Dear Colleague,

In a market that has seen many magazines try and fail, and yet still has many magazines to choose from, it is refreshing to find a property magazine that remains pure in its intention to deliver a specific product. 123 Property News is such a magazine, specifically catering for Englishspeaking residents and visitors who are interested in buying property in Spain and Gibraltar.

Now in its seventh year of publication, 123 Property News has recently changed from bi-monthly to monthly publication, a move that has been on the cards for quite a while. The change is in response to feedback from both readers and advisers, which told us that two months is a very long time in the fast-moving world of property. With the move to more frequent publication, we have also made other changes, such as a new design and a clearer layout, along with a new and dynamic corporate image that aims to reflect our strong values and our increasing participation in the property business in both Spain and Gibraltar.

With 10,000 copies distributed every month, from Malaga down to Cadiz, in Gibraltar, and in both Gibraltar and Malaga airports, and in every worthwhile drop point and social venue frequented by expat residents and visitors along the Costa del Sol and the Costa de la Luz, awareness of our magazine is very high. Additionally, we have a fast developing but already highly interactive website, www.123propertynews.com, which continues to attract an increasing number of visitors, averaging over 30,000 unique visitors per month. It is worth noting that all our advertisers feature on our website, with applicable links to their own websites and email addresses.

You will find in this media pack our current rate card, together with detailed information. We ask that you view 123 Property News as a medium for your advertising and ‘advertorials’, or indeed for any editorial comment that you may wish to submit to the editor. We are always happy to hear news and views from our peers in the property business.

We will be in contact with you in the near future to demonstrate how 123 Property News could be of benefit to you and your business. However, please feel free to call us or email us at any time for consultation.
