How This Site Works

Homes and Villas Abroad offers a completely different approach to buying overseas property. Our website contains thousands of homes to suit all tastes and budgets – from a chalet in the Alps to a villa overlooking the sea, and from a renovated 19th century farmhouse to a luxury three-bedroom town centre apartment.

Unlike other websites, however, we don't just have properties from one or two big-name estate agencies in large cities. Thanks to our extensive network of contacts, you will find properties from hundreds of estate agencies of all sizes and in a wide variety of locations.

So even if you've got your heart set on an isolated cottage in the middle of nowhere, you'll find it here first. And don’t worry if it’s being sold by a provincial estate agency where no-one speaks English – our commitment to customer care means your query will automatically be routed to a member of the Homes and Villas Abroad team in the UK who will handle everything for you.

You will also find advertised property from construction companies, real estate developers and even private vendors and the list is updated daily. Just click on whichever properties you are interested in, leave your details and an estate agent or a member of our team will be in touch shortly.

Again, unlike other property websites, our role at Homes and Villas Abroad does not end once we have put you in touch with an estate agency.

Should you encounter any difficulty in your dealings with them, simply contact us and our UK-based head office team as well as our agents in the overseas country concerned will be glad to try to resolve the issue.

However, buying a home abroad can be a complex and unfamiliar process and you should not sign documents without proper legal advice. For greater peace of mind, therefore, we can recommend the legal assistance service provided by one of our trusted partner organisations in which a specialist, experienced overseas property lawyer will take care of the entire procedure for you.

This includes various safeguards such as drafting sales contracts, translating them into English and carrying out essential legal and financial checks on the state of the property.
