Everything about real estate

For many people living in the Empordà has always been a dream. The combination of the colors of the land and forests with the breeze of sea and beach, we can say that it is a privilege that offers us the Empordà villages.

So today we want to tell you a little more about Albons and its surroundings.

It is very likely that more than once you have thought about producing your own electricity, more and more families are deciding to enter the world of self-consumption and clean energy.

A house represents many things, including intimacy, space, freedom and privacy.

The possibility of having an outdoor space where you can enjoy quiet breakfasts with your family, large lunches with friends and barbecues that last until dinnertime is synonymous with quality of life.

In today's post we would like to introduce you to the new development we have recently started, Jardins de Vilablareix, a series of new-build flats located very close to the Can Gruart social and facilities centre in Vilablareix.

Buying a new home is one of the preferred options for new homeowners. But... What exactly should be taken into account before buying a newly built home?

For weeks now, construction companies have been warning that the shortage of materials could bring the construction sector to a halt. Well, this day has come.

Maybe you are wondering, what are Tiny Houses and why are they becoming fashionable? In today's post we will solve all your doubts and we will explain why they are starting to be one more alternative in the search for a new home.

What does "tiny house" mean?

Tiny Houses are mini houses, where nothing is missing in a reduced space of between 10 and 50 m2. It is a concept that is here to stay with innovative designs associated with a new, more minimalist and sustainable lifestyle.

Paint a wall, renovate doors or windows, change the electrical installation, but what is the limit to make changes at home and that they become a reform? When you want to make a reform, depending on the type of work you have to do, you are obliged to ask for a building permit.

Girona is a beautiful city. It offers us marvellous charms such as its imposing cathedral, the Eiffel bridge or "les Peixateries Velles" (the most famous red bridge), the charming "Barri Vell" with its narrow streets where you can get lost or the famous houses on the Onyar river.

Even so, there is a clear tendency to seek residence in villages near the city. The outskirts of Girona provide us with all the basic comforts that a city can offer and also other characteristics that may interest us.

After spending a long time locked up at home we have been able to rest and enjoy our homes. But we have also had time to notice all those small (or big) details that we don't like or that during our busy day to day, we didn't give the importance that it deserves.

We are sure that in more than one house, during this confinement, we have experienced situations such as: one working in the kitchen and the other in the dining room, seeing how the bill for supplies goes up, not having an adequate space for the children to play, and surely the one that has been most noticed... Not having the terrace fixed!

During the last few years, the purchase of second-hand apartments and houses has been the usual practice among people who wanted to buy a home. After the massive construction of houses and the subsequent brick and economic crisis, the real estate market was saturated and newly built flats were left aside.

This cycle is now breaking down to make way for a new trend: new-build flats. The purchase of flats to be renovated or the purchase of "turnkey" flats are left behind and the purchase of off-plan flats is welcomed.

A home can mean many things to a person. It's that feeling of comfort after a stressful day. It's calm early in the morning when everyone is asleep. It's the laughter at dinner and the sound of "chin chin" celebrating all that is to come. It's the security of having a place to come back to.

But it is also true that four walls do not always mean "home". For us it is very valuable to be able to find all those walls that do. Buying a home is a decision that is always accompanied by many doubts. One of the most frequent questions before making the purchase is what is better, to buy a house or a flat?
