Hi - there are certainly plenty of foreign residents in that area, so it can't be too hard.

You'll need a resident's visa (type/criteria depends on what you're planning to do). You need to contact your nearest Spanish Consulate for that.

There are many websites selling property with prices/photos/advice etc. Do a search with, e.g., "buying a home in Spain"

Here's a book on the topic that's available through Amazon.

hope that helps!
