Marbella madness over?

The Mayor of Marbella has promised that real estate corruption is a thing of the past...

Speaking at the Leading Property Agents of Spain (LPA) conference on the Costa del Sol recently, Angeles Muñoz commented: “We acknowledge the problems plaguing the region in the past from corruption at government level through to oversupply and the ill conceived planning of certain developments, my administration will work to correct these problems by taking a more consultative approach with residents and industry in the future.

“I am very optimistic about the economic future of the Costa del Sol, it is just a question of getting our assets in order. We will be providing support and welcoming with open arms the suggestions that the industry have for the region. A lot of people are concerned with the public services and we want to ensure that future developments are fluid with the transport infrastructure and that every new project improves the day to day life on the Costa del Sol.

“A lot of work needs to be done for this to happen and we need to be untied on this front. Marbella is a magnificent city that, despite everything, has maintained its brand. The city needs consolidation and I would like to ask you to defend Marbella as the town council works to improve the region. I am convinced that we have been through this difficult period and will recover.”
