Rural Property
sales in Spain. Buying property in rural Spain
Inland, or 'rural
Spain' is where you will find what is often known as the
'Real Spain'. Relatively unknown as yet to the British
market, property prices still remain low compared to coastal
areas, although buying property in rural Spain is now
becoming increasingly popular with buyers from overseas.
This can only result in increasing prices, but at the
present time there are still many bargains to be had,
with property prices starting as low as £30,000.
To buy a reasonable property
along the coastal areas of the Costa Blanca will cost
in the region of £150,000, compared to a 'casa de
campo' country house in rural areas such as Ontinyent,
which can cost as little as £20,000!
Okay, so what do you get
for your money? In the lower price bracket, (up to £50,000)
you may find that these rural properties in Spain run
from a generator and the sales description will read 'electricity
nearby'. This means that it is possible to connect the
supply, but it can take time and be expensive to install
(depending on the distance to the nearest supply). The
same may apply to mains water. However, for an exceptionally
low priced property this can be well worth it.
The property will probably
also need to be reformed, which can mean anything from
minor repairs to a major renovation. The local villages
in rural areas will be very Spanish so a knowledge of
the language may be necessary. Being very friendly, the
Spanish villagers will accept foreigners who try to 'fit
in'. All these factors should be considered before buying
a rural property in Spain and should be explained to you
by the selling agent.
The great appeal of rural
property in Spain is the peace, tranquility, and the scenic
views and countryside. Many areas that are considered
inland, are still within half an hour of the nearest coast,
and many properties for sale can still be bought with
large plots of land and swimming pools for less than £100,000.

sale in Spain range from plots of land at 30.000 Euros
