 Where to advertise your property for sale in Spain, has now become a critical decision. Should you choose your local estate agent, an International agent, a free property web site or pay a small fee to advertise the property yourself?

With the current onslought of the ‘Credit Crunch’ affecting property sales worldwide, and the strengthening Euro value against the Pound, it’s difficult to see where you could advertise your property, and achieve a sale at a reasonable price.

BuyMyVilla.com offers an excellent opportunity to advertise your property for sale in Spain, without paying the large agency fees and reach many more potential buyers than the local agent. BuyMyVilla.com is a web site where owners can sell their property direct, or For sale by owner (as it’s known). Is it like all the others that advertise properties for sale in Spain?…

What makes this site different from others where you can even advertise for free? Well, as with almost everything else, you get what you pay for! Free sites offer an automated listing service where your property in Spain is merely placed onto the database with very little thought about what would attract a buyer. BuyMyVilla.com places emphasis on the presentation of the property and, possibly more importantly, how a search engine will read the property details.

The search engines are key to how many people view your property on the web. You can have the prettiest property at the lowest price, but if no-one knows it’s for sale and it’s hidden among thousands of other properties, it won’t be seen. If you advertise the property for sale in spain, on a site that carefully words the advertisement, your advert will be seen and you have just increased your chances of selling your villa in Spain.

Just advertising on the web isn’t the answer any more, you need to advertise on a site that will be seen and will be in the top ten searches like “buy a villa” or “buy a villa in spain”. Try the phrases on your favourite search engines.

Try BuyMyVilla.com to advertise your property for sale in Spain, many have already.

Mallorca Property market - 2008 PredictionsThe Mallorca real estate market seems to have weathered the global ‘cash crisis’ well so far. Mainland Spain has seen a steady decline in buyers from the heady heights of early 2007. Of course, there are exceptions, as Polaris World in the Murcia region continues to sell well.

Unlike parts of mainland Spain, Mallorca has not suffered from an over-supply of speculative builds. As a consequence, demand, especially for quality apartments, is in balance with or exceeding supply. Coupled with the lack of good plots and restrictions on licences, prices for quality property in sought after locations are still likely to rise 7-10%, depending on area.

Quarterly statistics released by the Spanish Ministry of Housing bear out this trend. Furthermore, although housing starts throughout Spain had fallen generally by 33-37% in the 2nd quarter of 2007 (and by as much as 64% in Andalusia), planning approvals in the Balearics actually rose by 21% in the same period.

Beach front and Golf Front line property will remain an excellent investment, even more so if there is direct sea access, as coastal authorities are tightening up. They are not introducing new laws, simply implementing existing ones. Quality builds and properties in prime locations will continue to be in demand. Simply put, any property for sale in Mallorca with a prime view will always sell, and there will always be someone prepared to pay for the best.

The Ministry of Transport has allocated about half its annual budget to extend the rail network link from Palma via Inca and Manacor to Arta. Unlike Pollensa or Cala D’Or, which are popular with UK tour operators and villa rental companies, the north east of the island around Arta is not well known amongst UK buyers. Prices are still 10-15% cheaper than elsewhere, but not for long.

Lower priced properties will continue to find buyers, provided they remain at the lower level. Mallorca is an ‘aspirational’ buy and the lower priced properties will always be in demand. The middle priced Mallorcan property owners will need to be more patient than usual this year, and the higher priced luxury Mallorcan Villas will always find buyers.

Property in Mallorca is not cheap - the type of investors attracted to the island is driven mainly by lifestyle changes rather than for short term profit. Together with all the benefits of buying in Spain in general - short flight times from European destinations, an outdoor lifestyle, a safe child and family friendly culture - Mallorca offers that bit more. Mallorca seems to offer so much more than it’s immediate competitors.

A trickle of second homes for sale turns into a flood.

The credit crunch has started to take effect on the second home market in countries where there are many new developments just coming to the stage of completion. When purchase decisions were made two years ago and consumer confidence was high, properties were increasing in value due to high demand, cheap local loans and high equity values in the primary homes.

It´s very different now. Many new developments are now coming up to the completion stage and the developers are asking their buyers to part with the balance owed, in return for the title deeds and the keys. Some buyers are choosing to cut their losses and sell for below perceived market value, but many remain in denial. The reality is that, to sell, offers of 20% below the asking price are likely and should be considered in most circumstances. The alternative is to keep the properties and hope to rent them out. Bluntly, there are not enough prospective tenants to fill all of these holiday homes.
For those, with property overseas in “Euroland”, there is the prospect of mentally off-setting some losses against the rise in the strength of the Euro against the Pound. In some cases, most people will get 10-15% more Pounds for their Euros when converting money back to the UK as the Euro has strengthened considerably against the pound over the last year.

Where´s the good news? It is predicted that the buyers who still exist will begin a buying frenzy this summer. The really smart buyers will pick from the crop now. If you have a property to sell, simply advertise it on a For Sale By Owner site like BuyMyVilla.com for just a few pounds, avoid the estate agency fee, and let the savvy buyer contact you direct. They´re out there, you just need to let them know your property is for sale.

Selling a house has become increasingly difficult and the recent property market conditions are presenting some tough challenges for homeowners who are looking to sell their property quickly. It is taking much longer for a homeowner to get a house sale compared to a couple of years ago. The confidence in the property markets around the world has been dented and buyers are holding back on buying property until market conditions improve.

So what does a homeowner do if he/ she needs to get sell house fast? How do they deal with the stress of having their house on the market for long periods of time, not knowing when the next buyer will come along (if a buyer ever will). Well if the seller is looking to sell home fast using an estate agent then there is a good chance that they will not know when the house will be sold and it could be very likely that it will stay on the market for a while.

If the seller really needs a guaranteed, quick sale then there is another option; they can exercise the option of selling their house to a company that will directly purchase property from sellers. These companies work directly with the seller who says I want to sell my house fastand look to complete the direct purchase of a house within weeks. There are no estate agents or third parties to worry about and the sale process is normally smooth.

Selling in this way allows a seller to relax, knowing that there house sale is pretty much guaranteed and they can move on and plan to move on a definitive date. This method of selling helps people is difficult circumstances to move on in life. Circumstances such as moving due to a divorce, family bereavement, ill health, releasing equity, relocating, financial debt and so on. All these situations can be resolved by the quick sale of a house to a direct cash buyer.
