Ian J. Comaskeys company has sold 200 million euro of property to date. Yes, the numbers sound good, but it is impossible to sell that much property and not see patterns emerge in buyers. Ian Comaskey uses his knowledge to explain how many buyers end up with a property they did not intend to buy, and why they usually they pay too much. He believes that a penny saved is a penny earned, or "found money." Unfortunately a trait attached to the Spanish real estate sector is that it is open to abuse by those who are unethical, and the tips and tricks in this book tell you how to avoid the more obvious traps, together with those that are less so. Not only traps set by third parties, but how our own brains can trick us. We spend too much time on working on tasks that only give us 20% of positive results. His chapter on negotiation makes it worth buying this book for this section alone. It is an art form as we all know. He provides proven tips and strategies for buyers to use in conjunction with their purchase, plus valuable legal and tax information on all you need to know as a property owner, but furthermore, once a property is bought, how to make money from it. This book is an easy to read, straightforward, far from boring account of how to buy property in Spain using every tip that an experienced agent and property investor is aware of, and then some more."
