We have recently launched an advertising campaign promoting the great value for money that property in this area offers at the moment. For example, a one-bedroom apartment on one of the best beaches in Spain can be purchased for as little as €78,000.
Our creative department produced some great eye-catching banners which will be placed on our terrace in front of the office and we will be out there trying to pique the interest of passing trade.
We will surely generate some business from this initiative, and what’s more, we will have great fun doing it!

Settling down at MRI’s new office in San Javier
Now that we have settled into our new office serving the Costa Blanca, Cálida and Almería, it is time to take full advantage of the significant amount of passing trade expected throughout August.
The new office is the centrepiece of a brand-new commercial zone known as the 525 Square, which is named after the beautiful new four-star hotel that dominates the area, used by many of our clients here on inspection trips.
Many members of our sales team have been loaned-out to other regions which may be busier than us during the summer months, but everyone remaining on the team here – including management, administration and after-sales staff – are all getting stuck in and into the spirit of things.

The Faro Bike Rally 2008 brings the masses to Portugal
The smell of petrol and exhaust fumes filled the air this July in Faro as, for the 27th year running, tens of thousands of bikers came from all over the world to participate in Europe’s largest biker rally.
The event showcased gleaming Harleys, Hondas and Kawasakis paraded by proud owners, and even rusty old mopeds were dragged from the recesses of garages. The town was pumping with adrenalin and excitement as bike fanatics, locals and anyone who has ever owned, sat on, or looked at a motorbike before came out to partake in the festivities.
Bikers from Madeira were also able to join the four-day party, bringing their motorcycles with them on the new Funchal-Portimao ferry crossing, and they were not disappointed!
Tents and marquees were erected, kiosks and bars set up, businesses welcomed the influx of trade, road safety was, of course, adhered to at all times, and the party was made complete by a constant string of shows and concerts – including the super-popular Joe Cocker, much to everyone’s joy!
The final day saw hefty, tattooed men; beautiful, scantily-clad women; families; teenagers; and pensioners alike saying their goodbyes, packing their belongings and riding into the distance, leaving a cloud of dust in their wake. Until next year…

Confirmation of construction of new marina in Cyprus
The long-awaited confirmation of the new Paphos marina was finally announced recently.
Construction has been awarded to a well-established property developer, and the marina will have berths for 1000 vessels, as well as a restaurant, bar and car-park.
The great news is that, according to a Cypriot newspaper, property investors who own homes in the surrounding land have seen their Cypriot real estate triple in value since the decision was made.
This bodes very well for anybody interested in investment property in Cyprus, and we are delighted to pass on the news.

“Jumbo” supermarket to open in the Dominican Republic
It has been announced that a new mega-supermarket will be opening in the Bavaro/Punta area, which will sell international products. If this does indeed come about, it means that supermarket shopping in the Dominican Republic will offer tourists, retirees and second-home owners more familiarity and variation.
It is comforting for our homeowners in this region to think of being able to relax in exotic surroundings, miles away from mortgages, school runs and work, and still being able to walk into a supermarket and recognise what is in front of them. What luxury!
