Anyhow, you'll be fine in Almeria (not my preferred choice but anyway) although 30.000 for a business is a bit light. Are you earning good money out of your UK rental? I personally would suggest selling it as that would set you up nicely here in Spain. |

Re: spanish virgin
Hi.
We live in Almeria. :thumbup: We lived near Alicante for over 3 years but fell in love with the area here when we came for a weekend away. There are plenty of areas where there are lots of english people and Mojacar and Roquetas are big holiday areas with loads of english and spanish owned businesses. If you let me know what areas you are thinking of I may be able to head you in the right direction for rentals and businesses. I have found Viva Almeria very handy, they have a great message board too :D |

Cant help with Almeria but you will find €30,000 a very small sum for purchasing a business. Quite often you have to pay so much rent up front as well as the traspasso and you do really need to keep some in reserve for emergencies. Certainly Alicante to Javea there are very very few businesses for that sum of money.
Unless there's genuine goodwill, never pay a traspaso. Never done it, never will. |
Re: spanish virgin
Hi
Welcome to BE, when we had our short stay in spain hubby could of got a job with driving a transporter back to the uk, however like we said if he was coming back to the uk all the time there was no point in moving, there is a lot of hgv jobs however you do need the language as most are with spanish companys. If we would of stayed there hubby was going to try other things rather than driving. Where abouts will you be going xxx |
