Spanish Property Comments & Questions
January 29th, 2008
We’ve launched a couple of new features on Kyero.com to help you research Spanish property and to enable you to help others do the same.
Last week I mentioned the Get Answers form on just about every page of Kyero.com.
It’s a simple idea – you want to know something about Spain or an aspect of the property market here and you ask us.
We do our best to answer and, if your question is of interest to other people, we’ll publish the details (without any of your personal information of course).
Don’t have a question? but you do have some knowledge or opinion about Spain which would benefit others?
Now you can use Kyero.com to spread the word.
Whenever you search for property, look for the About .. box on the left hand side. This box will always lead you to specific information about your current location.
We’ve had these map, weather, prices, airports and schools pages for a while now – but now you can add your comments for the benefit of other visitors. It’s really easy and quick to do.
Can you imagine how much more all of us would know about Spain, how much more confidence we would all have in buying or renting property here if we all shared our individual nuggets of knowledge about the locations familiar to each of us?
How much safer would you feel about buying a property in a particular town if you could read frank comments from people who already live there?
Here’s what you won’t read on these pages. No blatantly promotional blurb singing the praises of a location (unless supported by hard facts). No abusive or offensive or unfounded comments, no SPAM.
We’ve expanded the Kyero.com team so that we can manually review each comment to make sure it’s helpful and relevant. Will you help us get started by sharing the knowledge you have about Spain with everyone else?
You don’t need to write a lengthy essay (but you can if you want to). The more that you (and thousands like you) contribute, the more useful these pages will be for everyone. More information leads to a more transparent and safe Spanish property market.
Here are a few of my own ‘get the ball rolling’ comments. We’ve lived in Almuñecar for almost six years now and before that we spent a year in Begur, on the Costa Brava. I’ve kicked off with some snippets of knowledge I wanted to share about each location.
I’ll add more as I go along, bit by bit, and I hope that you will too. Don’t be put off by the sea of blank pages with no comments – someone has to start – it might as well be you!
We will publish every comment, even if we don’t agree with them ourselves, as long as they’re constructive, based on personal experience or fact and potentially useful to other people.
