LONG TERM RENTAL INCOME
Are you looking to sell your property and finding it hard? Perhaps you are getting offers that you cannot afford to accept, or worse still that nobody is actually showing any interest at all, but you are still having to pay the bills and possibly also a mortgage?

Well the truth is that prices will not rise for at least a couple of years yet. So why not do the sensible and prudent thing and hold on to your property until you are able to obtain a realistic price when you wish to sell. You need to gain an income to pay the Bills by taking on a Long term let. We have many clients on our Books just waiting for Long Term Properties !!!!

If interested please e-mail: [email protected] with basic details of your property plus a contact telephone number.

Tramps & Tarts Party

Following the great success of The Red Ball in May and with cooler weather now, Paul Cunningham Nurses have organised their first evening event on Saturday, 29th October and will be having a Tarts and Tramps Party Night at The Marjal (just off the N332 at Guardamar). Dan the Man, who is a great all round entertainer, will be our singer and compere for the evening. Tickets are €15 for a three course meal with wine.

Please let us know as soon as you can if you would like to come as we hope this will be another sell out event! [email protected] or call 639 318 526

Camera Course for beginners

If you have bought yourself a new camera - even a fairly 'simple' one, you have probably discovered there are so many beeps and whistles on it you don't understand, that you stick to the 'auto' button and hope for the best.
If you want to make the most of your camera and turn it into a pleasurable and possibly profitable hobby, why not consider taking a course and really learn how to use it?
David Stokes and Paul Ashton are the people to talk to, and you can call David on 649 613 517 or take a look at www.photogenics-cb.net for more information.

Complete beginners are very welcome as well as more experienced artists.

Amazon to Open in Spain – Big Changes Ahead?

According to the press, Amazon is due to open in Spain on Sept. 15th. This is hardly surprising – all over Madrid you see MRW vans delivering Amazon packages every day, and it isn’t just expats like me buying English books. Many Spanish people have been turning to Amazon for some time to ship better priced electronics to Spain with the minimum of fuss and good guarantees: cameras etc are generally cheaper on Amazon than from major retailers here. Apparently one million Spaniards already visit Amazon websites every month.

Importantly, Amazon opening in Spain could have huge implications for the Spanish on- and off-line market.

First of all e-commerce is way behind in Spain, and one of the reasons I’ve always posited for this is that Spain never had Amazon. I believe that Amazon.co.uk/.com/.fr/.de has had a huge role in fostering trust in ecommerce in those countries. Buying on-line in the US or the UK is largely considered normal, safe, and reliable thanks to Amazon, whereas here in Spain it is still not considered a normal way to shop amongst large sectors of the population.

Spain sits about 3 times behind the UK in terms of ecommerce. Online sales accounted for only 3% of all retail sales in Spain in 2010, whereas in the UK online sales accounted for 10% of all sales in the same year.

First quarter online retail sales in Spain were up 23.1% this year with respect to 2010 first quarter sales, but Spain still lags a long way behind. Amazon opening in Spain could change that in the same way it helped develop ecommerce in countries like the UK – by doing things well, efficiently, and offering generally great customer service.

The question is, if Amazon Spain brings these same important retail values to Spain (good customer service, efficient product delivery etc), could it have a knock on effect for off-line retailers as well, as Amazon sets new higher standards (e.g. in returns policies and customer service) not always seen here before?

Who knows, but one thing is for sure, I would be worried if I ran any kind of books/electronics/household goods ecommerce site in Spain right now – the bar is about to be lifted significantly, and Amazon is going to make other online operators who aren’t providing an immaculate service already, look pretty bad, very quickly.

Personally I think this is great news, I hope Amazon does in Spain everything it’s been able to do elsewhere – offering the same range of products, good customer service, and guarantees. We’ll find out what they have in store for us on September 15th.
