• No tax on empty homes

The Canarian government has ruled out the possibility of putting a tax on owners of properties which are left empty. Both the Basque Country and

Catalonia are considering imposing some kind of tax to encourage owners to release their properties for rental, is not deemed necessary in the Canaries, according to a Treasury spokesman.

 ‘The figure quoted in the media of 125,000 empty properties is highly exaggerated and we think the figure is nearer 25,000′ said the spokesman. The government feels that the existing tax incentives to buy second homes for rental income are sufficient and no punitive measures are required.

The 42 Los Corales townhouses, Los Cristianos, benefit from large sun terraces, Jacuzzi as standard and in addition private garages are also included.

Los Cristianos Investment
Los Cristianos is within the municipality of Arona, Tenerife - property sales over the past years have meant that the population has dramatically increased, especially with British Expatriates, and, as a result, the local council is investing millions of euros to ensure that the infrastructure can adequately support the bustling resort.

In just over 12 months time Los Cristianos town centre will have a completely new look which should, explained the mayor, reinforce its continuing position as a beautiful modern tourist resort.

Development work on the promenade of Los Cristianos is due to get under way shortly according to town hall sources. With an allocated budget of 2,689,000 euros it is expected to be completed in 15 months time, including:-

• The sea front promenade between the barranco de Aquilino and the existing port will widened by approximately five metres

• New paving will be laid

• Trees, flowers and plants will be introduced

• New benches and seats will be installed alongside the modern promenade.
“The promenade project has in fact been planned to “match” the other work being carried out in the tourist areas of the seaside town with the aim of creating a uniform image, although this particular project is being completely financed by Arona town council it will contribute to the Tourist Excellence Plan currently being undertaken by the Canarian government and the Plan to improve the commercial activity in the borough which is being financed by the Cabildo, the town council and the Regional government.”
