Las Canteras Beachfront Property: How Much Is It Worth?

by

What is beachfront Las Canteras property worth in the current market?

Beachfront property along Las Canteras beach is in its own price bracket and often hard to value accurately.

This is due to several factors.

  1. Las Canteras property doesn’t come onto the market that often because beachfront owners tend to hold on to their apartments for a long time.
  2. Many are owned by non-residents who earn a rental income as well as using them for holidays.
  3. They have significant intangible valuation factors such as the desirability of the outdoor space.

However, since I’ve had four beachfront apartments for sale this year I have a clear idea of what their market value is in 2019. [Read more…]

Gran Canaria Property Market Update: March 2019

Gran Canaria property update: March 2019: How the upcoming elections and other factors are affecting the market

When I wrote the 2019 guide to Las Palmas property in late 2018 I noted that I expected average prices to rise in 2019 despite a set of moderating factors.

These were; a decline in tourist rental investment, an increase in new-build property, and the inevitable decline in tourist numbers following the recent boom.

We must now add the uncertainty of national elections on April 28 and local elections on May 25.

Let’s have a look at each of these factors in more detail… [Read more…]

Selling In Gran Canaria: Exclusivity Means You Only Get Pestered By One Agent

by

You only get pestered by the estate agent you choose, rather than by lots of estate agents you've never spoken to before.

I’ve written before about the benefits of using one estate agent to handle the sale of your Gran Canaria property via an exclusive contract.

But somehow, I’ve never managed to explain it in a few words (until now).

Exclusivity means…

  • You only get pestered by the estate agent you choose, rather than by lots of people you don’t know.
  • All the island’s agents work to sell your property, but your agent is in charge of the whole process; marketing, viewings, paperwork, contracts, etc.
  • Your chosen agent is there to look after your interests.

An exclusive contract with a good Gran Canaria agent means that you have complete control over the selling process.

Working exclusively with a good agent gives you the best possible chance of selling promptly and at the best possible price.

I’m Laura Leyshon and I’m one of Gran Canaria’s top-selling estate agents. If you have a property to sell in Gran Canaria, please feel free to contact me for a free appraisal and valuation.

Gran Canaria Property: It’s All About People & Relationships

by

Property sales in Gran Canaria are all about people and relationships. Online selling services charge upfront and offer no guarantees at all.

Online property sellers like Housell now promote themselves in Gran Canaria as an alternative to estate agencies.

They sell themselves as a cheap way to find a buyer that cuts costs by removing the middleman (middlewoman, in my case).

However, what they actually do is charge well over 1000 euros upfront without offering any guarantees at all. [Read more…]
