Are they in the doldrums like the UK market is?

I have just been cruising french property web sites and notce from the pics many seem to have been on the market since Chrimbo judging by the decorations, and certainly since winter/early spring judging by the external shots.

Spain is in a really poor shape. I dare say much worse than here. I hope they are also blaming new labour.

I'm trying to sell a villa on the Costa Blance at the moment. In fact I'm not anymore because I've given up. It's that bad.

I think it may depend on where you are talking about. Traditional British second home locations are probably struggling, whereas countries such as the Netherlands are feeling less of an effect. That's not to say there is no effect, just that rather than prices dropping, they are perhaps not rising like they have done in previous years
