My wife and I left Spain in 2018 to live in Australia. We married in Gibraltar after she had lived in Spain for 18 years and I for 3 years. Australia, where I have lived since 1984, has turned into a Police State and as such we wish to look at moving back to Spain and see Vinuela as a good destination. We are looking at the site "Inland Andalucia" and have selected a number of properties to pursue, however, we notice large price reductions and many places for sale unlike the Costa Blanca area where we lived before (Pedreguer).

We would love to email with people in the area and gain a view of the area post Brexit etc. To this end our names are Ann and Jeff Sale, email Spurley@gmail.com We are currently living in Hervey Bay , Queensland. Look forward to hearing from people, thanks in advance

Property value hard to judge is Spain, it's all about horse trading, the advertised prices do not reflect what they really sell for and 'the economy is very depressed', QE in other countries has caused a property boom, 'but not in Spain'. In UK the advertised price can be pretty close and what's great, you can see the location and check out on google maps. Agents here like people to call them, arrange a meeting at the property & when you get there, you can find it's a duff location, but the deal is they then want to find somewhere else, nothing is straight forward. All this is tricky with you now in Australia. However, my main point being the prices you see will not reflect the true value. Good luck.
