Gloria from HomeEspaña then assisted the Dobbses with the buying process, referring them to a currency transfer firm and independent lawyer, to whom they appointed power of attorney.
“We can’t praise Gloria enough,” added Leighton. “When we came out to Spain after completion it was a Sunday and the HomeEspaña office was shut. But she ensured we could get into our new home by leaving the keys in a key safe.”
Leighton and Susan’s two-storey house, which came furnished, is on a small complex with a communal pool. They have a solarium, as well as a garden area and terrace at the front.
“We especially liked the layout and the way it was decorated,”said Leighton. “We like being near the beaches and La Zenia Boulevard, and we can walk to all amenities, including shops, restaurants and cafés.”
The couple envisage using their Spanish holiday home at least two or three times a year, and they will let their children enjoy it too.
