Living at La Torre - Page 3

Thanks Sue, we are over in June to have a look around before moving permanently in Aug/Sept.  As my daughter isn't coming with us we are looking at buying her a property which we can also use if we are back in the U.K.  Looking forward to coming out to see La Torre as we've heard so many good reports.  

Thanks again for your helpful info.

Hi Monica!  We bought in El Mojón not too dar from La Torre.  Haven't fully moved yet,  still a second home till we sell our home here in the US.  Going to our home in El Mojón in Septiembre.  Our son,  a die hard golfer,  coming with us for a short visit,  now asking about golf courses.  Is La Torre golf only for members or do admit visitors? As for Caroline,  we did not plan to buy in El Mojon.  It just happened! We saw this house online with flower curtain,  literally!  Went house hunting all the way to southern Spain,  we thought about the house with flower curtain!  Followed this house to find out it was in small and quiet community called El Mojon,  unheard of. It turned out , we did not buy the flower curtain house.  The owner wouldn't accept our offer . But suddently next door house went up for sale.  The agency called us if we wanted to take a look.  Love at first sight!  We put an offer and was accepted.  Love it and can't wait to move.  I will carry my own joy and peace and excitement with me and make that place another paradise!  The point is : What's yours is yours.  Just keep moving and your heart will lead you to where you're meant to be. 

Good luck in making your decision.  You're very young and have infinite decisions to make. You'll be just fine in any of the infinite paradises on planet earth! Blessings!!!! 

Hi 

I’m looking at buying a 2 bedroom apartment on the la torre golf resort .

 Any advice ?

Was also wondering what sort of monthly outgoing should I expect for utilities etc ?To cover ongoing costs for when I am back in the uk and the property is empty .

many thanks

Have you looked at Mar Menor golf resort. Lovely resort with a mixture of villas and apartments. Hotel and approx six restaurants on site.  Just outside (called El Boulevard) there are more restaurants and some of the best value apartments.  The resort is also only about 7-10 mins to the beaches of Los Alcazares and Los Narejos by car.   Personally I prefer to swim in the Med (beaches 15-2Omins) by car.  One thing to note, there is no public transport on MMGR.  Just a bus to Torre Pacheco which In think doesn’t run in the summer.  TP is not very a attractive town anyway.  

Might be worth a look. 

Thankyou for your reply 

I prefer a beach to the pool ! Love walking along the beach early morning as well . 

I havnt looked at that resort no. My friend has an apartment on la torre and also have been looking at videos on you tube . It looks lovely and also 20 mins by car to the beach . However I will look at mar menor al well now .

Thankyou

MMGR is the closest to the beach.  Neither is walkable.  Also Mil Palmeras and Torre de la Horardada are lovely beaches.  If you had the right property you could walk to the beach.  In hindsight I wish I’d have done this.  Best advice always rent first. 

Thankyou 

The only problem ( I have been told )  is a lot of resorts still aren’t finished . And. Also not gated .However la torre is and also very clean and secure . 

I am not looking at moving full time but ideally would love to spend 12 weeks of the year there . So not sure renting would work .

MMGR is finished and has been established since 2005.  It has security at two entrances.  It is considered to be one if the best in the area, though I know of course others will disagree. It has all year round residents.   I think, however, that property prices on the resort probably reflect this.  It’s definitely worth a look.  Lots of info on YouTube where you can nose around.  

Mind you I’m probably just confusing the issue for you.

Thankyou very much again for your help . I’m guessing you probably live there now due to your knowledge . 

Thankyou  .👍🏻
