  • This video is all about Pego, Spain. I own two homes in Pego. The first I purchased for just under €20.000 and the second I purchased for €5.000. In this video I'll talk about why I love this little town, the stores, how to get around, and home prices. I think you'll love the little town of Pego, Spain!

    Hi, I love Pego too. I bought an old townhouse there 7 years ago and absolutely love it and yes the Indian is just the best one ever also the owners at the Casino Bar are so nice and always welcoming. We’re from the UK and are back there end of November for 3 months, can’t wait 👍

    Just discovered your channel today and yes, subscribed :) My wife (born in Chile - parents from Spain) and I are going to be relocating 'somewhere' in Spain. So, Thank you for introducing us to Pego, and we look forward to exploring your Channel. We will be in Spain the month of September looking at Real Estate. If you can recommend a RE Agent/Lawyer to assist us, we'd appreciate it... bunches!!

    Hi, it seams very lovely 🥰. Is it possible to renovate a house and sell it for profit? Would it take long to sell? Thank you ☺️

    • @traveltomoney
      @traveltomoney  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, it is possible. You have to keep in mind that you pay about 25% capital gains tax if you sell, and homes here don't sell for massive amounts, but there could still be a small profit. 🙂

    Is it safe to lock and go an empty property in Pego? I heared about squaters in Spain.

    • @traveltomoney
      @traveltomoney  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi there! It's pretty important to make sure your property is secure. Squatters usually prey upon the most vulnerable people, for example, an older woman who may not visit her property often. On my street, we have a Whatsapp group with a lot of members who just look out for each other's properties. It's not common that anything happens, but making friends in the area is really helpful.

    Hi were travelling to pego in June to look at property to renovate , in particular a house where the agent has advised that its mainly a Romani area , from your experience are these areas friendly?

    • @traveltomoney
      @traveltomoney  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Ian, it sounds like you're probably looking at a house on my street. I haven't had any major problems, and many of the families you mentioned are very kind, however, there are a few who are outliers. I've never found it to be dangerous or anything like that, but some people feel more comfortable than others. There are also a lot of expats on the street.

    For the people that own property in Spain: how do you deal with the constant threat of okupas? Seems like a hassle to me to be on constant look out for people moving into your house. You have to call the police within 24 hours for the police to do anything about it. Even if you just leave for a weekend, you’ll have to constantly check cameras. I don’t know how that works out but reading news it seems like a total mess. Even happens to renters…come back after vacation and their rental is occupied and if it is for more than 24hrs you are out of luck.

      The agent for my first purchase was the one also selling the house. I asked him to represent us both since I was making a full price offer. Unfortunately, he has since retired. 😔

      I bought my first house in Pego in 2018 for 20k, my second house in 2022 for $5k, and my third house in 2023 for $9k. The street isn't awesome, but the views are amazing. The first house was the best deal because it needed very little work. I think for anyone wanting a house they can move into with only minor renovations, you need at least $50k. The last two homes I bought were directly from owners, so no added agent costs.

      Are you even talking about something from this video? Your comment doesn't fit the content of the video at all. You're very clearly a rude and disrespectful person. Everything I talk about in all my videos is my true experience. I'm sorry if you've been so jaded by life that you aren't capable of processing authenticity. But may I suggest that in future comments that you ask questions instead of making incorrect assumptions.
