| Shop Around – In every part of the buying process, make sure that you shop around for everything; finding the house, finding the estate agent, seeking international mortgage advice, the local taxes, the solicitor etc. Always make sure that similar sized houses within the local market are being sold for around the same price range. Take your time and ensure you've covered every part of the buying process. |
| In-depth Research – Ensure that you fully research the area abroad which you want to buy in. Buying a property abroad is a serious commitment both in terms of your time and your finances and so it is important that you are fully aware of what you are getting yourself into. Obtain the maximum information possible about every aspect of the buying process and also all the local information which you will need including aspects such as how the local medical services and insurance work, whether there are schools in the area, how to set up a bank account etc. |
| Ask – Whether you are buying a home in the UK or abroad you need to continually question every part of the process. These questions can range from questioning yourself about your reasons for moving and how much you can afford to spend to questioning the professionals, such as mortgage advisers, local lawyers and local people. This is the only way to make sure that you make 100% informed decisions. |
