The premium Internet-only consumer research and advice site. trial.which.co.uk Reviews Synopsis For recreation, retirement, or investment buying property abroad has never been more popular. Over a million British owners now have homes in another country. Unfortunately, buying abroad is fraught with difficulties. Different cultures, languages, currencies and laws make expert advice essential. The Which? Guide to Buying Property Abroad takes an in-depth look at France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Florida and Greece. The book outlines the sort of property you are likely to encounter, looks at local taxes and how much you'll have to pay, examines local law and how this relates to matters such as inheritance, insurance, liability and land searches, and considers the true cost of holiday homes - assessing estate agents, building societies, euro-mortgages, lawyers, local officials, maintenance charges, utility bills, management fees and the commission charged by letting agencies. Finally, the book looks at the financial and legal implications of long-term residency, with particular reference to retirement, taxation, inheritance and health-care. Customer Reviews Avg. Customer Review: Write an online review and share your thoughts with other shoppers! 20 of 20 people found the following review helpful: The best of the bunch , August 25, 2004 Reviewer: James Parker from Brighton I've been thinking of buying a place abroad as a holiday home and for rental income but wasn't tied to the idea of a particular country. Not knowing anyone who'd done it, I thought I should read up before going any further and had a look in a couple of bookshops. As far as I can see most of the books on buying abroad are either really superficial and normally linked to one of the TV shows, or focus just on one country - which is no good if you're not sure where to buy. This one gives you the best of both worlds - it gives plenty of detail but covers most of the countries you're likely to want to buy in as well. I've now found a lawyer to advise me, and am on my way out to Italy to have a look at places in September Was this review helpful to you? 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful: A useful guide , August 17, 2004 Reviewer: prunella_mortimer_harvey from Manchester I had always wanted to buy a property abroad and a couple of months ago I embarked on a trip to France with the intention of finding a cottage in the countryside (Dordogne). Before going I bought this book- and it proved to be an excellent companion with plenty of useful information - epecially about taxation and banking/finances. I would thoroughly recommend it to everybody Was this review helpful to you? 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful: Buying property abroad- an excellent guide , August 5, 2004 Reviewer: lorenza_ponzoni from Manchester, Manchester United Kingdom The book is an informative practical guide to buying property abroad..it is easy to read,well written and clearly explained. It is packed with essential information- and it even contains details that you would not think you needed until you got there! I would recommend it to anybody who is considering buying property In Europe .... do not attempt anything before you read this book!! Was this review helpful to you? 14 of 15 people found the following review helpful: A MUST HAVE , March 25, 2004 Reviewer: A reader from United Kingdom This book is a very comprehensive guide to buying a house abroad. If you are interesting in this subject you would do much better to buy this than the country specific guides because here you get detailed stuff about all the different country. the overall message of the book is that you can make a success of buying somewhere to live in, use for holidays or rent out but it takes you through all the possible pitfall, and is very readable.

The A-Z of buying a property Abroad There are many things to be considered and planned for before you can buy your dream home abroad. Whether you are buying a retirement home an investment property or a much deserved holiday home in the sun. Many people are lucky enough to have capital to release for buying a property abroad, others finance the project with some form of loan or mortgage. Now is a good time to buy property in Spain as European interest rates are low and there is a wide selection of property options available, from developed plots, farmhouses and village locations, through to villas, townhouses and new apartment developments. However and wherever you purchase your property there are some underlying principles to help you make the right decision. We have outlined some of them below and we have also listed some country specific advice for buying a property in Spain, buying property in Florida and buying property in France. Many other countries are becoming more popular and we see people buying properties in Estonia, purchasing properties in Bulgaria and buying properties in Italy. Location, location, location. This well worn maxim is as important when buying a property abroad as it is when buying at home. Research, research, research should also be a watchword. It is easy to get carried away with yourselves on your annual holiday. You're enjoying the resort so much you want to buy into it. Before making a life changing decision consider all your options and make a plan of action. Take a Holiday A holiday in the area under consideration will tell you a lot about the area where you want to buy a property. Be careful not to view it all with rose tinted glasses and try and picture the area on a quiet day off season. Are the facilities that you require on hand ? Do the shops suit your needs? These and many other questions will be answered later. A good way of getting an inside line is to ask those that have done it before. Many popular areas have a large ex-pat community to ask about the area. Estate Agents When buying a property abroad the advice of an estate agent may prove to be invaluable. Find an established company that will offer advice and not a hard sell. The whole process of buying a property abroad can be burdened with rules and regulations Make sure you have a good lawyer with an excellent command of English . For instance did you know that if you're buying in Spain you'll need to make out a will in Spanish before buying, or that you can inherit debts from a previous vendor?
