Hi,
I’m new to the site, only registered last week but already
read a number of very interesting & relevant articles.
In short, we are an early/mid 50s couple who are hoping to spend
some time in Spain in our retirement/semi-retirement, and I feel that the Denia area would appeal.
I don’t think we’d be looking to relocate permanently but
had this general idea of spending about 6m here and 6m there.
However, I can see from this and other threads that this wouldn’t
now be possible based on the 90 out of 180 day rule which the likes of
jimtayloer & RayD have mentioned and explained a number of times in this & other threads.
Long term I like the idea of buying a place but whether or
not that would happen we’d look to rent initially, for the many reasons
suggested.
So I’m wondering if, with this inability now to stay/rent
for 6 continuous months, does this make it more difficult or unlikely to be able to rent a place for this reduced length to time, as I'm assuming that most long term rentals would normally be for 6 or 12m?
Is anyone aware of the general availability/options for renting for this shorter 3m period?
One other question, I've read a number of times about the income requirements for residency etc. increasing (from memory approx. from about 700 to 2400 Euro/month). Is this per person or couple?
Thanks
Paul
