Carter Jonas goes International

Ever increasing numbers of us are heading to southern Europe for holidays and short breaks. The strength of the pound and the ease of making travel arrangements instantly online mean that more people than ever are actively looking to invest in their own piece of paradise.
David Eckersley, a partner at Carter Jonas, believes that “more people are coming around to the idea that buying a property abroad can be both a sound and enjoyable investment, especially at the higher end of the market.
“Uncertainty surrounding the UK’s property market and a lack of availability of property – whether for investment purposes or as a primary or secondary home – means that we have seen a marked increase in the numbers of people enquiring about homes abroad.”
Carter Jonas has joined Leading Real Estate Companies of the World – one of the world’s leading property networks – in order to offer excellent connections and local expertise for the marketing of quality property abroad to our clients.
Carter Jonas’ International Division will initially focus on actively marketing properties in Spain, France and Portugal, three of the most popular destinations for UK property buyers and each with recognised market infrastructures. To this end, the firm will be working closely with local partners: Rimontgó and Diana Morales Properties in Spain, International Realty Group in Portugal and Lamy Services Immobiliers in France.
Each of these partners is well established and immensely knowledgeable about their local markets, often being the first port of call for international buyers and sellers in their countries. These alliances will enable Carter Jonas to offer the kind of specialist knowledge that is invaluable to buyers, ranging from the legalities and nuances of the local property market, to the practicalities of moving house.
One of the first properties to be marketed by Carter Jonas is a stunning five-bedroom, five-bathroom villa in Andalusia, Spain. Combining the latest facilities and comforts with traditional Andalusian-Spanish design, the villa is set in an elevated hillside position which overlooks the entire bay of Javea and offers a magnificent daytime panorama of sea, beaches and rocky cliffs.
The property is being marketed with a guide price of €3,400,000. This property and others are available to view online at carterjonas.co.uk/international.
