Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can a non-resident buy property overseas?
In most of the countries we feature, such as Spain, France, Portugal, and the USA, foreigners can buy property with few to no restrictions. Some countries may have specific rules regarding certain types of land or property (e.g., agricultural land), so it’s always crucial to work with a local lawyer.
What are the hidden costs of buying property abroad?
Beyond the property price, you should budget for additional costs which vary by country. These typically include property transfer tax, notary fees, legal fees, and agent commissions. As a general rule, budgeting an extra 8-15% of the purchase price is a safe estimate.
How do I finance an overseas property purchase?
There are several options for financing. You can seek a mortgage from a bank in the country of purchase, though this can be more complex for non-residents. Alternatively, you could remortgage your existing home to release equity for a cash purchase, or use a combination of savings and a specialist international mortgage broker.
Why is using a currency specialist important?
Exchange rates fluctuate constantly. A small shift can mean a difference of thousands of pounds on a property transaction. A currency specialist can help you secure a favourable exchange rate, often better than high-street banks, and use tools like a ‘forward contract’ to lock in a rate for a future transfer, protecting you from market volatility.
