A Place in the Sun buyers spot problem with home before looking inside

A Place In The Sun's Danni Menzies was disappointed after her buyers shot down her first property instantly.

The property expert flew off to Málaga in Spain to find house hunters Vicky and Lee their dream home to enjoy with their three children and dog.

They had a budget of £150,000 and were on the hunt for a property with a minimum of two bedrooms, a swimming pool, and enough space for the extended family to visit all year around.

The group arrived at their first property - a three-bed villa in Torre del Mar mountains on the market for £149,000. Taking in the incredible scenery, Vicky said: "Straight away it's ticking a box because you can see the spectacular views behind us."

An apprehensive Lee was concerned the property wasn't private enough as it was situated on a main road. Danni tried to ease his worries as she said it was only used to go directly to the village but another looming issue forced the pair to call off the first viewing entirely.

The couple agreed the property's exterior was to die for but the neighbours' proximity was too much for them. Vicky said: "It's really overlooked and we really like our privacy. In our head, our dream place would be a little bit more remote with greenery."

The viewing was called off with Danni saying she'd do a better job with the next property. As Vicky and Lee left the grounds without having a single look inside, direct at the camera, Danni said: "Well I think I need to take this one on the chin. It was such a disappointment they didn't like it."

Coming together at the end of the show to place an offer, Vicky and Lee were successful in bagging their dream home for just under the asking price. Their bid of £130,000 was picked up instantly by the owner and they didn't need to haggle any further.
