Turn Your Dream of Moving to Spain Into a Real Plan

Our experience was of much relief when questions that a previous consultant faltered on were answered credibly and positively. We will keep working with this group. Thank you!

Working with Moving to Spain has been an incredibly positive experience. In November 2024, my spouse and I decided to spend our retirement abroad, and after some deliberation decided to move to Spain. It became clear that in order to navigate the visa process, we would need help. Alison and Alastair have provided guidance and reassurance at every step, have assembled a great deal of online content on various aspects of moving to Spain, and have gathered a comprehensive team of subject matter experts - Raquel and the BeGlobal team for the visa process, ASSSA and Innoinsure and others for the (required) private health insurance, Louis at Extretramites for tax and finance guidance, and more. All were endlessly patient with my relentless questions and constant need for reassurance.

We decided to move to Murcia, a region less traveled by tourists and expats. Complicating our search for a rental house was that we would essentially be committing to a place without an initial exploratory trip. MtS initially didn't have a Murcia real estate contact, but they rapidly found Jessica from JustMurciaProperty. Jessica listened carefully to our preferences and offered a number of alternatives. She gave us an online video tour of the rental we settled on, coordinated with the rental agent and owner to respond to our (innumerable) questions, coordinated signing of the lease, and met us at the property with our keys when we moved there in mid-December 2025. After arriving, we needed further assistance in setting up internet service, and Jessica made the necessary contacts. Meanwhile, the BeGlobal legal team has provided ongoing support toward getting an NIE number and TIE identification card. Compared to horror stories I've read online from others with less preparation grappling with Spain's formidable bureaucracy, our relocation from the beginning to the present has rolled along smoothly as if on trolley tracks. I have only good things to say about Moving to Spain.

As retirees, we were thrilled to discover MovingToSpain.com as it made our planning so much easier than going at it alone. The experts they made available to us - from immigration legal experts to finance and tax counselors, professional movers and real estate professionals have been invaluable. The advice is always practical and pragmatic. They took our life circumstances and made recommendations that made sense for us. We never were made to feel like we were using cookie cutter solutions. I would recommend MovingToSpain.com to anyone who is seriously considering a move. They are easy to talk to; quick to respond; and their counsel is grounded in reality.
