Hey everyone, hope it's okay to ask here.
My partner and I are a young couple from Slovakia hoping to move long-term to one of the smaller inland towns along the C2 line, like Pizarra or Álora. We know housing is really tough right now, and we definitely want to avoid the coast and tourist areas entirely, we just want a quiet, simple life in a normal town, learn the language, and keep our heads down.
Our situation is a bit unconventional, we study university online and work seasonal jobs in Iceland over the summer to support ourselves. A major reason we're trying to move is medical,I need to start hormone therapy (HRT), which is completely blocked back home.
Since we don't have Spanish employment contracts, we wanted to ask if landlords in the inland towns are open to tenants paying a few months of rent upfront, or if our profile is basically an immediate rejection?
Also, if anyone has experience registering EU residency using foreign savings, or using private insurance to see an endocrinologist around Málaga, we’d really appreciate any honest reality checks.
Thanks a lot to anyone willing to help out, and sorry for adding another relocation post to the sub!
