Sun, Sea and Selling Houses continues its exploration of British families seeking new starts in Spain this Friday, July 11, at 6 PM on Channel 4. This week’s episode, Season 8 Episode 15, puts the focus on contrasting budgets and lifestyle aspirations, as two different sets of homebuyers test the limits of what a Spanish property can be.
In Almería, Sharon and Steve Garner face a tight brief: Damien and Georgina are on the hunt for a Spanish home with a strict £50,000 ceiling. It’s a challenge that calls for shrewd knowledge of the market and a keen eye for potential. Meanwhile, on the sun-drenched Costa Blanca, Joanne and Andrew Alderton assist Chris and Nicola, who arrive with a far more ample £850,000, aiming for a family villa complete with a sea view. The price points here make clear how wide the range of choices remains in the Spanish property market, from the practical to the opulent.
Away from the house-hunting Joanne Alderton and her mother try their luck with a raffle, while Shaun Garner gathers his family for a beach photo in Mojácar, providing some downtime from the grind of finding dream homes.
