Turn your dream into reality: Flaxman real estate for a new life in the sun - Oliva Press, Spain news.

The southern part of Spain has long attracted British home seekers. With its laid-back lifestyle, endless tapas and almost constant sunshine, there is plenty of life and fun to be had here. Already a coronavirus and looming Brexit can't stop Brits dreaming of a new life in the sun. Meet the team at Flaxman Estates.

Places to buy

Most places like Marbella and Sotogrande may be known for their luxury villas and nightlife, but rural Spain is increasingly attracting British expats. Julie Flaxman, who owns Flaxman Estates with her husband Neil and son Richard, says she has noticed an increase in buyers choosing inland properties over coastal properties over the past few months. "People are looking for private and secluded properties that feel peaceful, yet not too remote, with quick access to the coast." The appeal of the hinterland is value for money and now is a great time to buy.

Julie and her family moved to Spain over 15 years ago and, like many expats, they were encouraged to head to the Costa. "The agents told us that's where we'd be happy, but we didn't like it," Julie says. "Moving to the interior was the best decision we made." For Julie and her family, life in Rio Guadalhorse is the best of both worlds. "We are not far from the coast and the city of Málaga, but here we can experience the real Spanish way of life. "I like the Spanish values and hearing the mother tongue, but at the same time I have a lot of British friends here. We're internal but not isolated; it's perfect. "

The Flaxman Estates team

"We are a true family company that loves what we do. We get a lot of satisfaction from helping people," she says. "Most of our clients are British, but we also have a few international clients, so we're not limited to one nationality.

Experienced team

Julie has been in the real estate industry for over 16 years and is passionate about helping other expats find their dream home. She has extensive experience and knowledge in the sales process and product of both inland and coastal properties and is respected in the real estate industry. She has a good eye for detail and can see the potential in a property to transform it into the perfect home according to each client's needs. All clients can be assured of her honest and professional, yet caring approach that begins with the first meeting and continues after the transaction is finalized. Our after-sales service is impeccable, nothing is too much trouble for us and we always try to help our customers as much as we can.

Despite the challenges of 2020, the Spanish market has benefited from the growth of remote working, and more people than ever are turning their attention to the Spanish countryside. "We feel fortunate this year and we continue to be busy after the lockout. There are certainly many buyers who are considering Spanish regions within the country. "

So where to buy? Both Julie and Neil agree that Coin, Monda, Cartama, Alhaurin el Grande and Alhaurin de la Torre are all great locations, easily accessible from anywhere. And they say, "We always welcome new vendors offered in any price range to update our portfolio continuously. We look forward to seeing you in our office as you drive by.".
