Hi
Hope you are enjoying (If that is the word) your lockdown. We are into our sixth week without leaving the house apart from to buy groceries here in Valencia and it has given us plenty of time to think, refine and write among other things, (two hours of exercise every afternoon being one of them). Therefore, I thought it time to direct you to some of our latest blog posts, and give you a potted list of what we think is going
to happen in the Valencian and wider Spanish property market.
The main bullet points are as follows:
- We doubt people will be allowed to come into the country until well into the summer.
- We think prices will fall but owners won't drop their prices in general enough to sell.
- We think buyers will expect all prices to drop equally across the board but that will not happen. (Read why in the article)
- Rental availability will increase due to the destruction of the Airbnb business model.
- Certain types of properties and properties with certain features will become more popular. (Read in the article)
We hope you find this useful.
What Happens Next In Spanish Property?

Believe it or not this was the 1000th post written on this blog and the others we had over the years, they were imported here so that’s why we know. And of course we find ourselves in a rather strange situation previously unknown. Therefore we thought it would be right to write a post about what happens next, when the Coronavirus lockdown is all over, and the timescales for that.
Firstly, for those of you reading in the USA and UK we are writing this from the future. Spain’s timeline of the Coronavirus has peaked at least for now and has turned downwards. This has been done with a huge lockdown...

Meanwhile, we have been adding properties onto the main website, refining the search parameters, using the tick boxes for features in each property, adding more photos and videos onto the site and speeding the site up so that it not only works quickly but it also works seamlessly on mobiles, tablets and computers. Hopefully you will like the work that has gone into it and can start choosing your
favourite properties for when we get back to showing you around properties. If you haven't looked recently take a look here and also take a look at our guide to the site here (We mentioned this post in our last email)
A Video Feast From Valencia

It has been a long time in lockdown here in Valencia, I’m not exactly sure but I think it’s 35 days as I write this. 35 days without strolling around Valencia, without sharing images of our beautiful city and the areas around it and 35 days without visiting and photographing any Valencia Property. Can you tell we are missing it?
Therefore I thought you might want some virtual Valencia. If you cannot see it currently then at least see it through the eyes of others....
