Add You - Successfully Buying Property in Spain - Part 1 of 2
It is wise to lay a sound legal foundation for your business in your planning stage. This ensures compliance with the commonly accepted business practices, which will save you a lot of headaches in the future. Here are five things that you want to take into consideration when planning the legal aspect of your business.1. Your Company NameThis is actually a very important aspect of your business. You want to choose a name that is easy for other people to remember, pronounce and associate with. You can use your name combined with a business description like 'John Campbell Lawn Care Service'. This can boost your credibility and create a brand for yourself. However, there is a drawback on using your name. You m
3 - Prepare a list of general questions beforehand, pertinent to all the properties you will see.
For example:
- How old is the property?
- How old is the roof?
- Is there a septic tank?
- Are services connected (water, electricity etc)?
- Is there a good plumber, carpenter, electrician etc nearby?
- How much are the local taxes?
- How long will the sale process take (is it a straightforward single owner sale or a multiple owner inheritance sale)?
- Where is the nearest village/town and how far away is it?
4 - Be honest with the agent. Tell them what you like and dislike about each property you view. That way, if you d
Do you struggle with a "problem" employee? If so, join the crowd! Many of my coaching clients - businesses owners or managers - tear their hair out over one or more toxic employees. In our business environment, we tend to recreate the dynamics of the family we grew up, so no wonder problems develop.It's amazing often a business owner or manager will endure a "problem" employee, unable to help the employee make positive changes and unable to fire them when necessary. Tolerating a problem employee is like walking around with a sliver in your foot - highly irritating, but you can kind of get used to it. Then, when you finally pull it out, you can't believe the relief! That relief generally comes in one of two ways:
Step 1 - SELECTION
To make your best selection you will need to carrying out some research. Some questions for you to think about:
- What climate to I want?
- Nearest airport or ferry?
- Do I want beaches, skiing, rolling countryside, mountain views?
- Do I want to be in a town, village or rural?
- Am I looking to live in Spain permanently, looking for a holiday home or somewhere to produce an income?
- Land - Am I looking for lots of land or a small garden?
- Am I looking for a "move in" property or a restoration project?
- Am I looking for a personal use property or space for villas? (The average villa can make ?5,500 per year.)
Two methods of selecting your property:
Method 1 - Specific
Our database of properties is automatically updated instantly as soon as we are informed of changes, making our list of properties for sale much more accurate and up to date than any of the Spanish magazines listing properties (these all have at least a minimum of 8 week lead times due to printing and distribution).
Method 2 - Type
By the time you have carried out your research, you will have a general idea of the type of property that would be ideal for you. We maintain over 1500 properties on our constantly updated website and our agents offices have more than 50,000 more on their books, so there will always be a vast selection of the type of property perfect for you.
Step 2 - VIEWING
Two methods:
Method 1 - Organised itinerary
Once you have let us know the type of property you are seeking and the amount of time you will be in Spain, we will brief the agents in your chosen area(s). They will then confirm the availability of a number of suitable properties and we will book the amount of time necessary for you to view the selection. This can range from half a day to 2 full days, depending on the number of properties you wish to see.
We can then arrange your whole itinerary program into the most efficient travel, with reasonable journeys and good "value for money" accommodation waiting for you each night. We would then ask you to confirm that you are free to accept the appointments and, finally, firmly confirm your appointments with the agents concerned. In order to organise the smoothest trip for you, please bear in mind that we need to know from the start if there are any days that you are not available for viewing properties due to other commitments or "rest" days.
Method 2 - Organising the trip yourself
You can, of course organise your trip yourself. However, do bear in mind that we have years of expertise in organising many successful visits to Spain: we know the Agents and we know the travelling times. Few Spanish Agencies can handle "walk-in" appointments, so you would need to pre-book appointments. Trying to squeeze in 3 or 4 appointments a day, an hour late here, a missed appointment there might seem like the best way to cover ground - but mostly, that's exactly what you'll achieve - covering ground (Spain is a big country) skidding up and down the country exhausting yourself and you won't endear yourself to the Spanish agencies. Having numerous agencies tripping over each other, producing double bookings and cancellations, might seem like the best way of organising your trip but you really are reducing your chances of success and when you need to return to Spain for a second time, you may find you're not treated as seriously as you'd like.
Visiting Properties
1 - Keep your itinerary, phone numbers, mobile phone and map with you. Then you shouldn't get lost. However, if you loose your way or get delayed or find your ideal Spanish home before you finish the itinerary, you'll have all the relevant directions and phone numbers with you so you'll be able to advise all the agents accordingly.
2 - Equip yourself for the task. Wear suitable clothes and take a pair of shoes.
Things to take:
- Torch
- Tape measure
- Compass
- Camera plus sufficient film (digital or video camera - for instant results)
- Camera chargers or spare batteries
- Mobile phone and charger
- Pen
- Notebook
- Refreshments
This will enable you to really investigate the properties, crawl into those haylofts, explore the land, climb any hills to check the views, peer into those dark corners, measure rooms and areas, note where the sun rises and sets, photograph those unusual features and make sufficient notes to help aid your decision later. It is wise to take refreshments with you to make the most of your viewing time - shop opening hours vary from area to area.

I am going to make a really bold statement here. List building is really easy. That’s right – list building is really easy.I think that people try to make it more complex than it needs to be. They try to add steps that don’t need to be there.I think that people do that because it gives them an excuse if it doesn’t work – but the truth is that if you do not keep it simple – it will probably not work. And if it does – you will probably not know why it works. And that is bad, because you cannot duplicate something you have no idea how it works.So this is my really simple version of how to build a list. And this is really all you need to do; this is all I do.You may be thinking – really? Yes, this is

Is The Securities and Exchange Commission trying to regulate price control? It appears that they are as they develop more rules and regulations on how the securities industries may charge their customers and the type of disclosures that must be made. Is it really the SEC's job to regulate prices? What happened to free markets and why should the government intervene in something they clearly do not understand?Although the rules and regulations have changed at an alarming rate in the last four years since Sarbanes-Oxley they can't keep up with all the new changes that the industry is making in the marketplace nor should they try. When they make one rule all they have really done is given them selves job security to keep ma

When it comes to getting a UK personal loan you have two choices. You can choose to get an unsecured loan or you can choose to get a secured loan.An unsecured loan is simply a loan you get based on your good name and your credit rating. Often the interest rates are low the higher on an unsecured loan and on a secured loan because the risk is higher to the lending institution. If, for some reason, you are unable to pay back the loan and the lending institution does not get any money back. However, your good name and your credit rating are potentially ruined.On the other hand, a secured load is a low you get when you put up some assets. The advantage of a secured loan is that you often get more money at a lower interest

The reason that so many marketers have created Private Label Rights Membership Sites is there are few markets online more profitable than the Membership Site Business Model. The most important benefit of owning a membership site is that it creates that elusive residual income.For years the top Internet Marketing Gurus peddled their wares, one program or one product at a time. These marketers were like traveling salesmen, selling one product to one customers and going to the next house to repeat their sales spiel all over again. These marketers embraced the Amazon.com model that gives you credit for one sale and then the customer belongs to Amazon.com.Seeing the light before the end of the tunnel, these same top mark
