I am planning to build a villa in Spain and I am trying to get my head around how much it will cost. Everyone I ask seems to give me a different figure from as little as 500 euros per square metre to around 2000 euros per square metre and more. Obviously it depends not only on where but also on whats included. The problem I have is that the specifications I recieve are too technical for me to really be able to understand what you get for what money.

Can anyone please give me an idea of how much I need to budget for per square metre for a 200 square metre villa excluding site aquisition and ground preparation costs but inlcuding everything else - keys in hand?

Can anyone recommend a switched on team who can do this for me?

Thanks in advance.

could it be because the Costa del Sol is in Spain? Just a thought.

Maria,

I'd be so grateful for a reply. Even the asesor who says I can reclaim says that you have to be registered as an autonomo if you are the sole administrator of the company. She is pretty firm on this.

Are there any circumstances where the sole administrator doesnt have to be autonomo for example where they are not shareholders and they are are not earning from the company? Your reply has lead me to be believe thatb there might be.

The reason she thinks I can darme de baja como autonomo and reclaim autonomo payments for 2008 is that I am the administrator or another company which is dormant and completely inactive. It sounds crazy because I'm the administrator of another company, the one I mentioned where the shareholder is an english company. I am trying to clarify this with her.

 

Any help from anyone would be gratefully recieved

Hi Maria,

Thanks for thje reply. Its the answer I want to hear.

Its interesting because it directly contradicts the advice I am getting from an, if youi'll forgive me "low-level", asesor. The argument seems to be that the responsibities of the administrator are so serious that it is inconceivable that they should not be autonomo.

So I take it theres a form to fill in and thats it. Correct?

Is there anything else I need to think about such as health care for my family?

There is another issue you may be able to help with which is this. Can my partner in the UK who is not resident in Spain take over as the administrator of the company?

Thank you so much for your help.

I wonder if anyone can help me with this one. I am getting conflicting advice from two asesores.

I am the administrator of a Spanish S.L. I am not a shareholder. The sole shareholder is a UK company and I am a shareholder and director of that company. I am not paid by either company. I am also autonomo. I cant afford the autonomo payments and havent paid any this year. One asesor says that as I am not a shareholder and not being paid then I can darme de baja como autonomo. In fact she says I can reclaim the autonomo payments for 2008. Another asesor says emphatically that it is a requirement that all administrators are autonomo.

Does anyone know the answer?
