"The Overseas Buying Guide is an excellent document - clear, concise, easy to read, and very useful. I particularly liked the property detail sheets - very useful when snagging etc."
Many thanks.
"Dear Kim, Thanks to your top tips we asked our developer if he had an insurance bond and to our surprise he did not...We quickly pulled out of the deal and found a developer that would be able to return our money if they went bust.

Thanks for the guide! Sally &Tom R

Healthcare abroad
21st September 2011 - 08:46A key consideration when you move abroad is knowing you have access to healthcare, whether its state-funded, private or a combination of both.
