He’s like an all round tradesman at the moment but he hates it and his dream is owning some kind of b&b/guesthouse/cafe on the island although he’s said he’d do anything if it meant living there |

Yeah, however you can only buy the cheaper properties if you already an island license or whatever the name for it is (so you work there, born there etc). Otherwise you have to buy in the open market which is hugely expensive and after selling our current 3-bed house we would only be able to afford to buy a flat on the island.

I guess good for him if he likes it, but the lack of anything wears thing very quickly, half the high street is empty because of the extortionate rent, there’s nowhere over here to buy men’s clothing anymore, no takeaways (like McDonald’s, KFC etc) no decent night life, a lot of online retailers don’t deliver here and during bad weather the boat that delivers food gets stuck so the shelves are empty quite often during winter I know some of those issues he wouldn’t be bothered about but yeah, that’s just a small part of why I really don’t like it here anymore

Don’t want to burst your bubble but if If it’s a nice flat be prepared to be messed around by the agent who will probably have quite a bit of interest, also I think you will struggle without proof of income from a job unless you are moving with someone who has one lined up

There’s two types of market here local and open, if you’re born in Guernsey you can live in either but if not you can only live in open and houses in open market are about twice the price of local market

The house prices really do shock me. We’ve been to look at a house in Cornwall that is 4 bed with 2/3 guest houses on the grounds that costs £430k which I’ve told him is just a much better deal in an area that is just as nice, but I think he’s secretly holding out hope for Guernsey

He’s not local, no. He had to get a license to marry there when he was planning the wedding, but I think it’s a different kind of license? He had to be there for 2/3 weeks whilst it was all getting processed. Whilst he was there a few of the locals he became close with said they would definitely be up for helping him organise and establish his plan to gain citizenship but he hasn’t really spoken to them since so we aren’t too sure what they can and can’t do. |

There’s also no NHS here so you either need health insurance or it’s £50 a time for a Dr’s appointment

Smiffero, rental agents can be right little hitlers about renting to people with proven incomes, is your profession one you could easily get a new position in once you move? |

There’s no Covid here and hasn’t been for about 3 months now, people who come into the island have to isolate for two weeks and then they’re tested. But because there’s only one flight a day now there’s a max of 80 people coming into the island at any one time, so the states pay for testing. Obviously if people had to pay for it themselves I imagine they’d be much more reluctant to do so.
