THOSE who feel the need to run for the sun in Spain can now get a helping hand from a new Alvechurch company.

Casa Overseas, based in The Square, has been set up to help buyers overcome the daunting prospect of investing in Spanish property.

The business is a member of the Interagency Network MLS (IN) which includes nearly 100 agents on the Costa del Sol working together.

A Casa spokesman said: "As an IN member, Casa Overseas can offer impressive levels of support, including financial and mortgage services, legal advice and help concerning property management, letting and most importantly of all, offering a huge choice of properties to choose from.

"We also offer many exciting investment opportunities in new build and off-plan properties as they continue to be hot news in southern Spain.

"Buying in the early stages of a development's construction can yield high investment returns - typical growth from plans to completion can be from 30-35 per cent."
