Buying a Home in Spain by David Hampshire - Our BESTSELLER!
A very comprehensive guide to buying a place in Spain. There's a wealth of facts in this book so don't expect to absorb it all on the first reading. - But don't worry, it's all presented in a very readable and humorous style. The author also provides a useful insight into some of the less palatable aspects of property ownership in Spain (not that Spain is any worse than any other country) and this means that we can approach our negotiations with much more confidence.

The third series returns to Europe and additionally includes properties in Greece, Turkey, Slovenia, Croatia and Romania.
