At last I can introduce ourselves without feeling I've jumped the gun!. I now have a copy of our deeds on our superb villa at Serenkent and we're coming out March 28th. I'm Pete and my wife is Kathy, we're both semi-retired, and come from Malmesbury, Wiltshire. Kathy recently retired as a teacher (too many Ofsteds) and myself as a 50+ computer salesman (not in demand at the moment!). Anyway we intend to spend Spring and Autumn in our new home and let it out during July and August. I visited in November and stayed with a friend who lives permanently in Fethiye, loved it as soon as I arrived. I had 6 meetings with estate agents arranged over 3 days, they were all excellent and keen to understand what my requirements were. Unfortnately I'd seen a picture of Serenkent and I was already sold on the place (no logic). Serdar at SO Estates knew of a villa where the owner was thinking of selling and I went with that. Apart from the wait (over 3 months) the process has been very easy and we're both looking forwards to coming over to finish off furnishing etc. I'm keen on watersports (windsurfing)and Kathy on yoga and tennis so we'll be looking to see who else is up for all this energy soon. Definitely over for the May party - see you all there!!! Cheers Pete and Kathy
