Exciting New Initiative From IGRM Delivers ‘Golf On Your Doorstep’

The dream of hundreds of golfers who yearn for a home on one of the Costa del Sol’s fabulous courses is about to be delivered. Known as ‘Golf on Your Doorstep’, this exciting initiative from International Golf & Resort Management enables golfers to buy a share in a luxury home and enjoy playing rights at a prestigious golf resort.

Fractional ownership (shared ownership in perpetuity) is a fast growing sector of the property market. It is considered to be one of the most financially astute ways of purchasing overseas property.

European market leaders, the Fractional Ownership Consultancy and its sales & marketing arm, The Fractional Group, the main agent for the sale of fractional properties with the safety assured legal and structural framework provided by the Fractional Ownership Consultancy (FOC). FOC is the only European fractional specialist with over 9 years experience of fractional marketing, sales and development. Together they have teamed up with International Golf & Resort Management (IGRM) to take fractional ownership to new heights with the delivery of the ultimate golf locations, luxury homes, golf playing rights and impeccable concierge services.

The first project to be released is at Alhaurin Golf – an Andalucían pueblo style resort built around a Seve Ballesteros course in the breathtaking Sierra de Mijas Mountains. Just 30 minutes drive from Marbella and the international airport at Malaga, the cost of ownership of a fractional apartment at Alhaurin Golf starts at just 25,000 euros for a 1/12th share which gives 4 weeks usage a year and includes playing rights at the club and on the nearby courses of Cabopino and Calanova.

Alhaurin Golf boasts fabulous playing and practice amenities. As well as the beautiful 18 hole course, which combines spectacular tee positions with views of the majestic mountains and Mediterranean Sea, there is a 9 hole par 3 course and an academy - renowned as one of the best in Andalucía. Not only for golf enthusiasts, the resort is also ideal as a family holiday retreat with its 4 star hotel, swimming pools, gym, fitness centre and tennis club.

The 2 and 3 bedroom largely frontline apartments are sold ready for occupation. They have fully fitted kitchens and are tastefully decorated and furnished by a leading design company. Led by CEO Michael Longshaw, a former senior executive at Forte Hotels and MD of Brocket Hall, an on site team will provide personal concierge services to take care of owners’ every need, from the booking of restaurants, tee times and excursions to airport pick up, maid service and the delivery of groceries. IGRM will also handle the management and maintenance of the properties and the owners’ calendar and rental programmes – ensuring that the vacation experience is seamless and the pressures of owning a property are removed.

Of the initiative Michael Longshaw, who recently appeared in ‘Raising the Roof’ in the New York Times on line said, “Golf on Your Doorstep should appeal to golfers looking for an affordable second home in the sun that they and their families can enjoy. We have some superb properties to unveil, the next being the jewel in our crown - luxurious front-line apartments with memberships at one of the most renowned championship venues in Europe. And if it’s not enough to have a fairway at the end of your garden, then the investment potential and rental income should appeal to savvy investors. We believe we are truly delivering the dream.”
