For recreation, retirement or investment, buying property abroad has never been more popular, and over a million Britons now have homes in another country. Unfortunately, buying abroad is fraught with difficulties. Different cultures, languages, currencies and laws make expert advice essential.

Buying Property Abroad takes an in-depth look at France, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Florida, as well as considering emerging markets in the Mediterranean, the Balkan States and Eastern Europe. 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
• considers the true cost of holiday homes - including maintenance charges, utility bills and management fees
• looks at the financial and legal implications of long-term residency, with particular reference to retirement, taxation and health care.

Buying Property Abroad can help you realise the dream of owning somewhere in the sun, while making sure it doesn't turn into a nightmare.
