Looking for property

Hi Joanne, In general the North is considered to be more expensive than the South. Walking distance to schools will probably restrict you to the larger towns. Would suggest you parse a few names of towns from a map of the area and then enter them into Kyero, the internet portal for nearly all property in spain, used by all the estate agents, with your parameters for price etc. You will at least then get a sensible idea of what there is. It’s obviously cheaper inland from the coast, but tends to be more rural, so amenities may not be so convenient,

I realise this is not specific help, but may be a signpost to some ideas.

I appreciate your reply have seen some properties in Beniarberg, do you know anything about this town?

It’s a small town about 20 mins drive from us, fairly rural. We have some Dutch friends who live there, just outside. Have only ever seen it ‘in passing’, but understand that like most of the small towns/villages around here, it almost has a majority expat population of varying flavours. The village itself appears to be surrounded with the usual kind of horrible recent buildings, built for utility rather than aesthetics. The attached website link will give you more helpful info re schools etc.

Hi Joanne

The north is more mountainous and has some very beautiful but rugged scenery.  I know you are looking to be in a Spanish town rather than an ex-pat area so you would be heading inland a little.  I'll drop you an email

Thanks appreciate any advice.

Joanne, I live in Beniarbeig, and it's very nice! If you want any info just ask.
