Hi Treena, yes you can spend more than 3 months a year.  You just have to follow the Shengen rule which is that you can spend up to 90 days out of every 180 days.  So just less than 6 months of the year you can still stay in Spain  just not all together. You can break up the amount...

... of time as long as you follow the 90/180 day rule.  So if you plan carefully you can avoid the hot summer months and the cold nights in the winter and still enjoy plenty of time here.  Good luck.

Thank you

I do find it strange or extremely naïve that you bought a property in Spain without knowing or being aware of the residency rules to some extent. There has been so much talk of Brexit and the problems since leaving the EU surely you would have heard something especially about the 'plight of the British illegals'. I am amazed that your Solicitor did not raise it during the sales process as they would have known your Nationality.

You will have to see if you can qualify for the Non-Lucrative Visa, the exact figures have been on other threads on this site but from memory you need to have a little less than €40000 per annum for a couple or savings that are a multiple of that.
