What’s happening to Costa property prices?

Prices across Andalucía (I don't know about the rest of Spain) are falling a lot. We have seen some drop by up to 40%. The Costas are not being hit so very badly because they are very popular with N Europeans.

 

[gosub]

Still don't see how unless you lived in Ireland at the time...

Its not what you know. But I really didn't see the point in staying in the UK and getting an EU passportt

Freedom of movement?

Never had a problem with it myself and didn't assume we'd lose it. I also would n't have found it that hard to find work in the EU (prior to Covid) if I'd have wanted it

But prior the UK was in the EU or the transition period.

You think it will be as easy for a Brit once COVID blows over?

Yes, the period where them's who valued EU citizenship above other things (and could) sorted their shit out.
No.

I think you'll not find it easy now. You will need a visa at the very least, unless you have an EU passport.

No.

Unless you have an EU passport or some sort of residency in an EU country (but that would only cover you in that country), then I think you might be in for a surprise

You are not talking TO me. You are talking AT me

That's cleared that up.

Instead of talking in riddles, why don't you clarify what you've been typing.

You have a UK passport and "could have" got an Irish one because you were married to someone Irish (that's not how it works btw).

And you think you'll have no problems working in the EU despite now losing your freedom of movement.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks this makes zero sense.

I think when he realises that being married to someone with an Irish passport doesn't cover him to live, work, and move around the EU freely and unhindered...

So when you ask someone 'If they think it would as easy in the future and they reply NO, you have difficulty understanding. Visa's weren't and still won't be a problem for me.

Weren't because the UK was in the EU.

You think it will be the same now? If you do, you're in the minority.

Brits are already excluded from applying from lots of EU jobs.

I am sure plenty of Brits will be able to go down the Visa route, but they will be in a minority.

With the extra faff, many EU employers simply won't bother it.

What industry do you work in that the EU have in such short supply they would employ a Brit?

My uncle, who never lived in Ireland, was married to an Irish citizen and (albeit after many years of marriage) got Irish citizenship

What’s happening to Costa property prices?

About 8 years ago I went on a weeks holiday with two mates near Torrevieja rented a three bedroom apartment off one of their friends on a fairly new urbanisation for £150 .It was desolate tbh as most were holiday lets and it was March. The adverts for the apartments were still up quoting £160k . Spoke to this Irish guy who lived there and he reckoned you could pick them up resale at around half that.

Doing what?

 

[Doppelgänger]

That's not how it works now though. I assume there must have been a different set of rules when your uncle did it.

Think there's already a thread for pub names.

Weird post. Does it mean ‘the period when lots of British people applied for EU citizenships?’

that's a rather prejudiced point of view, when (like you) many people found out they were in fact irish, slovenian, french etc

at worst many formerly mono-nationals found out there were formerly unknown european aspects to them which felicitously allowed them to retain freedom of movement

True. I am really excited to go to Slovakia, see my fellow Slovakians, about whom I know nothing and can’t understand a word they’re saying.

yeh so no doubt you'll speak slowly and loudly in english and allow them to practice their grasp of the tongue of shakespeare and swinburne

Couldn't help thinking some tax man or other is going bite that on the bum, like when someone whose had a US passport tries selling a house in the UK
