The villas for 45k euros plus are the small Victoria and Fiesta, maybe one or two Clasicos but definetly not Fortunas/Rosa's , if they are, I would buy another like a shot....lovely homes, I know, I got a semi- detached Rebecca with gardens, this is the same as a Fortuna,, except a Fortuna is detached.
Exactly where did you see these villas on sale for this price please?

The fact that you can buy any two bedroom place for £40k+ should tell you all you need to know about the place, most places you couldn't buy a dog kennel for that sort of money.

Why oh why are you members from Camposol allowing yourselves to be drawn into this by people like desolation who are obviously making posts to stir things up.

I have my beady eye on desolation
I suspect if he continues to post as such, there will be suicides on BE

I suspect the price per square metre is on par with similar areas in Spain. The properties at these prices are quite small.

I really do not understand the way this thread has developed. On the one hand you have the Camposol owners defending their Urb as though their lives depended on it.
On the other you have posters who seem intent on rubbishing the place.

WHY? It all seems so unnecessary.

I can understand threads on town/campo/urb life but this thread has degenerated into just bitching. That's not the idea of a forum.

Hi Johnnyone - you're right, so I'm withdrawing from this forum!!

It is useless, trying to explain to people who are so wrapped up in their own superiority that they could just possibly be too blinkered to see another point of view.

However, as you might have guessed, regardless of any TV programmes, I'm perfectly contented living on Camposol, and would not dream of slating anyone choice of home, unless I had actually been there.

I think thoughyou must admit, that most of the bitching came from the more 'senior members' of this forum, so as I said, I'll withdraw, and let them get on with their little lives

Regards to you all

I think that posters living on Camposol, quite rightly, do not want to see the value of their properties reduced by negative speculation on a public forum which might be researched by anyone wishing to buy in the area.

I'm not entirely sure why other posters, some of whom have by their own admission, never set foot in the place, seem intent on rubbishing it

All you have to do is find the right sellers by asking....the asking price is not the selling price.

Hear hear!!

I don't blame the Camposollers one little bit for defending their chosen locality. I am disappointed by the attitude of some others who are unnecessarily seeking to rubbish it sight unseen from afar. What's the point?

I have taken a look on the rightmove website for properties for sale in Camposol and there are loads of them, 166 properties ofr sale in Camposol alone with a 1 bedroom villa for 41,000 euros, a 2 bedroom bungalow for 45,000 euros, a 3 bedroom villa for 60,000 euros. Even at these prices the properties are way overpriced. I wouldn't be surprised if buyers put in offers of 20,000 euros for a 40,000 priced property or put in offers of 30,000 euros for a 60,000 euro priced property.

Camposol's reputation has surely been seriously damaged by all the horror stories of subsidence and poor build quality. Buyers will put in cheeky offers of half the asking price!

Rosemary

Could I ask you what your deep interest in this is? Are you planning to buy, hoping to sell or trying to spread doom and gloom? You have made 5 posts all about bad building, people wanting to get out etc so it definitely feels like you have an ulterior motive in your posts.

Rosemary

That is exactly what I was thinking too ... why come onto a website and make only negative comments?
New posters normally join and immediately ask a sensible question related to living in Spain, or at least introduce themselves and give a brief synopsis of their situation before joining in discussions.

Desolation
You continually are 'knocking' Camposol, have you ever been there?

You and a few others, are sad, sad people, who don't seem to have much of a life, and seem to get great pleasure in annoying others just for the fun of it!!!!

I personally hope you get banned from this site and any others you may frequent.

I and a few of my other Camposol 'buddies' will probably give this site a miss from now on.

Such a shame, because there seems to be some genuinely lovely people.

Desolation GET A LIFE and BE NICE for gods sake. Don't know what your and a few others, problems are.... Life is too short to be an absolute b***** to folk and a place you, and a few other wallys know nothing about!!!!

Bye everyone....sorry it's come to this x

Actually if anything I think Camposol's appeal is now probably greater than before! (it will make desolation gnash his teeth in fury!)

I didn't know about the place before this thread started, and think of myself as a city-dweller. Yet if I was looking for a retirement place, this type of place would fit a lot of requirements. Cheap prices for 2 bedroom properties. You're unlikely to get your place burnt down in riots or see looters rampage down the high street. The climate is obviously good, and there seem to be a community already looking out for each other.

Of course there probably aren't the job opportunities you'd get in a big city. Unless you work via the web, commute, or can work your fingers to the bone in a bar, then it's probably less of an option. But it seems a great place to retire (or have a holiday home) away from the city noise, crime and pollution, without forking out silly money. There are a lot worse options out there. and I don't see anywhere making huge gains in house prices, so I don't see why choosing to pay more for your product (in this case a house) makes any sense?
