Background Valle Romano Golf Football Village Spain

Why O.L.G recommends The Football Village Spain:

Valle Romano Golf and Resort is located just outside Estepona, on the South Coast of Spain. It is easily accessible from major road networks and 3 major airports (Gibraltar – 20 mins, Malaga - 40 mins and Jerez, 1 hr). The area is developing fast with a number of golf and commercial developments due to complete within the next 12 months. Prices reflect the developing nature of the area and whilst it is just 20 minutes drive from Marbella and Puerto Banus, apartments there are 60-80% more expensive.

Valle Romano is a 150 hectares site which will play host to over 3000 apartments, townhouses and villas as well as an enviable list of facilities. This includes 27 holes of championship golf, an exclusive 5 star hotel, a state of the art spa and gymnasium, extensive swimming, football and tennis facilities, a commercial centre with bars, restaurants and shops; gated security and concierge facilities plus an onsite property and rental management company

The Village is an exclusive area of the development which will contain 1100 state of the art fully furnished apartments. All the apartments face directly onto the championship golf course with views of the sea and mountains behind. The beach is also less than half a mile away. All apartments are fully furnished with a choice of styles and colour schemes. They range in size from 63m2 -72m2 built with additional terraces of 25 – 125m2. Prices range from €215k to €430k or £145k to £300k. These can be secured with just a 20% deposit and nothing more to pay until completion, when interest only mortgages are available for the final 80%.

Football Village
This development is marketed and promoted by Football Village, who have exclusive rights to the properties there. The business uses the endorsement and inherent marketing collateral in leading UK football clubs and celebrities to add consumer confidence in the overseas property buying process. The football club endorsement is an extremely strong purchase motivator with buyers acknowledging that they would not put their name to something lightly but also by the emotional angle of wanting to become involved in a project which was closely tied in with their club. The concept was successfully piloted with Arsenal, where a smaller development sold 70% of the apartments after just 9 months.

Football Village has since spent 6 months interviewing and researching developers and developments across Spain for a wider project involving more clubs. Once a project and developer were selected, the clubs then commissioned a full due diligence survey on the land and the developer to ensure they were putting their name to something where the risk was minimal. The Overseas Living Group has seen and reviewed this due diligence and it is freely available for all our investment clients.

The football link up should ensure a vibrant sales, re-sales and rental market. Other celebrity endorsements add to this credibility – Seve Ballesteros has himself bought a block of 25; England Goalkeeper, Paul Robinson has bought and will endorse the football academy on the site and Sky Sports’ Jeff Stelling is the figurehead for the project. A number of other players and ex-players have also bought. Football Village has contracts with each club which include a requirement to use the site for pre- or mid-season training camps. They also include the option for buyers to rent their property to club supporters. It is for these reasons that The Overseas Living Group recommend reserving apartments early.
