To help you start your search Robika, there are many 1 and 2 bedroom properties in the €50/60k price bracket in the Torreta 2 area of Torrevieja.

It is on the outskirts of Torrevieja, very near a Carrefour Hypermarket, a shopping Mall and very close to several bars and restaurants.

Pressing on This Link will take you to properties for sale in Torreta 2.

 It sounds like  you need some big estate agents with a lot of properties in the Torrevieja area who can help with your search. Here are two  that I know of  --you can have a look at some of their properties online &  can contact them if you see anything of interest.

Thank You! I WILL look at those.But agent are want to make up your minde and pay.I am a wery slow decision maker and first on my own want to discover the whole region around Torreevija and the city itselves too.For that I would need a person with a car who  nose everything.It can be a spanis speeking collage student who wants to make an extra box or a retire person who has a lot of extra time.If no car i have rent one.But the person have to know a lot.once on line I  was looking houses a region when finally i have learned their house flod by big rains every year.These are what i would like to learn first.I have just read september is too wet.Maybe i am going october or november.If you are an agen trust me you dont want to spend 16 hours with me daily and still noting.FIRST on my own if the fate will be nice to me and send me somebody.🙂

Hi Robika

When we bought we caught the bus from the city centre and took it into the various urbanizations and then just wandered around. 

G Line - San Luis goes through 4 or5 areas ( La Siesta, El Chapparal, Carrefour) and runs every 40 mins. 

B Line goes through the Torreta areas 

A line - La Mata goes along beach front into the area. Nice trip. 

Tickets for each journey are €1.35 and you get to see every area at a nice slow pace, getting off and on as you see fit. €5.40 per day could get you 4 journeys in and around an area and after a few days you'll get to know the routes and landmarks. 

Good luck

Will.

The bus suggestion is perfect. I think I’d take a notebook with me and record anything that appeals to you and anything that you dislike. After travelling on all routes, cross off the areas that don’t appeal to you,  make a list of the places you’d consider. Take the bus again and this  time get out and walk about.  Note positives and negatives. Now you are ready to visit an estate agent to enquire about an affordable home. Enquire about areas that have experienced flooding and take them off your list. 

Before arriving in Torrevieja, make a list of what you would like eg coastal walks, mountain views or whatever appeals to you.  Don’t let your heart rule your head. Remember what you actually would like and try to get it. 

You will notice on your trip by bus, many houses/ apartments are for sale privately.  Make a note if the ‘phone numbers.  Take a photo with your iPhone of the property, telephone number  and the area. This will give you something tangible to look at after you day of searching.  

I’m sorry that I can’t offer to help you during your visit as I don’t live in Spain. 

Many homes in Torrevieja don’t have the luxury of a pool, some do. The urbanisations on the outskirts usually have a community pool. Perhaps a pool isn’t important and if not, put that on your list!

You will have to put a lot of serious thought into your choice of home. Car parking, big or small outside space, proximity to sea/ beach, storage, close to bank, restaurants, health centres,supermarket and more.  Will you have a car when you come to live or will you use the bus? All vitally important factors.

You can do it!  Make plans and lists!

That's a brilliant idea Will, I'm gonna use this myself when I visit, never would have thought of it!!
