Hello 👋 

Me and my partner are looking at buying a holiday home that we will eventually retire too and was hoping to get some advise around running cost of a property we will only live in for 4/5 weeks per year initially. We would look to let the property to friends and family so would be vacant for over half the year?

The things that we have to consider are the running costs of the property. I know it’s difficult for you to put an exact figure on it but what would you think the average running costs are for the property in terms of gas/electric, maintenance/ground fees and any other costs like equivalent council tax if that’s such a thing in Spain or any other costs we might need to be aware of such as purchase fees equivalent to stamp duty we have in the Uk. 

As it’s a second home I’m aware from some research on the internet that a tax has to be paid even if the property isn’t let and if let 24% tax has to be paid on the income?? How does this get paid? Sorry I know there is a lot of questions but it’s all things we have to consider when deciding if buying a property is affordable. If it is something that is achievable are there property management services in La Marina that can deal with the running/cleaning and general maintenance of the property and general costs associated with this service? 

Hope to hear from you soon.

Hello lovely people, the walls in our lounge are sound but lots of dents, uneven patches etc. Tbh my hubby was a plasterer when he was younger but cannot do it now. He’s said that all the walls need skimming to provide a good smooth surface.

I’ve been told that the plaster/ process/products used in Spain are different to the UK.

1) Does anyone have experience of this?

2) I would prefer to use some one that comes recommended (great job/good price). Can you recommend some one?

TIA
