Is Ireland affordable on a fixed income of about 90,000 (for a couple)? 68,000 if I go alone.

We are interested in retiring to either France, Mexico, Panama or Portugal. Getting visas can be tricky for those of us who haven’t done it in the past. Do you recommend getting an immigration attorney? If so, would that be one in the U.S. or the country we’re interested in? How do we find a knowledgeable immigration attorney?

My husband and I (retired mid sixties) are interested in becoming part time residents in Portugal where my maternal ancestors are from. I speak some Portuguese and am working on improving. We are traveling there soon for three months to explore the country as a possible area in which to buy a condo. Our hope is to buy a place in the Algarve area that can be rented out during the warmest months while we are in the U.S. and spend about half the year in the condo ourselves. We have a certain amount of money to spend but it's not half a million euros, so I'm looking for a real estate manager who can help us in the 200-400,000 Euro range. It seems many I have found are very high end and we need someone willing to help the lower middle range. Any suggestions on how to find someone? Thank you!

Hi CTFANDJCF,
It's possible and you can find accounts online from people who've done the drive but because of safety concerns around certain border areas like Honduras it's not something I would ever want to do, being risk averse myself. That said the Panama-Costa Rica border is safe and busy every day, that's a drive you may someday want to do in your own car (or you can take the easy border buses or Ticabus as they're called).
Best,
Jess Ramesch, IL Panama Editor

Hi Mark, I'm Bel, the Mexico Correspondent and bringing a dog to Mexico isn't a problem. All you need is 3 things: proof of rabies vaccination, a health certificate from your vet and that your pet is microchpped. Then you're good to go.
