Advice please
HELP!?! We are flying out in a couple of weeks to view properties with a view to purchasing one. So many questions though! Our plan is to buy a property to live in from Oct to March and return to our home in the UK April to September. This would mean leaving our UK property unoccupied for 6 months and our hoped for Fuert property unoccupied for 6 months although it's likely we, family and friends would use the Fuert propert during the summer months but not consistently. Wanting to be able to return when we want to the UK property and wanting family and friends to use the hoped for Fuer property during the summer, renting out either property is not practical. We plan to buy the Fuert property by cashing in pension lump sums/shares/savings as we are of retirement age. Is there anyone out there who's been in a similar situation and made the big move? It's the practicalities we are concerned about i.e do we draw cash using ATMs from our UK bank or should we open an account on Fuet? What are the Spanish/UK tax implications? Would we need to take our health insurance for the 6 months per year we were on Fuert? Any advice whatsoever would be very much appreciated
