Knowing where to start can be far trickier. Look at the internet and thousands of agents will vie for your attention. Read the papers and you may start to get cold feet at mention of ‘land grab’ or dubious estate agents. Then there’s the fact that you are here and the properties and agents are thousands of miles away over there. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Over 1 million British people have already acted on the dream of owning a home overseas and the same number again is predicted to do so in the next five years. But if you want to join them, how do you go about it? <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">With these questions in mind, Hanson has teamed up with <strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Lighthouse</span></strong> to help those of our clients who are interested in overseas property. <a href="http://www.lighthouse-spain.com/view_user.php?refid=699" target="_blank">www.lighthouse-property.com</a> has both resale and new development properties in the most popular countries, such as <st1:country-region st="on">Spain</st1:country-region>, <st1:country-region st="on">Portugal</st1:country-region> and <st1:state st="on"><st1:place st="on">Florida</st1:place></st1:state> and is packed full of advice and information on buying property abroad.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><br /></span></strong></p><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Lighthouse</span></strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> - which is based in Bedfordshire and has English-speaking staff in its Spanish offices - works with a network of ethical estate agents.
