WW2 Baby BOOM Retirees
Property Gloom or Property BOOM
OK lets begin, its the end of WW2 . Hero's start returning home to their families. Some return home and find new loved ones to start a family........
It turns out, that what happened next is the same thing that would happen if you left a couple of randy rats together.
Over the next 10 years baby's were born at some rate. Millions and Millions of bottoms to clean and not a disposable nappy in sight.
This we now know was the Post-World War II Baby BOOM, and it happened every where.
- Australia 1946-1961
- Canada 1947-1966
- America 1946-1964
- France 1946–1974
- United Kingdom 1946–1974
- Finland 1945–1950
- Germany 1955-1967
- Sweden 1946–1952
- Denmark 1946–1950
- Netherlands 1946–1972
- Ireland 1946–1982
- Hungary 1946-1957
- Iceland 1946–1969
- New Zealand 1946–1965
- Australia 1946–1965
Now move on 65 years
Its the year 2011, Over the next 10 years, there will be millions or retirees. Most, if their pensions have not suffered too badly, will be looking to retire to a new retirement lifestyle.
This would normaly mean a new home too.
Are we about to see a rise in property sales over the coming years ? or maybe a new property BOOM ?
Only time will tell, but for now if you know of a retiree that is looking for a property in a sunny location, tell them that Spain is a very nice place to live, and that they can buy their dream retirement property from Swingle Casas.
Cheers all!

Expats happily retired abroad
Here is some Expat news that has appeared in the press over the past couple of days. If you are looking to retire in spain, Swingles Casas can help
“Britons are the least likely to retire at home, according to a new survey revealing that more than half of us plan to desert the UK in favour of a sunnier climate. Better weather and a fiesta lifestyle have obvious appeal
Spain is a firm favourite for British retirees with almost one in four picking it as their preferred retirement destination. In second place came the US, with Australasia and France filling the next two places.
” from The independent Sunday, 15 August 2010
“
The third annual NatWest International Personal Banking (NatWest IPB) Quality of Life Report reveals that almost three-quarters of retired expats, or 71 per cent, say they have no regrets about the decision.The survey was carried out by the Centre for Future Studies for NatWest Bank among 1,300 retirees. It also found that nine out of ten of expat retirees live among the indigenous population of their adopted country rather than among fellow Britons in communities of exiles.
The survey suggested there are two types of British expats: those who have spent their working lives in the UK and have chosen to retire abroad – which the report’s authors dub ‘silver expats’ – and those who left the UK to work abroad and subsequently retired in the country in which they had been living, which here are referred to as ‘lifer expats’.
NatWest International Personal Banking’s Dave Isley told the Daily Mail: “Retiring abroad is still very much a popular choice and expats are happy with their chosen life paths.”
He continued: “It’s encouraging to see that the majority of expats believe they made the right decision in retiring abroad and are living their chosen dream. It is enlightening that 92 per cent of expats chose not to retire to a designated expat community. This seems to emphasise the notion that expats have retained a sense of adventure.”
He added: “They really do want to start afresh and experience life as a local rather than settle with other expats. By immersing themselves in a full, enriched life as a local, retired expats can certainly learn and gain more from their time abroad.”
The survey also revealed that nearly six out of ten retirees abroad feel their experience has been better than they expected.” from holidaylettings.co.uk 8 September 2010

property in spain
As a result of the recent property slump in spain and factors including the fall in the €uro to the pound we have many clients that are selling up and moving back to the U.K.
A big cause of the property slump in spain is that many people have been forced to sell their homes at a loss or just to cover their morgage values due to lack of income, job loss or their pensions are not covering morgage payments because the euro has been 1-1 on the exchange rate.
However their loss is your gain, as they say. As the prices they are asking for their properties are often far less than the market value or less than they bought the property for in the housing boom .With house prices in Spain now selling for the same prices that they were in 2000
Property analysts in spain are now predicting that by the end of 2010 house prices in spain will be on the increase. Plus the Euro has weakened in recent months giving a better exchange rate for foreign investors.
The best time to buy any property is when the property market has bottomed out and every indication shows that the property market in spain will pick up towards the end of 2010
Its time to buy back into Spain and grab yourself a bargain holiday home or that dream retirement home
