Alex’s and Luca’s thoughts
Alex finds that one neighborhood on the edge of Madrid would be ideal for setting up a business as it has good connections to the city center and airport. It also already has the infrastructure, textile manufacture, good local facilities, and possibilities to construct a brand image. However, Luca still doubts that their budget probably doesn’t stretch that far. To Lucas’s doubts, Alex supposes that it is better to go to that area before it’s too trendy and expensive.

Well written Anna-Maria.
Some suggestions:
> Instead of to construct a brand image, we say to build a brand image
> However, Luca still doubts that their budget probably doesn’t stretch that far. Because we are using ‘doubt’ it is a sort of prediction, so the future tense sounds more natural here. Also we wouldn’t use the double negative:
However, Luca still doubts that their budget will stretch that far.
> To Lucas’s doubts I suggest: In answer to Lucas’s doubts
> This isn’t wrong: … before it’s too trendy and expensive. If you add ‘gets‘ it sounds even better: … before it gets too trendy and expensive.
