates and good service.
|
TOURISM
| | |
Overall visitor numbers are slightly down but last minute bookings are more and more the trend. In parallel with the increase in "in land" buying of properties, rural hotels are having a better year and for example Can Furios in Binibona not far from Inca and Selva are fully booked for September.

FOOTBALL - REAL CLUB DE MALLORCA
| | |
Palma's football club, Real Mallorca, has been in the news -revitalised by new owners and with Michael Laudrup (Danish ex Barcelona Dream team) now in charge and new shareholders including Rafael Nadal of tennis fame, we look forward to great achievements.. His uncle Miguel Nadal - also ex Barcelona player - is also involved and the season has started with a home match draw 0 - 0 against Real Madrid on the 29th August. A pretty good result against the Madrid multi million giants!
|
ONE LINERS!
| |
Here are a couple of famous one liners from the football world:
---------------------------------------------
The first 90 minutes of the match are the most important.
Sir Bobby Robson ----------------------------------------------- I'm a firm believer that if the other side scores first you have to score twice to win.
Howard Wilkinson

ELTON JOHN AND ANDREA BOCELLI IN CONCERT IN MALLORCA
| |
On the 4th September these two superstars appeared in concert at Son Moix Stadium, now renamed Iberostar Stadium in Palma. The show was a great success. |
Quote (with apologies to our Developer friends!)

"If people destroy something replaceable made by mankind, they are called vandals; if they destroy something irreplaceable made by God, they are called developers."
