BODY OF MEMO

Please make this information available to all clients interested in purchasing property
abroad.

idea if you are planning to buy abroad, but only once you have you’re your
research on the area in advance, checked your ability to raise finance and
settled on the type of property in which you are interested. It would also be
a good idea to speak to others who have purchased in the area.

B. Find independent legal and financial representation as soon as is practical .

Choose a qualified representative with reasonable English. If possible, get a
reference from someone who has used them in the past.

your finances in advance and always leave a little to spare.
