Hi Tony I'm a newbie and recently bought on D. Consum supermarket is on B sector so that would be the nearest. I thought it was very well stocked and has fresh meat counters and fruit and veg all looked fresh. I don't know about the cheapest. There is a Lidl in the port. There is a small shop in the triangle if you are craving certain items from the UK such as Heinz baked beans etc. I got hubby tins of strongbow from there so he was happy and they were less than the price of what we pay here from our local shop.

Hi Tony depends on the size of the property. Our vendors paid ibi for our 2 bed Rebecca bungalow and was €180 for the year I believe. Electric would depend on consumption and if you have heaters and air con etc. Gas bottle refills are cheap. Around €15 ish. Bank charges can be high. Obvo there are lawyers fees. Our house and contents insurance was about €120

Add 12% on top of your agreed price ..to cover legal /purchase tax/land registration and so on...you will need a car whatever sector you buy on ...you will be shocked at the price of second hand cars they tend to be around 3 times more than the UK with extremely high mile's... I don't know why this is as new cars like for like are approximately the same price as the UK.
