Weather in Ojen (Marbella, Malaga, Spain)
Posted by Nikki in Bargain Properties, Ojen weather, Property, Townhouse, Villa, Website on September 3, 2009
The weather this year has remained warmer than previous years, and now we are into September the temperatures are still in the low 30 deg. C. The nights are lowering to around 22 deg. C. and still not a jacket or jumper in sight! This is a delightful time of year. There is around a 20% chance of rain next Sunday, and if this happens it will be short lived but will freshen the air beautifully. K&N are looking forward to meeting our clients who are scheduled to visit us to view properties in September, and we will try and make their time spent with us enjoyable and constructive.

K&N have noticed a rapid increase in enquiries this month for properties in general in Ojen, not just our advertised bargain properties, but over the entire range. We think this may be due to the increased value of the Pound to the Euro, maybe the horrendous British Summer, and definately we are getting French and German clients as their countries have made an earlier recovery from the European recession. Once our last couple of bargain properties have sold, Ojen prices seemed to have reached a natural level. Only 10 minutes from Marbella, with its mountain location and lower cost of living, Ojen is still one of the Costa Del Sols favourite inland locations.
Ojen (Marbella, Malaga, Spain)

During the well publicised Ojeando music festival in Ojen last weekend, we had the opportunity to speak to many of the excited visitors who had made their way to Ojen for the event. The first observation we made was that most were very surprised to discover how closely we are situated to Marbella (approx 9kms, or 10 minutes). The second observation was that they could not believe how the largely Spanish community welcomed visitors. And finally how cheap it was for them to eat and drink in the local bars and restaurants. Some made their way up by car, as parking is available free in the 2 large municipal parking areas, others by the regular daily bus service to and from Marbella, and others by taxi. Many asked about the property prices in Ojen and were pleasantly surprised, and they had already made their own minds up that they could easily integrate into this friendly village of Ojen. K&N have also noticed that our internet enquiries have increased, as have office enquiries. This we believe is partly due to a renewed interest in owning a Spanish rural property at a bargain price, and the stronger pound (this morning 1.1660 Euros to the Pound as quoted by HIFX) makes a purchace more attractive.

Bargain Properties in Marbella (Ojen, Malaga, Spain)
Posted by Keith in Apartment, Bargain Properties, Ojen Activities, Ojen Music, Property, Townhouse, Villa on July 3, 2009
There are still bargain properties available to purchase in Marbella, but here at K&N we feel the absolute bargains available are to be found slightly inland in the beautiful villages such as Ojen, which is only 10 minutes from the beaches of Marbella, has fantastic views to the coast, has a far lower cost of living, much cleaner environment, fantastic amenities, sports facilities, its own medical centre and finally, varied entertainment throughout the year provided by the very proud council of Ojen.
K&N have properties in Ojen from as little as 98,000 Euros. View our website: http://www.kandnpropertybuying.com or call (0034) 686 031207 or (0034) 952 881628 for more information.
Bargain Villa in Marbella (Ojen, Malaga, Spain)
K&N have just been asked to list a fabulous villa, high on the mountains of Ojen, but only 5 minutes to Marbella, Costa del Sol. The views from this villa are breathtaking, looking over the beaches of Marbella, to the mountains of Africa. The villa is approached through its own private electric gates, up a 100 metre drive to the secluded villa. The villa is set in approximately 3,000m2 of lush land, with a nice lawned area to the pool, which has its own poolside bar area.
This villa is built to approximately 300m2 in a typical andulucian style, and of the highest qualities. The main part of the house consists of a huge kitchen (fully fitted), large lounge, 2 fully fitted en-suite bedrooms with terraces, separate guest suite on the ground floor, and large covered terrace to the gardens. Garage and outside parking. This villa is not on an urbanisation, thus is not liable for community fees, which can often be very high.
This can be purchased for the bargain price of 1,000,000 Euros.

Spain: Paradise Lost (ITV) or Paradise found in Ojen? (Marbella, Malaga, Spain)
What did K&N make of part 2 of ITVs Spain: Paradise Lost?
Firstly, I must say our hearts went out for the elderly community near Almeria who had been encouraged to buy their dream retirement homes, only to find out years later that they had been built on rustic land and now face demolition. I was pleased to see the local Mayor was getting involved to help these people, but the final decision will be made at a much higher and less personal level. The way to avoid this happening is if you see a potential development being planned in a remote, quiet and beautiful location, always get the land classification checked. This can easily be done by any lawyer, in the case of Almeria with the Junta de Andalucia, or the provincial government for all other provinces of Spain.
The next observation was the way people seemed to nievely imagine you can purchase a business in Spain and have instant success by relying on the ex-pat community. Just remember there are a lot more Spanish than ex-pats in Spain. Look for a business that appeals to both communities. With Spanish approval for your business, I guarantee it will run smoother and be more successful, but dont regard a business here as having a working holiday, it wont be, the hours are long and the conditions are more gruelling than what we were used to in the UK.
One part of the programme left me lost for words and very happy that the vast majority of Spanish people would not have seen this programme; the ex-pat ghettos of the Costa Blanca and the attitude of the people! They seemed to give little appreciation to the Spanish culture and only lacked an illuminated tower and a kiss-me quick hat!
Finally, it was well reported that Marbella, in the Costa Del Sol, has not sufferred the same downward spiral as many of the Spanish resorts and is still a favourite location for the English and Spanish alike. Kristina Szekely has been selling top end properties in Marbella for many years now and reported that top end properties are still in great demand due to the fabulous location. She was talking of properties in the millions of Euros, but bargain properties do still exist in Marbella and slightly inland, Ojen for example.
K&N Property Buying Services have Apartments from 98,000 Euros, Townhouses from 150,000 Euros and Villas from 600,000 Euros, and none further than 15 minutes from Marbella.
We hope you have found our opinions helpful. Keith & Nikki (K&N)

Daily Express HEAD FOR THE HILLS of Ojen
Posted by Keith in Apartment, Bargain Properties, News and Events, Property, Townhouse, Villa on June 5, 2009
Yesterday Andrea Watson (Daily Express property journalist) wrote a very good article about Ojen. K&N were interviewed, along with the property developer Mr Martin Needham, who is bringing the Champneys brand to Ojen (Marbella) and also Barbara Wood of Property Finders. Andrea has visited Ojen herself previously, and I think her article truly reflects the potential of this beautiful village.

Bargain Properties in Ojen (Marbella, Malaga, Spain)

K&N still have a few absolute bargain properties for sale. Most are being sold at around 30-35% discount from their original advertised price. These prices were largely set with the weak Euro to Pound exchange (early this year almost 1 Euro to 1 Pound Sterling) taken into consideration. As you are no doubt aware, the pound is recovering against the Euro. The rate this morning, 4th June 2009 was 1.15205 Euros to the Pound, which alone gives another 15% buying power, and the forecast is that the Pound will strengthen even more by mid Summer, some predictions as high as 1.250 Euros to the Pound. This is a great time to purchase before these prices have to be re-adjusted upwards. All prices are guaranteed as soon as a deposit is paid. Keep an eye on the exchange rate with our CURRENCY CONVERTER on this blog, and indeed view our website to see the bargain apartments, townhouses and villas available in Ojen, Marbella, Coin etc. Alternatively call us for friendly advice on (0034) 952 881628, (0034) 686 031207 or by E-Mail to help@kandnpropertybuying.com www.kandnpropertybuying.com
