Enter your requirements and how much you'd like to pay on rent or mortgage repayments each month to see places in your price range.
Only thing is the calculator should also build in how long you are willing to make mortgage payments. Using a mid-value 3 bedroom property as a guideline I can buy in up to 60% of the UK. London and regions around are totally out of my range.

Anyone in other parts of Europe got a similar calculator for their countries? Would make interesting comparisons.
Come down here. Houses are cheap and the moment and you can get them at a fraction of London homes. You can get a new sea view house with 3 bedrooms and a pool for Euros 300K and a used 3 bedroom with tennis and a pool for Euro 250 K, if you look.
Is there any kind of similar online calculator for Spain?
Never seen one for Spain but here, like anywhere else in Europe (at least Western Europe) an affordable place in a low earning area doesn't really help.Only thing is the calculator should also build in how long you are willing to make mortgage payments.

If I were to buy 9 ha of land, I'd shoot myself immediately afterwards. Or at least have myself committed. Fortunately that beautiful estate has only a tenth of that but even then, I personally would have to be able to afford the help in maintaining even that.~.....................Beautiful setting, pool, 9ha. of land - gorgeous!..............~
You're quite right, 9,000 m2, not 9ha.If I were to buy 9 ha of land, I'd shoot myself immediately afterwards. Or at least have myself committed. Fortunately that beautiful estate has only a tenth of that but even then, I personally would have to be able to afford the help in maintaining even that.
I can't talk, I just laid a plastic lawn. :shock: No water, y'see.Right now I'm toying with the idea of completely cementing the little garden I have and placing just two or three plastic flowers in it.:mrgreen:
Hey, now THAT's an idea. :lol:~..............I can't talk, I just laid a plastic lawn. :shock: No water, y'see.

Yes but the catch is I have to live in Southern Spain
Never seen one, but there is a ton of wonderful property available for a snip around here. Things like this one:
Inmobiliaria Rogelio
Beautiful setting, pool, 9ha. of land - gorgeous! I've got nothing to do with it btw mods, so I'm not spamming, just giving an idea.
Or how about a fixer-upper for peanuts?

Those have to be some of ugliest homes I have ever seen.
Well apart from the darkness raging within not necessarily being to the taste of somebody used to Montreal (one needs to know the Andalusian summer sun to get it), that bathroom raises not only the question of who tiled it but, more importantly, who was he mad at?:lol:~................. but the first? Seriously? Wow! No accounting for taste, I guess. ....~
Well, the second one, sure. It needs a helluva lot of work, but the first? Seriously? Wow! No accounting for taste, I guess. Why don't you post us something that you could buy for that kind of money, say CAN$250,000, in your area? Might be interesting. I'm not criticising or getting competitive, but it's interesting that what I think a lot, if not most Europeans might see as desirable, you think is ugly.
How horrible for you. Year-round good weather, affordable housing, beaches, mountains and historic cities and towns, friendly people, eating and drinking that doesn't break the bank, low taxes and cheap and very available flights back home whenever you want. Stay away, Higgins. You'd hate it!
LOL, you can have Woking on a wet Wednesday any day. And keep it on all the other days as well.:mrgreen:Give me Woking on a wet Wednesday anyday. ��
That's true. White interiors with loads of windows would act like a microwave on the occupants.Well apart from the darkness raging within not necessarily being to the taste of somebody used to Montreal (one needs to know the Andalusian summer sun to get it),
I know an excellent tiler. Job of a weekend.that bathroom raises not only the question of who tiled it but, more importantly, who was he mad at?:lol:
Oh, not arguing it, but that's a lovely house to my eyes.But, as you say, taste and all that and the futility of arguing it.
The outside really nice but the interior looks like someone vomited coloured tile.

This condo even comes furnished. Though $250,000 will buy nothing in Toronto.

That's a nice looking apartment. Small, but very nice. It's a bit lacking in the pool and garden department though.
