Not sure where you own a property Darrin or where you are coming from with your comments. We moved here, just to the North of Peurto Lumbreras, 5 years ago and everyone we have met and been in contact with have been extremely helpful. We sold up in the UK many years ago and lived in Franc for 5 years before making the move to Spain and have absolutely no intention of moving back to the UK, especially the South East where we used to live. So in answer to JenniferH2022 question, it would be a good idea to rent initially before you settle on a permanent location as there are many wonderful parts of Spain to set up home. For the record, it is no more difficult for UK citizens than any other European provided you have the capital behind you and can meet the NLV requirements, which I would suggest that the vast number of UK citizens that are still making the move, are more than capable of doing. Best of luck with your search Jennifer.
