Blinds, Awnings, Mosquitoscreens etc
I can't comment on the standard or prices of their products as I have not purchased from them but I wanted to put on record how impressed I am with their customer service. I needed a repair to an electric shutter, installed by another company that have gone out of business, and they sent an English speaking technician within 24 hours. He phoned 1 hour before he arrived to check I was in/confirm he was on the way, and then two of them completed the job within an hour. He was friendly, helpful and

Wanted - Long Term Rent in North (Lajares, Cotillo etc)
The time has come, and a decision has been made.

I am looking to rent a property in the north of the island.

I have a preference for Lajares but anything in the north would be accepted (except Corralejo, I need something a bit quieter)

My search online has shown a ton of holiday rentals, but I'm looking for something a bit more long term.

If you have a property or know of someone that does, please send me a message.

Right now its an open search, and when the right one comes along

Bought a property - What to do to comply with the necessary laws, taxes etc
I wasn't sure where to post this question so excuse me if i am in the wrong place.
Having purchased our first property in April and only being able to visit last week i would be grateful for an idiots guide on what i should be doing to comply with the necessary laws, taxes etc. Water and electricity are in hand, it was suggested i take a trip to the Town Hall to discuss sorting any taxes, bins charges etc. Obviously i don't want to miss anything.

Thank you in advance.

Annual Council Tax (waste collection etc)
Hi all.
I’ve noticed that my annual direct debit for Council Tax is ‘sat’ in my CaixaBank account waiting to be ‘claimed’ by Pajara Council.
No problems in past years as it’s just come automatically out of my account in a one-off lump sum (250ish euros a year).
I’ve been on to Caixa and they say to get in touch with the Town Hall.
Has anyone had similar problems this year or advice as to how to sort as I want to get it paid.
Thanks in advance
