The first thing a property buyer will look for is appreciation, distance from airports ,and rentability. It\u2019s not all about coastal properties either, as some of the quaint interior villages rent for a premium in the summer months which also makes them a good buy for the investor or expatriate.<\/p>\n

This area of Catalonia is not cheap; it attracts the more discerning clientele. However, if you look hard enough, you can pick up a wonderful 2- or 3-bedroom villa tucked away among pine trees with a backdrop of mountains just a few moments from the coast for a reasonable price.<\/p>\n

One of the most popular areas for foreign purchases on the Costa Brava is the charming old town of Begur. It\u2019s walking distance to stunning beaches, has a character and warmth that visitors love, and its pi\u00e8ce de r\u00e9sistance<\/em> is an ancient castle ripe for exploration. Plus, properties close to here offer really good rental potential. The town is a regular on the festival circuit which ensures that rentability is high for many weeks of the year.<\/p>\n
