Just saying hi to all our friends in La Alfoquia. Stuck here in Scotland when we would normally be out there this time of year. Planning to make the permanent move this year, but if Coronavirus doesn't go away before Boris enforces Brexit, who knows where that will leave us.

Keep well, keep safe, keep your distance. Enjoy the sunshine (snow in UK today!)

Hello Sue & Kevin

So sorry to hear of your circumstances, we too are in a similar position ie. Part purchase of a property in Costa Almeria.  Have you heard of any extension being put in place regarding the Brexit date? We are in such a dilemma, as I'm sure you are! Any information would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you so much.

Regards Andrea x

Hi, we have owed a property in La Alfoquia for 4 years, but finally planned to move permanantly this year. We have sold our businesses and have offer on our UK property, all ready to go, but now can't move ahead. At least some lobbying is now starting to get a Brexit delay considered in light of the current crisis. We wanted to be insitu in time to begin our claim for residency, time is now not on our side. 

In light of world crisis, this seems personal and trivial, but we are not alone and Boris needs to delay so that personal and business plans have a chance to recover post crisis.
