    Visa Options, Best Areas, Abandoned Spas and a Whatsapp Event
    May 5 2024
    Welcome back to the Valencia Property podcast in what has been a monumental month in terms of sales, news and more in Spain. We'll get into it in the pod. In this month's pod we are talking about the news about Spain's Golden Visa finishing, at least for people looking to get it through buying property, the alternatives in terms of visas for coming to live in Spain for non EU clients and we start a new section this month all about neighbourhoods and towns in and around Valencia, one neighbourhood and one town each month until I get bored or run out of inspiration. In our Valencia story this month we are looking at the strange story of an abandoned spa in Chulilla and why hope is rising like a phoenix from the flames. Here are the articles mentioned in the Podcast. Options for Visas https://valencia-property.com/new/2023/03/13/your-visa-options-for-coming-to-spain/ 25 Years of VP https://valencia-property.com/new/2024/04/01/25-years-of-valencia-property/ Why we don't deal with rustic property https://valencia-property.com/new/2024/04/08/why-we-dont-deal-with-rustic-property/ The end of the Golden Visa https://valencia-property.com/new/2024/04/08/the-end-of-spains-golden-visa-announced/ Spain is Different Remember https://valencia-property.com/new/2024/04/15/spain-is-different-remember/ The Number One Realtor in Valencia for Americans https://valencia-property.com/new/2024/04/22/the-number-one-realtor-in-valencia-for-americans/

    Why Does Valencia Have the Biggest Garden in Spain? And More
    Apr 7 2024
    Welcome back to the latest Valencia Property podcast. We have reached April after the Fallas fiestas in Valencia and we are now at the end of Easter week where once more lots of people take lots of time off work. I'm actually recording this while away for a few days but I'll be back up and running next week and our whole team will also be back from their sojourns around Spain and Europe. Speaking of the team, this month we are talking to Jess about working with Valencia Property and have a word with Cath who runs Stepping Stone Rentals with me. We also take a look at the posts that you may have missed in the last couple of months after missing this out of last month's podcast and our Valencia story for this month is why Valencia has the biggest garden in Spain and it is there where we start. https://valencia-property.com/new/2024/02/05/the-first-step-to-buying-property-in-valencia-updated/ www.steppingstonerentals.com https://valencia-property.com/new/2021/02/05/we-are-your-buyers-agent-in-valencia/ https://valencia-property.com/new/2023/09/25/why-vpo-is-a-big-vp-no/ https://valencia-property.com/new/2021/07/04/why-we-dont-list-bank-properties-usually/
