    I'll offer similar advice as I did to Alan researching Panama. Start start by looking on AirBnB, VRBO, etc. Also look at local realtor websites—they often have rentals. Look by location...in other words, Google “rentals Edinbrough.” Another good resource is Facebook. But do a good amount of research on taking pets. At one time, the UK had a quarantine requirement. Not sure if that is still in effect, but you will want to find out.

    Since the AirBNB model has been so downgraded in Spain, what are the best options for finding a short-term apartment rental (1 to 3 months) to do a test run to see if it might work as a retirement home. what are some options that won't break the bank? I'm thinking of Valencia, Asturias, and Andalucia as options.
    Thanks!

    I'm currently in Mexico for close to five months, and at first found my apartment via a property manager, now I pay the owner directly. I'd like to go to Costa Rica, Italy, and Spain for a few months too, and need to know how and where to find the short term rentals and I realize it depends on the city and province/state in that country.

    I am looking for the best place to find long term rentals in the Coco, Costa Rica area. Most of the sites have long and short term rentals mixed together and it is difficult to tell what properties are available for 12 months or longer leases. Is there a source that is exclusive for long term rent/lease?

    Currently on a scouting trip in France. Realtor said, since we are retired, we will probably need guarantee insurance so the renter will approve us. Then an expat told me about a company called Garantme that helped her. What other obstacles might we encounter

    When doing slow traveling, what are economical ways (short of a shared dorm in a hostel) of finding lodging for short-term stays (1 to 5 days) in Southern Europe?
    Thanks!

    Hello Hemant, not sure what "milder climate" means to you or what kind of specifics you are after (beach, mountains, city, small town) but I'd point you to Panama, Portugal, or southern Spain.

    This is completely useless. I thought we were going to hear her talk to us. I concur with the comments about doing a Teams meeting with chat - never will find what I need this way. If there was no intention to have an actual call - no need to set a time. Very disappointing.

    Hi Suzan, love this opportunity to ask questions. I have several LOL! Hopefully they will also help others.....

    IL has recommended asking for a discount on all rentals but when I ask on those hosted through Air BNB they always say they can’t change the price listed there. Suggestions?

    Like others, I expected a live conversation using Zoom or similar online communication app. Was my expectation wrong? If not, does someone have a link?

    I am planning to spend 3 months in France, Italy and Croatia to research living arrangement for a permanent move in a year or two. I would like to meet other IL members for coffee and I appreciate any IL connected housing.
