A very low building density and hilltop locations surrounded by the natural Mediterranean vegetation and the nearby glamorous cities of Marbella and Elviria make this location extra unique.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_299" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 440px"><a href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-299" title="Urb_La Mairena_View total" src="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Urb_La-Mairena_View-total-430x287.jpg" alt="Urb. La Mairena" width="430" height="287" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Urb. La Mairena</p></div>
<p>La Mairena is a very attractive residential area in the hills above <a class="wp-caption" title="Properties in Marbella East" href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/marbellaeast/" target="_blank">Elviria</a>, about 10 km East of <a class="wp-caption" title="Properties in Marbella" href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/marbella/" target="_blank">Marbella</a>. It was originally developed in the late Eighties by the highly influential Massoud family who are still dedicated to keeping this beautiful residential and exclusive development immaculately maintained to the highest standards. Along the mountainside East of Marbella up to Ojén there are outstanding villas embedded in the natural environment of the Biosphere Reservation protected by the UNESCO. A very low building density and hilltop locations surrounded by the natural Mediterranean vegetation and the nearby glamorous cities of Marbella and Elviria make this location extra unique.</p>
<p> </p>
<div id="attachment_300" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 440px"><a href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-300" title="Golf course-El Soto de Marbella" src="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Golf-course-El-Soto-de-Marbella-430x287.jpg" alt="El Soto" width="430" height="287" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">El Soto</p></div>
<p>Furthermore there are several well-known established urbanizations such as Monte Elviria, El Vicario, El Bosque de La Mairena, El Soto de Marbella and Los Balcones de Mairena comprising high quality townhouses and apartments. What all these properties have in common is the magnificent and panoramic view of the Mediterranean and the unique tranquility within a beautiful natural environment.</p>
<p>  </p>
<div id="attachment_301" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 440px"><a href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-301" title="Los Balcones de La Mairena_copia" src="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Los-Balcones-de-La-Mairena_copia1-430x286.jpg" alt="Los Balcones de La Mairena" width="430" height="286" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Los Balcones de La Mairena</p></div>
<p>Still all local amenities are at hand and there are lots of entertainment and sports facilities – many Tennis courts and some of the most beautiful Golf courses of the Costa del Sol are around. Apart from that La Mairena comprises two highly renowned international schools: The <a class="wp-caption" title="Colegio Juan Hoffmann" href="http://dsmalaga.com/Start.169.0.html" target="_blank">Colegio Alemán Juan Hoffmann </a>and the Colegio Ecos – not to mention the International <a class="wp-caption" title="Academy Klaus Hofsäss" href="http://www.hofsaesstennis.com/" target="_blank">Tennis Academy of Klaus Hofsäss </a>where many of the best players such as Boris Becker, Steffi Graf, Stefan Edberg and Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario used to prepare for the coming season.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The location of La Mairena is a fantastic: The beautiful sandy beaches of the Costa del Sol seem to be just a stone´s throw away, and it is just half an hour drive to the Málaga International Airport.</p>
<p>You can find some of the best properties available for sale on our <a class="wp-caption" title="Properties for sale and rent" href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/" target="_blank">homepage</a> . But we have already pre-selected some of the most attractive apartments and villas there as follows:</p>

		<description><![CDATA[If two identical properties are offered to a client, this one will always choose the one which is presented in a better way, because a buyer wants to purchase the best property he can get.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="wp-caption" title="Wikipedia-Home Staging" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_staging" target="_blank">Home staging </a>is the act of preparing a <a class="wp-caption" title="Private Residence for Sale" href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/search.php?type=&amp;area=&amp;from=500000&amp;to=&amp;beds=&amp;ref=&amp;x=46&amp;y=8" target="_blank">private residence for sale </a>in the real estate marketplace. The goal of staging is to make a home appealing to the highest number of potential buyers. Staging techniques focus on improving a property&#8217;s appeal by transforming it into a welcoming, attractive product that anyone might want. Many people believe that staging raises the value of a property by way of reducing the home&#8217;s flaws, depersonalizing, cleaning, improving its general condition and landscaping. For vacant homes, furniture can be rented to create a living space where the buyer can imagine themselves living. These techniques are well known in USA and Canada and starting to be used in Spain now.</p>
<p> If two identical properties are offered to a client, this one will always choose the one which is presented in a better way, because a buyer wants to purchase the <a class="wp-caption" title="Best property Elviria" href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/ref-1129526.html" target="_blank">best property </a>he can get. Some buyers can’t imagine the real potential of a property and a buyer is not only buying a house, he is buying a life style, a dream. All buyers are very critical observer and normally decide themselves unconsciously in the first 30 seconds after entering the house whether to buy it or not.<br />
The owners should try to distance themselves from the property and value it objectively. Neutralize and depersonalize the rooms. Analyze with your sales agent, if the property would look larger with moving the furniture and decoration or look nicer with fresh flowers and a set table.</p>
<p>All this can help to sell your property sooner and achieve a better price.</p>

As we could read in the recently published market study of the Spanish BBVA Bank, to sell the actual stock of properties in Spain the prices should decrease about 30% in total counted from the period of peak prices to the end of next year, being estimated the price decrease for 2010 about 8%. ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems that the real estate market on the <a class="wp-caption" title="Costa del Sol Properties" href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/costadelsol/" target="_blank">Costa del Sol </a>is reacting to the increasing demand of price reduced properties. As we could read in the recently published market study of the Spanish BBVA Bank, to sell the actual stock of properties in Spain the prices should decrease about 30% in total counted from the period of peak prices to the end of next year, being estimated the price decrease for 2010 about 8%. This means that the asking prices of a lot of properties in Spain are around 30 % over their real value due to the constant price increasing years ago. But we would like to point out that the estimations made are generally spoken and can vary for <a class="wp-caption" title="Luxury Properties Costa del Sol" href="http://www.costadelsolproperties-ev.com/search.php?type=&amp;area=&amp;from=2000000&amp;to=&amp;beds=&amp;ref=&amp;x=37&amp;y=13" target="_blank">luxury properties </a>and second homes.</p>
<p>The final asking price of a property depends on a lot of factors and in the end the owner has the final say, but if a property is more then one year on the market or respectively two years in this crisis times, the price is clearly too high.</p>
