He’s an interesting idea that I read about in an article yesterday: if you are not too sure about a property you are thinking of buying in Spain or elsewhere abroad, why not see if you can move in for a few days, or even for just one night? Sometimes things that look perfect in the sunshine by day, have a very different feel at night and early the next morning!

Apparently we spend less time buying a property than a car (or even at times a pair of shoes!), and following our gut reactions can be risky, particularly abroad when we are unfamiliar with a region.

Interestingly some agents are now accepting the wisdom of ‘trying before you buy’, and are offering this option to potential buyers. One agent, actually here in the Almeria region, is quoted in the article as saying: “”Staying in a place gives people the chance to see if it’s noisy at night, whether there are any funny smells or if they like the kitchen. People often buy the wrong property under pressure, or they buy off-plan, unseen, from a property exhibition in a hotel in England. They may be good for business, but they then often blame Spain or the Spanish for their mistake.”
