Overseas property

To buy property abroad, talk to people who know what’s there

To many, a property abroad is the fulfilment of a dream. And in today’s climate, foreign holiday residences and buy-to-lets do seem more stable (and enjoyable!) an investment than equities or British homes.

But it’s easy to imagine the snags. Logically, the further an investment is from home the greater the scope for expensive errors. We believe that overseas purchases deserve the same professionalism and immediacy as those in the UK: so every Petermans office now employs overseas professionals linked to established agents, developers and lawyers in Europe.

With properties in Cyprus, Valencia, Lanzarote, Alicante, Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Majorca and Florida, our international portfolio is growing fast. Petermans are happy to look for property in any country on your behalf.

After seeing what’s on offer, we recommend you browse the question and answer page that describes many of the processes involved in buying abroad. Remember, too, that our international legal partners are there to help you from deposit to completion.
