Why This Event Exists
Whether you’re looking to buy a vacation home, relocate full-time, retire in the sun, or explore investment opportunities, Spain is one of the most exciting options out there for Americans. But getting started can feel overwhelming: visas, property laws, taxes, banking, choosing the right region, and not making a costly mistake.
This free virtual event is built to answer one question:
“How do i make my Spain plans happen in a safe, realistic way?”
In one online day, you’ll hear from the Your Overseas Home team and many industry experts covering property, legal, and financial essentials, plus two exclusive sessions with Christopher Hughey, an American who made the move himself and now successfully helps others do the same.
Featured Speaker: a US‑born Spain relocation expert
Christopher Hughey is the Founder and Managing Director of Americans Moving to Spain. He’s American-born, a dad, and has lived in multiple European countries before choosing Seville, Spain as home with his two school-age kids.
Through Americans Moving to Spain, Christopher guides US citizens through the real-world process: choosing the right visa route, getting paperwork in order, understanding timelines, and figuring out where and how to live once you land.
Christopher is joining the event as a featured speaker for two Spain-focused sessions. It’s your chance to tap into his experience live, ask questions, and avoid the rookie mistakes that cost time and money.
