Yes, the prices will plummet, I have a FRIEND WHO HAS A 140,000 EURO MORTAGE ON A FLAT IN A BLOCK WHere flats are now selling for 40,000 or less.try not to buy into a communidad, it,s a nightmare. The spanish know all the rules, ie, you cannot be evicted if you have children, etc. and they generally form a clique.The estate agent will tell you the community fees are half of what they eventually turn out to be.
Look on a site called Propieadades embaragados.this is a site that lists all the repossessed properties.Plus all the banks have their own properties listed, but usually at silly prices.If i had it all to do over again, and know what i know now, i, d actually rent.You can get good long term reals in the winter.And let someone else worry about the bill, upkeep etc.I have been here 15 years, and the only thing i,d change is i,d never live in a community.And most importantly, learn a bit of the lingo. And good luck, need any advice, feel free to contact me.
