Re: lost n.i.e. number

Our solicitor says that she will open a bank account for us and get our NIEs - all part of the service for which we pay 1%.

Re: Ayamonte - Costa Esuri - Part III

We looked at the Mirador when we went in Feb but were frightened off by the political situation there. You must have bought phase 1 - our agent told us they have already put the completion back by 6...

Re: Ayamonte - Costa Esuri - Part III

I don't know, but it sounds to me like everyone is waiting for the council to get its thumb out, not Fadesa.

I know that the Tasa development on the Costa Esuri site and also the Mirador...

Re: Ayamonte - Isla Canela

What type of flamenco do you want to learn? There are all sorts. If you want to dance at the Ferias then you will need to learn SEVILLANAS. Make sure you learn the right one!

Re: Ayamonte - Costa Esuri - Part III

Our Rago apartment isn't due to be ready until 2007, so we are not yet affected by the LFO. However, there is something that I am not clear on and perhaps someone would be kind enough to explain it...

Re: lost n.i.e. number

Or just get your solicitor to do it all for you. It should be part of their service.

Re: legal requirements for rentals?

No need to evict your tenants before the 12 months are up. Just do the contract for 11 months and then renew it every 11 months.

Re: Bulgaria - Bansko

Lighten up, Ray! The reason we are "toying" with the idea is because we are at the information gathering stage, not the decision making stage.

Info about the quality/quantity of the ski runs,...

Bulgaria - Bansko

We've been toying with the idea of buying a 2 bed apt in Bansko as it seems so cheap and we love to ski.

But we haven't had an opportunity to visit yet. Has anyone else been there/bought a...

Re: Don´t buy property in Spain or you will lose a lot of money

But I do doubt this very much. National reports talk about stagnant Spanish markets in Madrid, Barcelona, etc and also in the mature tourist markets such as del Sol, Blanca, etc. If you don't want...

Re: Don´t buy property in Spain or you will lose a lot of money

Prices in the Costa de la Luz are still going up quite rapidly. But the market is totally different to the mature markets like Costa del Sol or Blanca. It only started developing about 5 years ago.

Re: Paying tax on rental income

The way I read it - if your property is valued at 200,000 you are liable for tax on 2% of that value, ie 4000 euros. Income tax is 25%(?). 25% of 4000 is 1000 euros per year. Much easier to...
