Our story
The idea for Your Overseas Home came from personal experience. One of our founders watched their family’s dream of owning a home in Spain fall apart due to poor advice and lack of clear guidance. That experience shaped our mission: to ensure no one else goes through the same stress.
Since 2007, we have supported thousands of buyers just like you. Whether you want a holiday home in Portugal, a retirement villa in Spain, or a new lifestyle in France or Italy, we give you the guidance and expert support to make it happen.
Your dream of owning an overseas home is closer than you think. Whether you are looking to invest, retire, or start a new life abroad, we are here to guide you from the very first idea to the moment you unlock your new front door.
