Overseas Property - Buying Property Overseas
Thousands of Brits now own property abroad. The boom in overseas property ownership is growing, and is set for continued expansion as more and more people take advantage of positive exchange rates, excellent interest rates on mortgages, and the lower prices of property abroad.
For some, buying abroad is a necessity as opposed to a luxury. Many people have ‘missed the boat’ when it comes to the Britain property market and are looking to set foot on the property ladder by buying overseas property. With the present sky high prices for homes in the UK, others are able to use the equity from their current residence for buying a second home abroad.
With the advent of satellite phones, broadband connections and internet cafes, many people are now able to choose whereabouts in the world they live. Not satisfied with the traditional summer holiday abroad, people are now buying property overseas from which they can continue working in the same way they did back home, and taking advantage of the lower costs of living, or as a second home and splitting their time between a home abroad and one in their home country. With more airports materializing both in the UK and all around the world, flights getting cheaper, and the British having more disposable income, the overseas property market is opening up to us all.
Although Spain is still the favourite destination for Brits buying abroad, France, the USA, Portugal, Australia and New Zealand are also popular. Cyprus, Turkey, Dubai and Bulgaria – although less established, are also becoming fashionable destinations to own a holiday home.
Wherever you decide to go, buying investment property overseas is not something you should go into lightly. Specialist advice is needed for each country, which will have different rules, regulations and guidelines.
We work together with experienced professionals who are experts in property purchases in each individual location. Many offer subsidised inspection trips to enable you to get a feel for the locality of your choice, and all will offer friendly, helpful and specialist advice on buying and owning property, obtaining mortgages, and legal advice in their home countries.
