HI ALL

I FIND MYSELF AT THIS STAGE IN MY LIFE ALONE, DO I MOVE TO SPAIN, I HAVE NO FAMILY OR FRIENDS IN SPAIN AND MY FINANCIAL POSITION ISNT FANTASTIC.

I WILL HAVE CASH OF ABOUT 100,000 AND A PENSION FUND OF 65,000, I DONT HAVE ANY FURTHER INCOME AND MY UK STATE PENSION DOESNT START UNTIL I AM 66 YEARS OLD, WOULD I BE ABLE TO AFFORD TO LIVE IN SPAIN, I WOULD HOPE TO BUY A SMALL PROPERTY AND LIVE ON THE REMAINING FUNDS.  I DONT HAVE AN EXTRAVAGANT LIFESTYLE IN ENGLAND, ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREAT.

I AM IN TORREVIEJA UNTIL MONDAY, HAVING SPENT A WEEK LOOKING AROUND, I HAVE FOUND IT QUITE DIFFICULT, I AM STILL WAITING TO HEAR A BRITISH ACCENT, I AM TRYING TO LEARN SPANISH AT HOME AT THE MOMENT, BUT HAVENT FOUND THE LOCALS TOO FRIENDLY OR IS IT JUST ME

I HAVE MADE ONE DECISION I DONT WANT TO LIVE ON THE SEAFRONT AS I THOUGHT I WOULD.

I AWAIT IN ANTICIPATION

Hi. I'm in a similar position to you. I went to torrevieja in September with a view to rent for six months. However I found it difficult to source a place that was on the ground floor and allow my two cats. 

I decided I didn't want to live in torrevieja so I bought a bungalow in algorfa. I'm going there full time on 24th November. I would have been there by now but for constant delays with my uk house sale. 

I'm using my half of the sale proceeds to buy the house in algorfa and live off of until my pension starts. I'm male and 63 so don't have quite as long to wait and I have a couple of small work pensions.

I say don't look back in five years time and think I should have done it.

Hello Tokai, 

If you do not like me it is up to you!!! 

I am from Germany, I killed nobody and my english is quite good though. A british accent would be extemly difficult. I speak a little Spanish. At the moment I live  in Alcoy. I run my litte company from here. 

No rent. I am 65. Age is how you feel.
