Book Description
Produced in conjuction with the Sunday Times, Cadogan launches an innovative new series that gives all the practical information necessary to buy a home overseas. Whether youre looking for a castle or an apartment, a holiday home or a place to relocate to for good, the guides offer all the latest information on buying property. They cover all the regions that are popular with home-buyers and provide in-depth information on what to expect from each area: its climate, economy, facilities and even levels of English speaking among the local population. Buying a Property gives advice on every step of the moving process, from the first stages of organising visas and dealing with immigration and customs, to negotiating with estate agents, having surveys done and drawing up contracts, as well as restoring your property and finding reputable rental agencies. To accompany the practical advice, the guides feature anecdotes and case studies that give insights into the realities of settling in to a new environment and getting used to a different culture and pace of life.
