Many Britons nowadays seek a foothold abroad, most wanting a more dependable sunshine record than they get in the UK. The investment in property is a way of cashing in on inflation, but even so, the prudent buyer will need to consider the step carefully in advance. Timeshares too have increased the army of seasonal migrants. Timeshare arrangements should not be regarded as an investment to be realized in the future, but as temporary holiday homes providing years of enjoyment. In this fully revised edition, the author looks at the diverse range of property opportunities on offer in over 40 countries. He offers advice on vital but easily overlooked areas such as insurance, health and finance as well as on important legal and political matters. "Ten commandments" of property purchase highlight the pros and cons of buying a house overseas and raise the questions that need to be asked.
