The Association of International Property Professionals (AIPP) has released the 5th edition of its annual guide, Buying Overseas Property Safely.
How to Buy Overseas Property Safely is a free publication aimed solely at helping consumers protect themselves through the purchase process.
It alerts them to potential pitfalls and highlights key considerations when buying property internationally.
As a not-for-profit organisation, AIPP offers impartial advice to buyers of international real estate and their annual publication is full of useful guidance, including the important do’s and don’ts when buying a property overseas.
The guide covers various topics including inspection trips, arranging finance, choosing what and where to buy, and the importance of independent legal advice.
Good, independent advice is much needed in this marketplace, and we produce this publication to help buyers of international property navigate through the process.
An important part of our work is raising consumer awareness of AIPP, as well as providing buyers with information and guidance as they embark on an overseas property purchase.
