Yesterday (19th October 2018) had to be one of the best days ever in terms of good news for San Miguel!! For 3 reasons:
1) The Sierra Escalona pine forest was finally granted protected countryside status (paisaje protegido) which is only one step away from being declared a full National Park. This will hopefully mean that the mining company that has applied to do test-drilling with a view to opening a gypsum (plaster of paris) mine in the area will have to look elsewhere for potential sites, and the wonderful flora and fauna of our beautiful Sierra Escalona will remain a pristine oasis of natural beauty!!
2) We found out that the proposed rubbish/recyclling plant for the Vega Baja region that might have been placed in San Miguel, will definitely not be, and will instead be located in Dolores. We know that rubbish plants/dumps have to be located somewhere, but nobody wants to be too close to them, if only to avoid the potential heavy traffic.
3. And finally, it was announced that San Miguel de Salinas will receive funding for a new infants school!
So, in all, a fantastic day!!

We reached another landmark last week which was very important to us. We became a limited company, Villas Fox S.L. ! It´s something we´ve been thinking about doing for a long time in order to present a more professional image, but we had doubts about the set-up costs, ongoing admin costs etc. However, after a long chat with our accountant, and weighing up the pros and cons, we decided that it was the right thing for us to do, and so initiated the process (which involved submitting a list of 5 possible names, in order of preference, and hoping that our first choice was not already taken or conflicted with an existing company). A couple of weeks later, we got the good news that Villas Fox S.L. had been temporarily reserved for us, and so we had to lodge the initial capital with the bank, and go to the notary to sign the company title deeds. But that wasn´t the end of it. We then had to wait for the company deeds to be accepted by, and registered with the Alicante registro mercantil (merchants register). Finally, last week we received notification that this had been formalised, and that is the piece of paper that Sorelle is holding in the photo! Onwards and upwards (hopefully!)

We recently made the bold decision to stop promoting all resale properties except our own direct-with-owner listings! This has drastically reduced the number of properties on display on our website, but means that
-
OUR BUYERS will be reassured that they only have to deal with ONE agency, rather than several, and that we will have the latest information and detail on the properties they are interested in, because we are in direct contact with the owners.
-
OUR SELLERS will be reassured that we will focus 100% of our energy on selling their properties, rather than properties from other agencies.
We didn´t take this decision lightly, but we hope that it will be one that will bring benefits to all our clients, and improve our reputation as an honest and reliable local estate agency you can trust!
