Re: Would like to buy a property to rent as holiday let when relocate

Re: Would like to buy a property to rent as holiday let when relocate

Thanks for all of your replies, you've all been very helpful.
I knew that the fines had already started on the Canary Islands, so it comes as no surprise that it happens in Spain.

Would like to buy a property to rent as holiday let when relocate

Me and OH would like to relocate to Spain at some point (Malaga area). He is 57 and had...

Re: Advice for relocating please, possibly Murcia

So another thing we'll need to consider are heating bills. We are looking to rent a 2 bedroom villa, is the cost of heating expensive in Spain?

Murcia seems to be a pretty big region Cricketman - are you saying that all of it is desert like in culture etc? I have to say, from looking at Bri and Katee's photos, the part where they are at...

Hmm... I think Almeria is off the list. Funnily enough I was thinking earlier that we don't want to be hours away from an airport, partly because no doubt my family will be thinking of 'free...

Re: Advice for relocating please, possibly Murcia

The fact that Cartegena isn't a tourist resort does appeal in a way. Whilst we're not too bothered about living in an ex pat area, it would be nice to be near some Brits :-)

Thanks for your reply Missile. Another place which has been mentioned to us is Costa Brava, so we're going to have a look into that.

Re: Relocating to Lanzarote and renting advice please

Have any of you on here kept your properties in the UK? Keeping the main one (i.e. the one we rent out) would be an option I suppose, but we're not mortgage free and the rent doesn't cover the...

Re: Relocating to Lanzarote and renting advice please

Oh right I see!
It's all in the timing then.If there is an exemption for over 65's it won't apply as my husband is 53 and I'm 39.
Nothing's ever straightforward is it?
