Youryearinspain Reviews 10

Working with Christine was the key to realizing our family dream of living in Spain. When moving to another country, there are so many details related to school, visas, and housing that are difficult to understand because of the language barrier and regional norms. Thankfully, Christine's expertise allowed us to focus more on getting to know our new home, and less on logistics and paperwork.

As others have said, Christine's help was invaluable. Besides handling the paperwork for our residency, finding a physician, and even suggesting cultural events, Christine helped us find an apartment, negotiated the lease (firmly but graciously) on our behalf, set up appointments, and even got us out of a tricky and mildly embarrassing banking situation. She is patient, warm, efficient, effective, and the voice of reason and calm.

Christine has been an incredible support to us before, during and after our relocation to Granada. Her knowledge and expertise have proven invaluable as we navigated deciding on a school for our children, negotiating a lease on our rental, obtaining our resident permit and even buying our car! She has always been so patient and kind and we appreciate her optimism and outlook. We could not have made this big life changing move without her (or at least it would not have gone nearly so smooth).

Christine found a fantastic apartment for us in Granada, and gave a lot of other advice along the way about the city, visa issues, and health insurance. She's done the same for other ex-pats I know. She is knowledgeable, efficient, and easy to work with. Her fees are very reasonable, too.

Christine was a HUGE help to our family as we transitioned to Spain this fall, assisting us with school placement for our daughter, our apartment lease, our NIE application, and numerous other details like finding after school activities, helping with medical appointments, even getting us the right SIM cards for our phones. YourYearInSpain’s services are very reasonably priced, too — I wish we had discovered them earlier so we could have tapped Christine’s expertise when we were applying for our visas (instead of hiring the expensive immigration lawyer we used). She is knowledgeable, responsive, and a pleasure to work with….thank you Christine!

Contacting Christine turned out to be a great decision as we began the process of moving to Spain. She is highly knowledgeable and trustworthy, and has been essential for navigating the quirks and intricacies of moving to Granada as well as getting established after arriving.
We highly recommend youryearinspain.com!

My experience working with Christine was amazing! Excellent work and very attentive to all details. I highly recommend this relocation company.

We are very happy with all the help that we got from Christine and Bianca to make our very own year in Spain become a reality. They helped us with finding schools for our girls and registering them. Also, with finding the perfect house, which we have dwelt in happily during our year here. Invaluable help and lots of good advice. I recommend them 100%.

Thank you, Christine Giraud, for helping me settle into Granada. Christine helped me navigate banking, school enrolments, The NIE office and so much more. It would have been a nightmare without her.
