Battenberg
So I have now taken two self funded trips and have narrowed my areas to la zenia and Playa Flamenca. It’s a very close call between 2 houses. The La Zenia property has a fantastic location with a solarium and great communal pool. It needs a bit of work and I can’t get my head around having a boiler outside. The Playa Flamenca property is lovely and needs no work. I have a couple of questions?
The La Zenia property is a “battenberg” type which doesn’t put me off (photo attached) and is probably my favourite. However, the agent for the playa Flamenca property absolutely destroyed my faith by slagging it off saying Spanish people almost look down on people who buy them and I should steer clear of it and buy the house I was having a 2nd viewing on. Has anyone had an agent do this to them, they actually admitted that 25% was trying to put me off it!
I’m going to do some research into battenberg properties but has anyone had any problems with them? Apparently the one they were selling was built by a superior builder but I wonder just how much of that was sales talk.
I’m thinking about it over the weekend but would love any advice. Thanks
