    'A place in the sun' is a programme I have made many complaints about to no avail. They do not mention the 90 days in 180 days rule for non EU citizens, and you can face a very substantial fine and ban from EU entry for up to two years if you overstay the 90 days and non-EU passports are stamped with the date of arrival and exit so they will certainly know if you overstay nor do they mention the fact that it is illegal to rent out a property without applying for and being granted a permit and permission to rent out the home as a holiday letting, which is very hard to get and very strict rental conditions are imposed, and you are taxed on the rental income, and you can face huge fines for illegally letting out property. They also, as you found out, never mention the yearly property tax that you have to pay or council tax or the community feels that depending on where you live and if you have a communal swimming pool and lifts can be very high. The legal fees of buying a property in Spain are much higher than in the UK, about 10% of the value of the property that you buy, and it is essential to use a Spanish property solicitor who will check that there are no debts on the property and that utility and communal fees have been paid and that it is registered in the land registry and then ensure that you are registered in the land registry as the new owner. They also do not say that the place you had a great holiday in during the summer and that was lively and buzzing can be a ghost town in the winter with a lot of bars, cafés, restaurants et al. shut down. Nor do they mention that no matter how much you pay for a property, they are built out of breeze blocks, some hollow bricks and a thin vernier of plaster and paint and most have no sound insulation so you can hear every sound your neighbours make, especially the TV set that is usually very loud and can be bitterly cold in winter as most do not have any form of gas central heating and Calor gas heaters smell awful and give of water vapour than can lead to mould and damp as well as carbon monoxide poisoning. I made the mistake of buying a flat in Santa Ponsa, Mallorca where it literally was a ghost town in winter and I do not drink either, so I was climbing the walls with boredom. My advice to anyone thinking of moving to Spain is to rent somewhere for the winter and if you get through the winter, then think about buying a place but bear in mind that if you are not an Eu citizen then a 100% tax is going to be imposed on all non EU citizens that buy property in Spain that will effectively double the price of any property that you buy and all the non EU citizen rules will still apply until or if you can obtain Spanish residency. If you are retired, you might be better off renting a one bedroom property for 90 days in winter or renting a two bedroom property with another retired couple that you know which might work out as the ideal solution for you, bearing in mind that you then won't be able to visit another EU country for a further six months.

      Hi Simon and Sue, the live was a disaster, we blame virgin media's very slow M50 package which promises 5 Mbps but delivers sometimes less than 2mbps. We have now negotiated a better deal with a faster connection so next one should be all good....Hope you have a great Cgristmas and a Happy 2025, we'll see you next year sometime....

    Great video as usual Mike & Yvonne, I take it you were using a big camera and not the 360 or the Osmo pocket 3 for the amazing super clear flamingo shots. Fantastic super clear video, well done.

      Hi GilmoresTravels, thanks for watching and for your comment. I used my Sony A6700 APS-c camera with a Sony 70-350mm G master telephoto lens to get the shots of the flamingos. A very nice compact mirrorless camera of amazing quality. Best wishes, Mike and Yvonne.

    The new bus station will save 20min off the journey home for me also, and 10min off the Airport run, so all good news. Will give access to more people and more new routes, and help congestion in the City ...it's a win win

    Literally the last patch of green space for miles by the look of it. Instead of 2 buses to the airport it's going to be at least 4 by the sound of it from our place an absolute bore of a journey and no dought a hell of a lot more expensive. I like the edge you get with the old bus station it feels like you could be anywhere in south america when you arrive there

    • @BetweenTheLakes
      @BetweenTheLakes หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Adrian, thanks for watching. We normally just fill in the 210 form and download it as a PDF and then take it to the bank to pay, so we haven't experienced the IBAN section and paying online. We do hope to try this for our next one, so I won't be able to tell you until we have actually done it. It sounds like you have done it fine as you wouldn't get that "no errors" notification if you hadn't. Be sure to print off the completed PDF or save it to your computer for reference numbers etc. All the best with it and let us know how you got on paying it online
