Good luck with your plans! I only arrived a couple of weeks ago so am in the early stages of the process. I'd advise you to get yourself someone to help with all the paperwork especially if your Spanish isn't great and now that time is short for us uk citizens.
If you're coming to the Vera/mojacar area I'd happily recommend Paula similie who is helping me out.
You mention retirement, if you're 65 or over it may change the capital gains tax situation greatly in your favour, so definitely take some good advice on that front.
I also opened a bank account online before I came over and transferred funds here sufficient to cover the application. If you are in receipt of regular pension income you may not need to worry about this, but I'm currently not!!! If you are uk state pensioners you'll get your S1 for healthcare, otherwise do look into a few quotes and try to get as much info in advance as you can, it reduces the stress on arrival!
