Another guest post written for “The Big Property List”

One of the top UK property blogs recently asked me to open their account on the overseas market place. Therefore I wrote about now being right time to be investing in the overseas property market. Read more about it here.

House Hunters International on US primetime….what a nice opportunity

Back in May 2009 I was asked to do some filming for the US TV program House Hunters

House Hunters International

International. It was a great experience being out there with some of our clients who thankfully bought a property. Really interesting to see how it all works though and how it all gets stitched together.

We have split it into three sections so that YouTube could facilitate it all.

Overseas property purchases show signs of recovery

In these last few weeks there has been a lot of positive press regarding the word “recovery”. There have been fantastic indicators in the UK including the FTSE 100 reaching 5,000 for the first time since October 2008, the UK domestic Market showing promise with increases of 5.6% on the year and predictions that houses will actually be worth more at the end of the year than at the start. There are other, more economic indicators as well; GDP figures are up on forcasts, the costs for banks borrowing from each other is now cheaper than before the credit crunch and unemployment continuing to peak and given this is a lagging indicator, this is actually good news.

What does this mean for the overseas property sector however, are we seeing such bullish news from this sector; one which has been hit hard by the credit crunch?
