We have held exclusive promotion contracts over the years such as becoming the development promoter in 2004 of the Miramar de Marina Golf development in Mojacar. This was a fantastic life experience working in a sales industry from the sales and construction points of view. Our office was based in the Marina Golf Club House. In 2007 to 2008, V.I.P Almeria represented Mojacar in the Costa Almeria with the brand Hestiun, "Official Leisure Property Development Partner of Manchester United" under the name of "Royal Resorts". This company sponsorship raised our small company and the area profile throughout Europe. We are very grateful to Don José Ramón Carabante for all his guidance and endorsements. Don Carabante went on to Create Spain's First Formula One Team named Hispania Racing F1 Team (HRT). This was a point for VIP Almeria to grow in a hard market. In the summer of 2008, Stephen decided that through his networks and association with the banking sector locally and internationally, VIP Almeria could also provide clients excellent financial assistance and property portfolios that were not generally available to the public. As a result of the recessionary environment, we opened a independent office on Mojacar Beach (Beside the Red Cross and our current place of work) in Summer 2010. This allowed our portfolio to expand to resale listings, VIP Almeria were the first company in this area to gather and understand Distress Sales and offering Bank Repossessions. This side of the company developed so well that we decided to continue with this direction and a year later closed our Office in Marina Golf Club House and work exclusively from the VIP Beach office next to the Red Cross. V.I.P Almeria is a very proactive company, since 2012, Stephen Howlett became the "Almeria Area Expert" for the UK TV show "A Place in the Sun" conducting interviews about Mojacar and the surrounding Coastline. Stephen has being involved in a number of other reputable TV productions showing property options to clients as well as being a panel member at property exhibitions with APITS. The promotion of Almeria is very important as our adopted home. Many different aspects of the industry via our qualifications are available from our beach office such as Sales, Valuations, Survey, Certified Appraisals, Title Insurance, Planning and Property Registry solutions including Construction Technology.
