I am moving hopefully to Camposol with the next 3-4 months and getting out of the US. I have a 1200 sqft home and between property taxes and home insurance , I pay almost $11,000 per year and my mortgage is roughly $3100 per month and payed $450,000 for this small home.

Not looking to make a fortune but would need to get by. Also can I ask, as you mentioned cost of living at about 600 per month, I am assuming this excludes any form of rent or mortgage? Keep up the good work and I think you have already won me over to the Camposol region.

Hi there, firstly I am not qualified to advise, it does not affect me as much as I'm from southern Ireland, my hubby from down under with uk passport, we pay into the system as we pay taxes self-employed here keyholding gardening and villa maintenance but you need to get your resident and NIE, private medical insurance which is around 700 euro, you need to ask on expat forums and such like, there is (costa Calida forum), nothing to do with me but lots of advice there, but some of it you can do from the UK, go to your Spanish consulate .you have to prove you will not be a burden on the state, so I think if you become self-employed you have to prove you earned a certain amount in the first yr of trading OR you need a certain amount of money in the Bank to show you can support yourself, there are some ladies here that are translators ,for this area like Debbie Shaw and Fiona Harvey but you really need to do start your research, sorry this is not enough ,i would not like to steer you wrong way x

We have visited Spain and love it. We were wondering if there is a rental market in your area? We want to rent for 6 months and see how things go and also to give us time to visit and see other parts of Spain before we make a decision on where to live. Is there a site that you recommend for long term rentals?
