We hear horror stories all the time from potential buyers missing out on their Spanish dream home because of a simple number.

This is a crucial step that often catches buyers off guard: getting your Número de Identidad de Extranjero (NIE).

While many buyers think a number can be simple and quick to get, they are often disappointed when things don’t go as fast as they wish - which is why it is crucial to be in the know about the steps needed to get your NIE number before you buy.

Which is why in this episode of The Costa Property Podcast, Sandra shares the why and the how of the NIE number, plus insider tips to make the process easier.

So before you plan your move, tune in to this episode to find out exactly what you need to know!

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What the NIE Number Really Means for You: it's more than just a formality
• Our Client’s Story: Hear why this personal experience will change the way you think about the NIE process.
• Applying for an NIE: Should you apply from home or once you're in Spain?
• Insider Tips for a Smooth Process: Learn key tips to simplify your application and avoid common pitfalls.

In this episode of The Costa Property Podcast, we're going to discuss grieving the loss of a spouse while still holding on to the dreams that you once shared together.

Particularly that dream of moving to the beautiful sunny Spain.

Our guest, Cat O’Brien, an incredible grief coach, joins us to discuss how grief can intertwine with major life decisions, such as buying a dream property abroad, and how to honour loved ones while pursuing new beginnings.

You will discover:

• How grief can affect life decisions, such as buying property alone after losing a loved one

• The difference between grief coaching and counselling, and why coaching focuses on moving forward

• Real-life stories of clients who have pursued dreams, like relocating to Spain, despite their loss

• Practical ways to honour a loved one in a new home or life journey

• How to deal with the guilt and opinions of others while following your heart

Cat shares her own powerful story of losing her partner suddenly and how she learned to live out the dreams they had together and this episode offers hope for anyone navigating loss.

Key Takeaways:

• You don’t have to “move on” from grief; instead, you can carry your loved one with you in new ways.

• Language matters - rethinking common phrases like “I’m sorry for your loss” can make a huge impact on those grieving.

• It’s possible to continue living out dreams shared with a loved one while honouring their memory in meaningful ways.
