SUMMARY:The 2026 Your Overseas Home cost of living index 
DESCRIPTION:This event has now passed\, but you can explore our upcoming events here\n\n\n\nThe cost of living crisis is back in the news. What better time to release the brand new Your Overseas Home Cost of Living Index for 2026? It answers:  \n\n\n\n\nWhere is the cheapest place to live from the Your Overseas Home countries? \n\n\n\n\n\nWill your pension go further in Spain or France?  \n\n\n\n\n\nIs your salary more likely to last to the end of the month in Dubai or Portugal? \n\n\n\n\n\nWill your standard of living be better in the USA\, Canada\, Australia or New Zealand \n\n\n\n\nThe 2026 Your Overseas Home Cost of Living Index is different. It focuses on expenses you’ll face when setting up home and living overseas. Everything from decorating your house to fitting it out\, to getting the groceries in to eating out.

SUMMARY:Will the pound cost you thousands? What overseas buyers need to know
DESCRIPTION:Oil\, war and domestic politics – where will exchange rates be by the time you come to buy?   \n\n\n\nThe threats are mounting if you’re buying property overseas this year or living in Europe but relying on an income from the UK.  \n\n\n\nIn recent crises the pound has lost 10-15% of its value – could that happen again?  \n\n\n\nEnergy prices are shooting up\, stock markets falling and interest rate cuts cancelled. It’s already hitting exchange rates but worse is likely to come.  \n\n\n\nAmidst all this\, bookies will only give you 4/9 on Keir Starmer surviving 2026 as prime minister\, with the crunch point the May elections just weeks away. (If Liz Truss taught us anything\, it’s to beware the impact of new leaders.)  \n\n\n\n\nWhat does that all mean for sterling?  \n\n\n\n\n\nHow will it affect the price you pay for a property priced in euros \n\n\n\n\n\nShould you be worried about your pension? \n\n\n\n\nThat’s what we will be answering in this special webinar\, as Christopher Nye from Your Overseas Home is joined by Jonathan Cook from Smart Currency Exchange.  \n\n\n\nAs lead researcher and writer of Smart Currency’s Quarterly Forecast\, Jon has the latest authoritative predictions for the pound\, euro and US dollar.  \n\n\n\nMore importantly\, what can you do about it? Because the real question we pose in this webinar is who you want in control of the price you pay overseas – you and the seller? Or President Trump\, the Iranian regime and Labour MPs?
