Property Websites for Italy or Spain

14 replies

I want to check out property prices in Italy and Spain, but when I do google searches it comes up with so much dross it's impossible to trawl through it all ... does anyone know of any good websites featuring a decent selection of property for sale?

something similar to La Porta Verde ?

How are you btw? Long time no see!

Rightmove.co.uk may help you to get a better idea. Though I wouldn't trust property websites for property abroad as you can never be sure why something is low/high valued until you see the location yourself. AS a general rule, something that looks unexpensive in out-of-London's-prices parameters has most of the times a down side (inaccessible, in the middle of nowhere, no facilities, or in a really bad area).

but I'm more interested in Italy - especially comparing prices on Med coast with similar on Adriatic - i'm guessing the adriatic is cheaper but i'm not sure

But Roberto lives in Liverpool sd

Hello SD, long time - no Italian. Spanish now then huh?
I have wondered often...Why do most Spanish properties have an enormous laundry sink in the utility room?? The apartment we have just returned from even had a washboard type thing to one side - but an automatic washing machine too.

spacedonkey · 27/06/2005 14:52

tinker - ok so roberto is in liverpool, but in italy THERE'S A WHOLE COUNTRY FULL OF ROBERTOS!

i would prefer italy, but dp wants to look at spain as well

gingerbear, i'm signing up for an italian evening class, i haven;t got the discipline to do it by myself - how are you getting on with it?

I think I will have to do the same SD, but having just returned from a lovely part of Spain, I want to learn proper Spanish now too, not just my Collins Phrasebook 'Is there a campsite near here?' and 'My lightbulb is not working' (Why are phrasebooks so USELESS!!)

DH and I POSL at the AA phrasebook in the apartment. It had two full pages of chat-up lines from ' Hello, you have a beautiful smile' to 'Yes, lets do it but only if you wear a condom' and 'I am scared of getting AIDS'
