Spain's rich cultural traditions, excellent climate and leisure opportunities continue to attract an increasing number of overseas visitors on a long- and short-term basis. Whether you want to buy for investment, as a holiday let or for permanent residence, Spain has much to offer. Buying a property there, whether it be a village house, city apartment or costal villa, has its own rules though and author, Harry King, has all the information you need to make your purchase as easy as possible. In this book he leads you through the processes of: deciding where to go and what to buy, searching for properties, taking care of your finances and the legal documentation, organising your move, dealing with taxation, and settling in and enjoying your new lifestyle. The Spanish economy has boomed and the current pace of change in Spain is dramatic, purposeful and peaceful - it is the perfect place in which to buy a home and develop a new attitude: of living for today and not tomorrow.
