Hello, I'm new on here. I'm moving from England with my family.

From my small knowledge (having had several complicated problems with land here) would suggest in the first instance that you contact reputable agents and find a good - bi-lingual? - solicitor. There are many of these here. 'Buying two largish plots' indicates that you are thinking of a rural area. To the best of my knowledge, in an area classified as 'rural' land, not 'urban', you need a minimum of 10.000,00 (ten thousand) square metres to erect so much as a chicken coop, even if the local Town Hall (ayuntamiento) would permit it, which is not certain. Also there will be no services there, or at the least, highly unlikely, so you may like to consider the cost of installation of power, water etc. As well,  I recently read that, especially in rural areas, you should check again with the ayuntamiento as to whether they will permit you to 'let' it - I understand that there may be an issue with possible competition with existing rural business. How accurate any of this is, I cannot say, but we bought in a rural area and discovered the difficulties afterwards. All my advice would be is to treble check absolutely everything you want to do - and do not assume that because in UK we would not consider XY or Z to be an issue, that the same will apply here. And we had a good bilingual solicitor, but misunderstandings only became apparent some time later.

Having now poured cold water - which was not really my intention - good luck and I am sure you will be very happy, it is a beautiful country.

Also, follow up, suggest that you register with kyero.com - Spanish equivalent of rightmove. Virtually everything appears to be listed with them, by all agents. There are the usual various filters to be applied which will help with your search, but do be aware that there is no such thing as an exclusive agency agreement here, any agent can sell any property, so you will see properties listed with multiple agents - you pays your money and you takes your pick!!!!!

Contact Jaime Jones at the Olive Tree estate agents. She is very good and fluent in Spanish.

Casa del senor large plot available 5 mins from pinosa 

Hi my brother has a place in Pinoso and I am there at the moment. It is a fabulous little typical Spanish town full of character. It may not be what you wish for though as it is at least 1 hour 15 mins from the nearest beach -Steve

Thank you Steve. :)
