Hello, newbie here

I'm married to a Spaniard and we have two little children.  We have lived in Spain but are now living in the UK....but wish to return to Spain again!   We own our own flat in a town called Cuevas del Almanzora, in the old part of town so not a new build which is falling down (feel so sorry for people buying those out of town places as  some are starting to have serious cracks and other major problems etc.).  Our flat is on the market but we accept that in this climate we will keep hold of it and live in it when we return until we find a perfect place (an old cortijo with space for our boys to run around).  I just wish that each time we find a place that the paperwork would match up with what actually exists for the eye!   There are so many time wasters (sorry to say lots of Brits) who 'believe' that their properties are worth X but actually if the deeds aren't right then it is worth only what someone wants to pay for it.

We are chomping at the bit as they say to return to Spain but also we are nervous as the economy there is dead and there is no work (most of husbands family are struggling at the moment and that is without any of them having mortgages to pay).  

Anyway, I hope to share info and receive info on this site so welcome!
