00:00When it comes to finding that dream life in the sun...
00:03Isn't it stunning?
00:04..the Spanish costas are the place to be.
00:06My job is to sell the dream.
00:08So it's no surprise thousands of Brits make the move every year.
00:11Spain's a wonderful place to live.
00:13The sunshine just makes you feel happy.
00:15And the people making it all happen...
00:17Wow. Oh, we got a wow!
00:19..are the expat estate agents...
00:21This is it. This is the dream.
00:23..who already call Spain home.
00:25Oh, I can absolutely see myself here.
00:27In Alicante, it's the Rodriguez family.
00:30Cheers, girls. Well done.
00:33Over in Almeria, the Garners.
00:35Yeah! It's huge. He can have a party, isn't he?
00:39Up the coast in Mercia, the Browns.
00:42Action!
00:45Skylash.
00:45On the Costa Blanca North, the Aldertons.
00:48It's my new tie. What is that?
00:50And in sunny Malaga, the Hamiltons.
00:53The things I do for selling houses.
00:56They're not just selling the Spanish dream...
00:59We bought a house.
00:59We bought a house.
01:00In Spain.
01:01In Spain.
01:02They're living it to the full.
01:04Stop dreaming, start packing.
01:06Life is waiting for you here in Spain.
01:10Today, the Browns go full-on charm offensive.
01:14Very cute.
01:15Less about me, but what about the house?
01:18In Almeria, there's a full-on property hunt for the Garners.
01:21What a journey, quite literally, that we've been on.
01:26And Sean receives some full-on, hands-on help.
01:30Cheers!
01:36It's early December at Garner HQ.
01:40And Sean's been getting into the spirit of the season
01:43before Dad Steve arrives.
01:46Morning, Sean.
01:47Good morning.
01:48How are we?
01:49I am feeling the festive spirit.
01:52I can see it.
01:54The one thing I will say, it's colour-coded.
01:57It's corporate colours, which I like.
01:59Well done for that.
02:00The clients for today, everything prepped?
02:02Yes.
02:03I just need to go and fix the quiff,
02:05because these have messed up my hair, so...
02:11In the running for the Garners' help today
02:14are veterans of the aerospace industry Andy and Cathy,
02:17who are swapping Solihull for sunny Spain
02:20to live their best lives.
02:23We love to run together.
02:25I mean, it's so beautiful outside here.
02:27It's something we spend time together every morning.
02:30Yeah.
02:31This move now enables that opportunity to become real.
02:35And for these two runners,
02:37it's a case of moving fast to buy a permanent place pronto.
02:42We sold our house three days ago in the UK.
02:45We sold it by accident.
02:47We didn't mean to sell it.
02:49It wasn't on the market,
02:51and we had a lovely couple that wanted to buy it.
02:54We're actually homeless, so we need somewhere quickly.
02:58But finding a forever home to accommodate their foster dog Max
03:02and five visiting children will be a challenge for the couple,
03:06whose clashing property tastes are worlds apart.
03:10It will be fun as who's going to win.
03:13Ready to mediate a smooth house-buying process...
03:17Hello.
03:17Hello.
03:18..are Steve and son Sean.
03:22Welcome to Almaria.
03:24So, for both of our benefits, really,
03:26if you want to give us a rundown, really,
03:28of what you're looking for, that would be a good start.
03:30Looking for a three- or four-bedroom property
03:33with a reasonable-sized plot of land.
03:36OK.
03:38We'd like a pool, no near neighbours.
03:41What sort of budget are we working with?
03:43€400,000.
03:44Healthy budget.
03:45And let me ask, what style of property?
03:48Are you both looking for the modern sleek?
03:50I'd probably like more newer and shinier,
03:53and he probably likes more traditional.
03:55The luxury we've got here in this particular part of Spain
03:59is we do have the more modern villas,
04:01then we have the really traditional, like, farm-style properties,
04:04and, fingers crossed, we'll get you both on the same way.
04:07LAUGHTER
04:12Conflicting design choices aside,
04:14Sean's already lined up a place
04:16offering the large plot of land they want.
04:19All of this land you can see here,
04:21all this embankment...
04:22Right.
04:23..all the way along, that would all be private.
04:26OK.
04:2740 minutes in land, option one,
04:29near the rural town of Puerto Lombreras,
04:32is the modern villa Cathy wants,
04:34and its remoteness provides the privacy they've asked for.
04:39Welcome to property number one.
04:42The house looks lovely from the outside.
04:44I'm a bit concerned about some of those roads,
04:48but the location is beautiful.
04:50Yeah.
04:51It is beautiful.
04:52Well, let's see what your thoughts are of the house.
04:54So, follow us in and we'll see what you think.
05:24MUSIC CONTINUES
05:26with access to a terrace with incredible mountain views.
05:29And, as well as a pool area outside,
05:32the property comes with 20,000 square metres of land.
05:36Selling for 289,000 euros,
05:39it'd leave a hefty 110 grand to fill it
05:42with whatever furniture takes their fancy.
05:46So, come on in.
05:48Now, there is a slight echo because, of course, the house is empty,
05:51but we want to bring you straight into the main lounge of the house.
05:56Lovely.
05:57And I love the fact that you've got doors that open to outside.
06:01It's really...
06:01The flooring is...
06:03Beautiful.
06:04...lovely.
06:04Come on in here to what could be the kitchen.
06:09Yeah, this is nice.
06:11This is a nice, good size.
06:12Got the open doors there again.
06:15Yeah.
06:15It's all very clean and modern, isn't it?
06:19Yeah.
06:19If you want to lead out...
06:20OK.
06:21..and we'll have a look upstairs.
06:22OK.
06:26Oh, wow.
06:28Wow, that's...
06:29Another space.
06:31Yeah.
06:32And half.
06:34Well, basically, what this house is offering you
06:36is a potential bedroom
06:38with a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite.
06:42Just go and explore,
06:43and then we'll meet you out by the swimming pool again when you've finished.
06:47Lovely.
06:47All right?
06:48OK.
06:51Oh, wow.
06:52Oh, that's phenomenal.
06:54Imagine waking up to this every morning.
06:57I was really pleasantly surprised
06:59that they seem to agree on a lot of things.
07:02Like, they've got such a different and contrasting criteria,
07:05each of them,
07:06but they were, like, on the same page.
07:08Yeah.
07:08And that is a very good sign.
07:11Oh!
07:13Wow!
07:14That's OK.
07:15OK, so we've got an ensuite.
07:16I wasn't expecting that.
07:18Yeah.
07:19This, on paper, would maybe suit Cathy.
07:22Property number two will suit Andy,
07:24so they can battle it out, then.
07:28You've been on your walkabouts.
07:30We've had a good look round, yes.
07:32Yes.
07:33Good look round.
07:34It's very nice inside.
07:36Nicely finished.
07:37I absolutely love the house.
07:39So my only concern is how I would feel about driving,
07:43but maybe I've only come up here once.
07:45It's just confidence, I suppose, isn't it?
07:47Yeah, exactly.
07:47It is.
07:48Now, the asking price of the property.
07:50The all-important piece of information.
07:52Two hundred and eighty-nine thousand euros.
07:56OK.
07:57It's a great number one to start off with, guys.
08:00Great first day.
08:01Perfect.
08:02Well, let's head off and let's see what tomorrow brings.
08:04OK.
08:06Property One's positives were countered by Cathy's concerns
08:09over its extreme remoteness.
08:11Can the Garda boys find a better balance with option two?
08:20Coming up, things look brighter for Andy and Cathy.
08:24Oh, my.
08:25Oh, wow, what the size of a balcony.
08:29And Natalie Brown craves some flex appeal.
08:33Come on this way.
08:43For over two decades, property powerhouses Natalie and Darren Brown
08:48have called Magnificent Mercia their home.
08:51The Spanish lifestyle is exactly what you would think it is.
08:55Eating, drinking and sunshine.
08:57And with five kids between them...
08:59Shall we get ourselves onto the beat?
09:00Let's go.
09:00They certainly live life to the very max.
09:03It's about family and lifestyle and having fun.
09:06So, good roll.
09:06Yay!
09:08It's been a good day.
09:10When not living la vida loca,
09:12they and their team are selling the Spanish dream.
09:15It's on the market for 240,000.
09:19Finding our clients a perfect Spanish property
09:21is just the pinnacle of the job because it's life-changing.
09:24Does that mean that you want to buy it?
09:25Yes.
09:26Well done, guys.
09:27It's just a big celebration.
09:29It means the next chapter's about to start for them.
09:31Congratulations.
09:32We have a good time, miss.
09:34Good bonding.
09:34Teamwork makes a dream work.
09:40Today, Darren and Natalie are fresh back from a transatlantic trip to the Big Apple.
09:45And there's a chilled vibe in the air in more ways than one.
09:49Hello.
09:50Hello.
09:50We've got New York weather brought back with us.
09:53Yeah, I noticed a coat.
09:54Well, speaking of being back from New York, that incredible energy out there,
09:57we need to keep the energy going.
09:59We've got Debbie and Jordan today, haven't we?
10:01Mother and son.
10:02So, before that happens, let's grab a quick coffee, yeah?
10:05Right.
10:10That mother and son duo are Debbie from Bury, a retired finance professional, and Jordan
10:16from Manchester, who's here to keep Mum in check.
10:19We have a very open relationship, so if he doesn't like something I do, he'll tell me.
10:25Even though Mum does get on my nerves, she's the most unselfish person I've ever met,
10:29and all she wants to do is things for others.
10:32Yeah.
10:32Well, now, Debbie's priority is buying a holiday home on the Mar Menor,
10:37with Jordan eager to visit for a taste of Spanish life.
10:41I am a gut health scientist, so looking after the gut is a big thing for me,
10:46and the Mediterranean diet is probably the diet with the most scientific evidence behind it
10:51in terms of health benefits, and it's much easier to do when I'm here in Spain
10:55than it is back in the UK.
10:57Thanks, Mum.
10:58All right, son.
11:01When it comes to Debbie's gut instincts for the perfect Mediterranean pad,
11:05she's owned in Spain before, but now wants something different.
11:09The last property was in land.
11:11Unfortunately, it wasn't the right kind of area for the family,
11:15so the key to this search is looking for the right location.
11:21Determined to deliver Debbie her desired destination...
11:24I'm Debbie.
11:25Hi, Debbie.
11:25Hi.
11:26Well done, nice to meet you.
11:27..are Darren and Natalie.
11:30So, Mum and son...
11:31Yes?
11:32..you already own a place in Spain, or you did recently.
11:35We have just completed on Friday,
11:37so we've completed on a house that was inland.
11:40OK.
11:40The area wasn't right for the family.
11:42We want to be closer to the coast.
11:44We're ideally about 20 minutes maximum from the coast.
11:48At the moment, we're 45 minutes to an hour.
11:50Give us a wish list.
11:52Minimum of two bedrooms, some outdoor space.
11:55Mm.
11:55Preferably a pool, if not room for a pool.
11:59Mm-hm.
11:59And somewhere, you know, that's not a ghost town in winter
12:02and there's things to do.
12:03Right, OK.
12:04How much money have we got to spend?
12:05350,000 euros.
12:07OK.
12:07We've got three great properties to show you,
12:09so we'll go and start with property number one.
12:11OK.
12:11Lovely.
12:14With proximity to the beach and a lively location top priority,
12:19the Browns have it all to do to get ex-finance professional Debbie
12:22to part with her rather chunky sum of petty cash.
12:27We're going to start out of the town just because you get a slightly
12:32bigger property and a bit more of your money, but let's have a look.
12:35We're going to start somewhere.
12:37Option one is around a ten-minute drive from the seaside
12:40near the bustling town of Los Alcáceres in the quieter suburb of Dolores.
12:47Right, come on, straight in.
12:50It's property number one.
12:51OK.
12:52Nice-looking house.
12:53Yeah, very nice.
12:54Yeah, for the outside.
12:55Can't wait to get in and see.
12:57Good start.
12:57Yes.
12:58Well, let's get inside.
12:59OK.
12:59Let's see if we can keep it going.
13:01OK.
13:03Offering number one is a three-bedroom uber-modern villa.
13:08Inside is an open-plan layout with a stylish kitchen,
13:11dining area and living room.
13:14The main bedroom has its own en-suite,
13:16whilst two other bedrooms in the property share a family bathroom.
13:21The outside space has the pool Debbie wants,
13:23as well as plenty of areas to chill in the Spanish sunshine when it's not cloudy.
13:29But the pièce de résistance for this property is a rooftop terrace,
13:33featuring an outdoor kitchen for Jordan to rustle up some gut-friendly food in.
13:39Including furniture and fittings, it's selling for €380,000.
13:44€30,000 over budget, but Darren and Natalie think a deal could be done with the vendor.
13:51OK.
13:54Come on in.
13:57There we go.
13:58Yeah.
13:58It's very clean, very modern.
14:01Yeah, yeah.
14:02So it's open-plan, which generally is what people like for a holiday home.
14:06Does it suit you guys?
14:07Very much so.
14:08We're open-plan here and at home, so, yeah.
14:11It's very nice.
14:14I mean, it's the main bedroom.
14:17What do you think?
14:18Very good.
14:18Yeah.
14:18Very nice.
14:19OK.
14:20Yeah, I do like this size.
14:22And with a nice view of the pool out there.
14:24Yeah, very nice.
14:25Yeah.
14:25Wake up in the morning, swim 25 lengths, off you go.
14:28That's what you want.
14:29Yeah, that's what I do now.
14:30Yeah, no, no, I'm liking this.
14:32Very nice.
14:32Good.
14:33We're going to go onto the roof terrace.
14:34Nice.
14:39Mmm.
14:40So a real bonus space.
14:42Yes.
14:42Yes.
14:43Wasn't expecting it to be this big.
14:45No.
14:46What about the location, Debbie?
14:47Seems nice and quiet.
14:48But it feels very Spanish-y where we are, so, yeah, I'm liking what I see.
14:52There's more house.
14:53Go and explore.
14:54Thanks.
14:59OK, so let's have a look in the kitchen.
15:02Yeah, everything you need.
15:04It's nice.
15:04It's modern, isn't it?
15:05Yeah, yeah, it's lovely.
15:06I think they're thinking, actually, that this is quite a nice house, do you?
15:09Yeah, I think they like it.
15:12So, Jordan's second bedroom.
15:13Yeah, I think it's a nice size.
15:15I do think it's a good size.
15:16You've got a little bit of furniture there.
15:17I mean, they're holding back slightly, and that might be because it's property one.
15:21Mm-hm.
15:21A good start.
15:22Good start.
15:23Well done.
15:23Well done, you.
15:26So you've had a good look around?
15:28We have.
15:28What do you think?
15:29Did you stay positive?
15:30Very positive.
15:31Yeah.
15:31Yeah, I don't think we've found a negative.
15:34And what about you, Jordan?
15:35Yeah, really impressed.
15:37Two amazing outdoor spaces.
15:39Yeah.
15:40Just needs a little bit of injection of the Spanish charm, and I think, yeah.
15:43So it's on the market for £380,000.
15:46OK.
15:46It comes fully furnished.
15:48What do you think of the price?
15:49Yeah, we had a discussion.
15:51We did think it'd be slightly over, sort of, budget.
15:54So we're not surprised by that.
15:55Yeah.
15:56Lovely.
15:56Yeah.
15:56All right, ready?
15:57Let's go.
15:58OK.
15:59A strong start for the Browns, but can they find something equally as impressive in an
16:03even better location for Property 2?
16:16In Almeria, the Garner family are helping Andy and Cathy from Solihull to find a forever
16:21home for a budget of €400,000.
16:26Property 1 appealed to Cathy's modern decor desires, but it was a bit too out in the sticks
16:31for her.
16:32So my only concern is how I would feel about driving.
16:36Seeking a less secluded property for Cathy, option two is in the charming Andaluthian village
16:42of La Alphakia, and delivers the traditional interior that Andy wants.
16:48OK, into property number two.
16:51Ooh.
16:53Ooh, that looks interesting.
16:56This is definitely my kind of property.
17:02That kind of look, that kind of vibe.
17:05Yeah.
17:06So shall we head in and get your first impression of an entrance hallway?
17:10That's all I'm going to say, so I'm listening here.
17:16Property 2 is a four-bed villa full of rustic charm.
17:20With Andaluthian style oozing throughout, a grand entrance hall leads into a cosy living space
17:27in an open-plan layout with a fully-fitted kitchen.
17:31For sleeping, a grand-floor bedroom has an en suite, and another bedroom has use of a downstairs
17:38bathroom.
17:39A further two bedrooms are upstairs, the main has a gorgeous en suite, whilst a fourth bathroom
17:45adds to the plenty of places for guests to soak up the style.
17:50Outside, a sun terrace features mountain views, and within a large garden, there's a covered
17:56porch space for entertaining.
17:58It doesn't have a pool, but on the market for €340,000, it'd leave them with a cool
18:05£60,000 to put one in.
18:07Come on in through to the main grand entrance hallway.
18:14Oh, wow!
18:18Wow.
18:19Yes.
18:19OK.
18:20It's a wow.
18:21This is...
18:22It is, really.
18:23This is...
18:24Yeah.
18:26Into the living space.
18:28Now, what's your thoughts about having an open-plan living area?
18:32Yeah.
18:33It works?
18:34Yeah, I think so, yeah.
18:35You're very quiet, Kathleen.
18:37I know, I'm just like, I'm looking at all the doors open and everywhere.
18:41It's just very grand.
18:42Yes, it does, doesn't it?
18:44OK.
18:44We'll head straight upstairs, and we'll have a look.
18:47OK.
18:48In here, we've got the primary suite.
18:52So, again, it's the features of this house that they've really taken time and care on.
18:59Yeah, it's beautiful.
19:02Good.
19:03OK.
19:04I'm just trying to...
19:05Breathe it all in.
19:07Yeah.
19:07Wow.
19:11Oh.
19:11Oh, wow.
19:13What the size of a balcony.
19:14Oh.
19:16Oh.
19:18Absolutely beautiful.
19:19What a reaction.
19:21It was just wows and fantastics and, yeah.
19:24We're just on to a winner.
19:26But if there's one drawback, it could be that there isn't a private swimming pool.
19:32Is there no pool?
19:34Exactly.
19:34So, you've got to think about that.
19:38Fingers crossed it's not a deal-breaker.
19:43You're back?
19:44Yes.
19:45Eventually.
19:46Eventually.
19:47It took a while.
19:47Sorry.
19:48Sorry.
19:48No.
19:49A lot to look at.
19:49A lot to take in.
19:50And what did you think of the house?
19:52It's a one-off, isn't it?
19:55It's a little bit special in there.
19:57The features and some of those touches.
19:59Well, there's one thing that you may have noticed is missing from the property a private
20:05swimming pool.
20:06The main thing is it's all doable within your budget.
20:09Yes.
20:09That leads me nicely on to the price of the house.
20:13Property number two is currently on the market at €340,000.
20:18OK.
20:21OK.
20:21OK.
20:22OK.
20:23That's good news.
20:24Yes.
20:25But let's head off.
20:26OK.
20:28Despite having no pool, property two has made a splash with Andy and Kathy.
20:33But can the garners make even bigger waves with the final offering?
20:46It's business as usual at the Browns' La Manga office.
20:50But one member of the team isn't so keen on getting any work done.
20:55Good morning.
20:56Good morning.
20:56Hello.
20:57So you didn't get the memo to bring your gym kit?
21:00No.
21:01What gym kit to what?
21:02I'm going to get everybody out of the office to go and try the new Pilates studio today.
21:06I thought that would be your reaction.
21:08We're going into a really busy season.
21:11There's a bit of stress going around.
21:12So I think a little bit of mind, body will be good for them.
21:15Are you up for it?
21:16You're happy to come?
21:17Yeah.
21:18We can de-stress.
21:19Stretch our bodies and then back to work.
21:21There's a new Pilates studio that's opened here on La Manga Club Resort.
21:25So I want them to know what there is for clients.
21:29So there's a research part of it.
21:31Celine, you're good, aren't you?
21:32Yeah, of course.
21:33I have a lot of work to do, but that's fine.
21:35Let's go there.
21:36You've always got lots of work to do.
21:37It will do you good.
21:38Okay.
21:40Pilates itself is quite new to me.
21:43Shall we go?
21:44Have fun.
21:45Well-being is super important.
21:47And I know it's the way that I manage my own stress.
21:49And it seems office rivalries might just have followed them to the Pilates studio.
21:54Okay.
21:55How are you ready?
21:55Today is not competition.
21:57I need to pop it.
21:58Oh, that's coming from you, Celine.
22:01Welcome to Pilates, Icky Guy.
22:03It's nice to see some familiar faces and new faces.
22:07Don't be nervous.
22:10Instructor Leanne and assistant Fiona have a beginners class ready for Natalie and the team.
22:15You'll feed your left hand through as if you're threading a needle.
22:18Roll onto your back.
22:20Lift your feet up.
22:21Exhale, press away.
22:23Push out.
22:23Really activate through the hamstrings.
22:26I'm enjoying it.
22:27I mean, there's a lot to think about.
22:28There's a lot of movements.
22:30Knees bend, ankles flex.
22:31You pull yourself in.
22:32Well done.
22:33You can see Celine's being the expert up there.
22:36Yeah.
22:36It's not as easy as it looks.
22:39But Natalie can't let Pilates expert Celine get the better of her.
22:43Celine, stop showing off.
22:45I don't even know where to start.
22:47Now, abdominals lift up.
22:49There's your plank.
22:51Keep pressing up here for me.
22:52Now, don't up.
22:54Oh, my God.
22:55So, it's a touch.
22:57It's a touch.
22:57It's a touch.
22:57It's a touch.
22:57It's a touch.
22:59She can do it.
23:00We're there.
23:00We're there.
23:01Press out.
23:02Good.
23:02Now, in this position, you lift up with your abdominals.
23:05Press that leg back.
23:06Now, quickly.
23:07Head goes down.
23:08Hips up.
23:09Woo!
23:10Head up.
23:11Hips down.
23:12Woo!
23:12No, no, no, no.
23:13You down.
23:14Woo!
23:14Woo!
23:15Woo!
23:17Well done.
23:18I don't know whose idea this was at all.
23:22I think that was a really successful office day out.
23:25I think everybody had a really good time.
23:27Well done, everybody.
23:29I love you.
23:30It's all team bonding.
23:32To be honest, they were brilliant.
23:33They were so good at it that it was quite embarrassing.
23:36I think everyone did exceptionally well.
23:39Did you enjoy it?
23:40Yeah, a lot.
23:41Yeah?
23:42And then we'll get back to work before Darren gets up there.
23:44Cheers!
23:45Cheers!
23:48Coming up, Darren fights a losing battle.
23:52Was there anything that changed your mind?
23:54No.
23:54No.
23:55Fair enough.
23:56And dreams come true for the Ghana boys.
23:59That social, outside living dream that I've always had.
24:10On the Costa Calida, Darren and Natalie Brown are with mum and son duo Debbie and Jordan,
24:16who have €350,000 to spend on a holiday home by the sea.
24:21Option 1's rooftop terrace left Debbie on a high.
24:25Wasn't I expecting it to be this big?
24:28No.
24:29For property two, Darren and Natalie are bringing them closer to the action for son Jordan
24:34in the vibrant town of San Pedro del Pinotar.
24:38So we're at property number two.
24:40OK.
24:41So what do you think?
24:42Quite tall.
24:43Yeah.
24:44Looks nice from the outside.
24:46Yeah.
24:46Very clean lines.
24:47Yeah.
24:48I mean, you might see the back of this building here, not as pretty as the building in front.
24:53Yeah.
24:53This is the back of a sports centre.
24:55OK.
24:55So it's a sports centre, there's a school behind it, the other side.
24:58You're ready to lead us in, aren't you?
25:00Yeah, let's go inside.
25:00Come on.
25:04Property two is a brand new three-bedroom semi, just a stone strove from the town centre
25:09and a beach.
25:11Its unfurnished interior has a large living room and kitchen space, with a double bedroom
25:17and a bathroom on the ground floor.
25:20Upstairs has two further bedrooms, as well as a family bathroom.
25:24The outside features a large rooftop solarium space and a pool in an enclosed private oasis.
25:31It's on the market for 269,000 euros, 80 grand under budget, giving finance worker Debbie
25:39a large chunk of change to create her dream interior.
25:45So, you need to use your imagination in this one.
25:49Imagine your furniture in here.
25:51Would it work?
25:53Yeah.
25:53I need to see more of it.
25:55I like the staircase that comes down there.
25:57That's very attractive.
25:59Kitchen's good.
26:00Yeah.
26:01Okay, so, shall we carry on looking?
26:02Yeah.
26:03Let's go.
26:09Smaller than property one.
26:10Yeah.
26:12My eyes are drawn to the view.
26:14Mm.
26:15Yeah.
26:15Is the view really important to you, Debbie?
26:17It is.
26:18Yeah.
26:18Yeah.
26:18I probably couldn't get over that view.
26:20Right, okay.
26:21Yeah, fair enough.
26:22But I'd like to see the rest of the house, to see the style and while we're here.
26:26Jordan, lead the way, go upstairs, and that's got to look at the roof terrace, yeah?
26:30With Debbie's dim view of the sports centre, perhaps you have a better perspective on the
26:35rooftop.
26:36So, we know we've got a sports centre there.
26:38This isn't a view that you love.
26:41But this is the roof terrace space.
26:43Is it pulling anything back or putting you off more?
26:46No, it's not putting me off.
26:47It's just, I know now this is not the property for us, is it?
26:50Yeah.
26:50Okay, so we know this probably isn't for you, but I think it's worth you having a little
26:54look around, just in case you see a few little features that you say, do you know what, I
26:57like that.
26:58Yeah.
26:58We'd have that in Property Dream.
26:59Yeah, yeah.
27:00Okay.
27:04Decent sized bedroom and wide drawer of space.
27:06Yeah.
27:07Yeah.
27:08The view, the view from the back bedroom's better than the front bedroom, yeah.
27:13Yeah, so property number two, we went all out location and we got the property wrong.
27:17Well, the property's all right, but the view's wrong.
27:19I get that.
27:19Yeah.
27:20Property three is really important now.
27:23We've got to get the right mix of good view, good outdoor space and the right price in
27:28the right location.
27:29Easy, really, when you take quickly.
27:35Welcome back.
27:35Hello.
27:36Hi.
27:37Was there anything that changed your mind?
27:39No.
27:40No.
27:40Okay.
27:41Fair enough.
27:42We can't move back.
27:43No.
27:43So, I suggest what we do is find something different for property three, have a look over
27:47that wish list again.
27:49Yeah.
27:49Yeah.
27:49So, we're going to try and do that.
27:50Yeah.
27:51Right, come on, let's get out with you.
27:52Okay.
27:53Debbie's downer for property two gives Darren and Natalie a lot to do to find her dream home
27:58by the sea with the final offering.
28:08It's an important day for Sean Garner, with guests soon to arrive to christen his relatively
28:14new home in Vallée d'Este.
28:16So, I took the big leap last year and I purchased my very first property and I've been putting
28:23off a home warming party for so long now.
28:26My only worry is we've probably got about an hour.
28:29I've got...
28:30I know.
28:32Sean has roped in pal Emily to help set up and today is also about thanking those who
28:38have supported him following a difficult couple of years.
28:41I've just invited the people that have helped me through this whole journey and I just want
28:46it to be just a really special day.
28:49And right on cue, the party cavalry arrive.
28:52Hello.
28:54How are you?
28:55Hi.
28:56You bought me plans.
28:57I hope they're fake because I walked over.
28:59Nephew Lucas, niece Alicia, sister Emma, brother-in-law Matt and mum and dad are all there to help
29:05Sean celebrate his new life chapter.
29:08You know, it's been a really difficult time for Sean because where Sean was to where he
29:12is today, I am so proud of him because he went through an awful lot.
29:17I don't mean just in moving and relationships.
29:19I mean, I think psychologically, he needed to find himself.
29:24Oh, thank you so much.
29:26Sean now, he's in a good place and I think he wants to bring everybody around and celebrate
29:32that place with him.
29:33Yeah, I think that's perfect.
29:35Okay.
29:35Yeah.
29:35And to mark his special gathering, Sean's got a plan to make it one to remember.
29:40So what I thought is I'd set up some art supplies and a nice big canvas out on the terrace
29:44and
29:44everyone that comes in, I'm going to ask them one by one to leave their stamp on the canvas.
29:49And while Sean gets them started...
29:51There you go.
29:52...Steve gets creative.
29:54Do you remember when Sean had his first room on the ceiling?
29:58I've got brown paint and he put handprints all over the ceiling.
30:01He did, yeah.
30:02I think it's just a really nice memory and everyone that's helped me through this,
30:06everyone that's helped me get to this very day, their stamp will always be in this property.
30:11There's no stopping, Steve.
30:13You ready?
30:13Yeah.
30:14And then it's Sharon's turn.
30:15Oh!
30:17Thankfully, many hands make light work.
30:19So somebody can get his legs, yeah?
30:21Yeah.
30:22Ready?
30:23Right?
30:24Yeah!
30:25Yes!
30:26What's gone into that picture today is true love.
30:29Those type of memories you have to hold on to, and I think to look at that every day,
30:34a fantastic piece of artwork.
30:36Do you know what?
30:36I think you got it perfect.
30:39Have you realised why the handprints?
30:42No.
30:43Can you not remember your bedroom in our house?
30:46Oh, and I did the handprints all over the room.
30:49Chocolate brown.
30:51There you go.
30:51I have the perfect spot.
30:52So if you would like to come and see where it's going to happen.
30:54Oh!
30:56There we go.
30:59Thank you so much.
31:05The fact that everyone has made the effort to come and just leave their little mark means
31:10so, so much, and I literally could not be happier.
31:14I just want to thank you all for coming along to my little haste warming.
31:18I just want to do a lot of cheers and thank you so, so, so, so much.
31:22Cheers!
31:23And your new home.
31:24Cheers!
31:29With Sean's place now looking more homely, it's back to the property search for Andy and
31:34Cathy, who want a rural forever home, with their budget of 400,000 euros.
31:40Probably one had the contemporary look Cathy adores, but she wasn't a fan of going off-road.
31:46My only concern is how I would feel about driving.
31:50Option two's older style was more to Andy's taste, but both fell in love from the off.
31:56Wow.
31:57Yes.
31:57OK.
31:58It's a wow.
32:00This is, this, this, this, this is, this is, yeah.
32:03The final offering, in a quaint hamlet around ten minutes from the town of Owlbox, offers
32:09the couple a perfect blend of their style preferences.
32:13So, come on in to property number three, and I want to get your first initial reaction.
32:21Different to the last one.
32:23Yeah.
32:23Very.
32:24Yes.
32:24It just looks very neat and tidy, doesn't it?
32:27It's lovely.
32:28Yeah.
32:29Follow me then.
32:30OK.
32:32The third option is a three-bed, traditional-looking Spanish villa with modern touches.
32:38Inside is a sleek and stylish heart of the home with space for dining.
32:44Off the kitchen is a cosy lounge featuring a log burner, as well as a bright sunroom for
32:50the ultimate in indoor-outdoor living.
32:53The villa also has three bedrooms, and the main comes with its own en-suite.
32:58The remaining bedrooms share a contemporary family bathroom.
33:03Outside offers Andy his dream outdoor space, with a private pool, a pool bar, and several
33:09sunny spaces to dine al fresco.
33:12Selling for a snip under 330,000 euros, it's nearly 70 grand under their budget.
33:19So, come on in to Cathy, what is it?
33:24Oh, it's modern, isn't it?
33:27Oh, wow.
33:28Modern and clean lines.
33:30Oh, wow.
33:31I wasn't expecting that.
33:33This is nice.
33:35Yes.
33:35He is hoping they love the modern bedroom, too.
33:38Oh, wow.
33:40And water.
33:41Oh, wow.
33:42Again, it's all very newly done, isn't it?
33:45Yes, yeah.
33:46So, we know how important that indoor-outdoor living for you is.
33:51So, head back through the kitchen, and we'll have a little look.
33:53Oh, I'm being intrigued now.
33:55Yeah, absolutely.
33:57Oh, wow.
33:58Okay.
34:01Oh, this...
34:01Oh, yes.
34:03Oh, that's just what you wanted.
34:05Yeah, I was going to say, that social, outside living dream that, you know, I've always had.
34:15This is the finish, isn't it?
34:16This is how we're trying to envisage the landscape in a garden, the pool.
34:21We've showed them a house, exactly what they asked us for.
34:25Well, it had to be done.
34:27This is a nice space.
34:29This is a nice big...
34:30Yes, a nice big lounge.
34:31Nice log burner in the corner there.
34:33So, I think we're down to property two and property three.
34:36They're definitely the contenders, but I couldn't call it which way they're going to go.
34:41And, yeah, I couldn't call it.
34:46Finally.
34:47It took a while, this one, because it was so perfect in the finish and everything.
34:54Property three is currently on the market at just under 330,000 euros, so still...
35:02That's cheaper than the second one, I think, wasn't it?
35:06Yes, by 10,000.
35:07I think you've got a lot to think about, so shall we head off and then we'll meet back up
35:12at the office?
35:13OK, perfect.
35:14All right. Thank you.
35:14Perfect. Let's head off.
35:16With two properties now in the running for Andy and Cathy, they need to decide which one, if any, will
35:22become their dream forever home.
35:28Coming up, it's decision time for the Garner's clients.
35:32We've decided, haven't we?
35:34I think so.
35:35Let's not change your mind again.
35:38And Darren Brown is on the money in Mercia.
35:41250,000 euros.
35:54In Mercia, the Browns are helping Debbie and her son, Jordan, find a holiday home by the sea with 350
36:01,000 euros to spend.
36:04They couldn't find fault with the first property.
36:07Did you stay positive?
36:09Yeah, I don't think we've found a negative.
36:12But the proximity of a sports centre to option two put Debbie in the dumps.
36:18Is it you really important to Debbie?
36:20It is. Yeah.
36:21I probably couldn't get over that.
36:23Right, OK.
36:25The final offering is in a beachside location and near the lively town of San Javier, which should please both
36:32of them.
36:32I've got to say, very cute.
36:36Yeah?
36:36Very cute from the outside.
36:38Well, less about me, the one about the house.
36:40No, the house is very cute, yes.
36:42We're, what, four or five minutes from the beach here.
36:45OK.
36:45Lots and lots of restaurants and bars.
36:47So, I think the area you're going to really like.
36:49Yeah, good.
36:50Yeah, let's go.
36:52Property three is a detached bungalow at a bargain price point for Debbie to put her own stamp on.
36:59A blank canvas inside, the property has a living room diner with a fully fitted separate kitchen just off it.
37:06Three double bedrooms provide all the sleeping accommodation for their family of four, all sharing a modern bathroom.
37:15Outside, a small courtyard leads to a garage space with the potential to convert.
37:22There isn't the pool that Debbie wants, but selling for 250,000 euros, it'd leave her with a cool 100
37:29grand to turn it into the holiday home of her dreams.
37:35So, we're in.
37:36We're in.
37:37We've come through a corridor.
37:39There is so much you could do with this place.
37:41It's nice size.
37:42Yeah.
37:43Yeah.
37:43Nice size, like the floor.
37:45Just keen to see the rest of the house to see how it can figure.
37:49So, yeah.
37:49OK.
37:50In front of me.
37:52Come through.
37:54The living room that we've just come from is just behind that wall.
37:56Yeah.
37:56So, if you wanted to, you could take it out and make it open plan.
37:59Of course, you'd lose that cupboard space, but you could put an island there.
38:02Yeah, and that's probably something we would probably do just to make the kitchen look bigger.
38:06That's doable.
38:08And with a pool one of Debbie's priorities, Darren's taking his wrecking ball through to the garage.
38:14What can be done is this can come out and then this can be your pool and garden area.
38:20OK.
38:21And you can turn this into a garden.
38:22Yeah, I can see the vision here.
38:24Lots of potential.
38:25OK.
38:27So, this is...
38:29Bedroom.
38:30Bedroom.
38:31Do you know what I would do?
38:33French windows.
38:34Yeah.
38:34There's a bit of a different energy about this one and they've definitely got vision.
38:40And, you know, I think this one has got real potential for being the one for them.
38:43Oh, I can see.
38:45A dream.
38:47Absolutely perfect.
38:48I think this is really good value for money.
38:49Well, we'll see what they think when they come back.
38:52Yeah.
38:54Welcome back.
38:55So, in this lovely area, cafe, restaurant, tell us how you found the rest of it.
39:01Really, really interesting.
39:02There's some ideas already floating around.
39:05We really, really like this area.
39:06It's all going to be dependent upon the price of the property.
39:11250,000 euros.
39:13Really?
39:13Yeah.
39:17Right.
39:18That is absolute food for thought.
39:20OK.
39:20I think you've got a lot to think about.
39:21Go and have a wander and we'll see you back in the office a bit later.
39:24OK.
39:25Enjoy.
39:25Enjoy.
39:27At the final hurdle, Darren and Natalie have pulled another serious contender out of the
39:32hat, giving Debbie and her family much to consider.
39:42In Almeria, Steve and Sean Garda are searching for a forever home in the countryside for Andy
39:48and Cathy from Solihull with a budget of 400,000 euros.
39:53The first offering had access issues for Cathy.
39:56I'm a bit concerned about some of those roads.
40:00But Andalusian-style property, too, sent them to cloud nine.
40:04Oh.
40:05Oh, wow, what the size of a balcony.
40:10And option three also equally impressed.
40:13That's that dream that, you know, I've always had.
40:18After taking some time out to think.
40:21Hello.
40:22Hi.
40:23How you doing?
40:23Hello again.
40:24They're back with a decision.
40:28Well, what a journey, quite literally, that we've been on in the last two days.
40:34Yes, definitely.
40:35Wow.
40:36What's your thoughts?
40:37What are your feelings?
40:38Because, obviously, property two and property three were both in the running, should we say.
40:42But what's running through your minds?
40:44We've decided, haven't we?
40:46I think so.
40:48I like that.
40:48Don't change your mind again.
40:50Yeah, let's not change your mind again.
40:52Property number two.
40:54Wow.
40:55Right.
40:55That is one property that one in a million kind of find.
41:00It's like, yeah, that's pretty unique.
41:03What offer are you thinking for us to put forward?
41:07We'd like to go in at 320.
41:09OK.
41:10See what response we get.
41:11Let's see what the owner says.
41:15With an asking price of €340,000, their lowball offer is 20 grand under.
41:22Hello, Christine.
41:24How are you?
41:26€320,000.
41:29Yeah.
41:31Thanks, Christine.
41:32Bye.
41:32Bye-bye.
41:34Bye-bye.
41:34Right.
41:35OK.
41:35So, as expected, the representative is speaking to the owner.
41:40But they just need a little bit of time to discuss with their family and make a decision,
41:45obviously, because we've gone in under asking price.
41:47So, as soon as we get an answer, we'll be in touch to let you know what deal we have.
41:54Thank you very much.
41:55All right?
41:56Thank you very much.
41:56It's been an absolute pleasure.
41:58Yes, we will.
41:59All right, guys.
42:00OK.
42:01See you soon.
42:02Bye for now.
42:06Sandy, for Andy and Cathy, their offer was rejected.
42:11So they have instead decided to continue their search for their dream forever home in the sun.
42:27In Mercia, the Browns have been helping Debbie and her son Jordan find a family holiday home by the sea
42:34with a budget of €350,000.
42:40Property One was an instant contender, despite being away from the action for Jordan.
42:45Yeah, really impressed, two amazing outdoor spaces.
42:50The outlook of the property search looked less rosy with option two.
42:54I probably couldn't get over that.
42:57Right, OK.
42:57Yeah.
42:59But the third property's potential put the proverbial cat amongst the pigeons.
43:04Really, really interesting.
43:05There's some ideas already floating around.
43:09Now with a dilemma between two properties...
43:12Hello. Hello.
43:13Come on in.
43:14Debbie and Jordan are back with their decision.
43:18So, Property One, you liked that one?
43:20We did really like it.
43:21But the area probably isn't the right area for us.
43:26Yeah.
43:26Probably a little too quiet for...
43:27Yeah.
43:28..for Jordan and his friends and family.
43:30So, yeah.
43:31Property Number Two we ruled out really quite quickly.
43:33Yeah.
43:34I think from the doorstep.
43:35It was the view.
43:36I think Property Three we went more for the area.
43:40So, tell us what you think now.
43:41We really like Property Three and we would like to make an offer on that property.
43:45Oh, wow. Good to you.
43:46The property is £250,000.
43:48Yes.
43:49So, what's the offer you'd like to make?
43:51We'd like to put an offering of £235,000.
43:53OK.
43:54Let me call and see.
43:56OK.
43:57All right?
43:59OK.
44:00At £15,000 below the asking price, the offer is a bit of a gamble.
44:05Yeah.
44:05Hiya.
44:06It's Darren at Macassimo.
44:07Yeah.
44:07And they'd like to make an offer of £235,000.
44:12All right.
44:12OK.
44:13All right.
44:14Bye.
44:15OK.
44:16So, I'd have counted at £240,000.
44:19I think that's a no-brainer.
44:21Yeah?
44:22Yeah.
44:22OK.
44:23Well, let's call him back.
44:25Hello.
44:25That was quick.
44:27That offer is accepted, €240,000.
44:31All right.
44:32Hey!
44:33Well done.
44:35Congratulations, guys.
44:36Come on.
44:37Give us a hug.
44:38Well done.
44:39I've got it out of the bag.
44:40Yeah?
44:41Yeah, well done to you.
44:42Go celebrate.
44:43Thank you, Bob.
44:44Thank you for trusting us.
44:46OK.
44:47I'm feeling delighted.
44:48We've got exactly the result for them and for us that we wanted.
44:52Yeah.
44:52Mum is continuing her Spanish dream and I'm buzzing to be a part of that as well.
44:57Thank you so much.
44:57Well done.
44:57Sure thing for us and we love you.
45:01Well done.
45:26David Bowman.
