  2. Place to stay. Whether its rental or purchasing an entire home, this should be the first on your checklist. For rentals, the best way to get a place is in platforms like idealista, spotahome, or look for the Facebook group of flat rental page of the specific place you want. As for purchasing an entire home, you will need to contact real estate companies, they
    are called “inmobiliarias” where you its advisable to look for an agent that speaks Spanish and your language.

  4. Census. When you arrive in Spain, this is one of the things you must do. This is locally called “empadronamiento.” This is to justify that you are a resident of that specific place and you will need this paper for many things, one of them is for getting a Spanish bank account.
