This is copied/pasted from Parador Properties’ website. Tongue-in-cheek or have they decided to come clean? Item 4 on the list is surely going to hit a nerve with some of Paradors purchasers!
1 Make sure the agent you’re dealing with is gorgeous.
2 Buy on impulse, preferably after drinking the local brew and flirting with the pool attendant.
3 Hurry! Don’t delay. All my friends have one. Don’t miss the boat!
4 Planning permissions are too complicated – you’ll get a proper bargain without them!
5 Don’t worry about the resale market, you’re in the sun – what could possibly go wrong!
6 Finance? My Dan has got some cash under the mattress. Have a look under yours and see what you find.
7 Contracts in foreign languages are mumble jumble. Just sign on the dotted line. After all, they’re smashing folk.
8 Extras? No! They’ll all be covered in the one price.
9 You’ve spent years earning and saving money. It’s up to you if you want to blow it all!
10 English speaking solicitor? No! mine sounds sooo sexy!
