Hi Steve, your comment is very valid, it was a quick fire question without a great deal of thought or information. We have researched income, health insurance , medical costs for current illnesses etc and are in a position to hire for 12 months and then purchase somewhere up to 150K plus fees, SUMA etc. I am also a qualified plumber, but I dont intend on doing too much when we move over. We have been looking at La Marina and Guardamar for over a year, but plan on taking a year out (probably next Nov onwards) between long term rentals and the van to find the place we want to settle in. Obviously Brexit may well affect what we can and cant do, and for how long as visitors, but hopefully by the time we pack the van we should have better direction. I joined this Forum to try to get a feel for the ex pat community around Pinoso, I have done the same for the other two areas and have made a few contacts to meet up with (if COVID ever allows it) when we can get over.
Maybe I would have been best placed just reading through the posts for a few days. However as I jumped in feet first, I might as well see what comes back.
Once again, thanks for taking the time to reply to me.
