    Great video! I thought all those extra costs you mentioned would add up to 10% of the purchase price. You say it's more like 13-14%. Okay, good to know. Anna and I are a few steps behind you, but we're getting the eventually. 😊👍

    • @TheRamblingIrishman
      @TheRamblingIrishman  4 місяці тому +3

      I'll be interested to see what it works out at, but from estate agents to solicitors 13 to 14% seems to be the norm. Good luck with your quest! 😊

      @@TheRamblingIrishman You haven’t had an easy time of it at all. It’s been a long and eventful road from flying your Drone at Knockagh Monument to now settling down in Spain. Through out the recent years, you’ve always remain positive educating and inspiring the rest of us in equal measure keeping it real with Nor Iron humour. So here’s to ya for keeping’er lit and being positive👍 I look forward to more Spanish life and traveling tales. Im now planning my own escape and looking around Rhonda to see of any affordable property is still available. Take care.

If you're out and about in Villamartin again my husband and I can meet for a coffee, beer and we can tell you how to go about everything. We just did the same as you last year and we would have loved someone to guide us. Give us a txt and we'll try to help you out as best we can 😊
