For families across Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, and Switzerland
No visa. No red tape. Just the right home, in the right place, done properly.
As an EU citizen, moving to Spain isn’t a legal challenge — it’s a logistics and taste challenge. Finding the right coastal town, the right property, the right school, and building a genuine life here, not just a holiday base. That’s where people who actually live it make the real difference.

Freedom of movement means the hard part is already solved
The question isn’t “will I get approved.” It’s “did I choose the right place.”
If you’re an EU citizen, Spain’s borders are already open to you. Germans, Dutch, Belgians, and French nationals can live in Spain indefinitely under EU freedom of movement, with only light administrative registration required — an EU registration certificate and a foreigner identification number (NIE), both straightforward without the income thresholds, document apostilles, or waiting periods that non-EU applicants face. Swiss citizens benefit from a similar bilateral agreement.
That changes what actually matters for this move. The question isn’t “will I get approved.” It’s “did I choose the right town, the right property, and the right school — and did I do it without overpaying or getting burned by a rushed decision.”
What actually matters for this move
Three things that make or break the experience.
Property, done properly
The Costa Blanca offers genuine property opportunities across every range, and knowing which ones are actually worth your attention takes years of real, on-the-ground depth in this specific market — not a portal search.
Schooling that fits your family
International and bilingual schooling options across the Costa Blanca’s upscale towns, matched to your children’s ages and your family’s long-term plans. Our on-the-ground knowledge covers which schools families actually recommend to each other, not just which ones appear in listings.
Healthcare and daily life, sorted properly
Excellent private medical facilities throughout this coast, English-speaking and internationally trusted, alongside the real texture of daily life: where the good doctors are, which beach clubs are worth the membership, how the local culture actually works once the tourist season ends.
Why Costa Blanca’s upscale towns, specifically
Jávea and Altea: Spain’s quietest luxury, hiding in plain sight.
Jávea and Altea offer something Marbella’s more crowded luxury market increasingly doesn’t: genuine natural beauty, a quieter and more discerning international community, and property that has historically held its value without the price inflation of Spain’s most saturated luxury markets. This is where wealthy German, Dutch, Belgian, and French families have quietly built second homes and full-time residences for decades.
