If you are buying property overseas, whether as an investment, a holiday home or as part of a permanent relocation plan, you will probably have to pay for it using foreign currency.The maximum amount of foreign currency possibleWhen purchasing property overseas, you will probably need to pay estate agent and legal fees. So, it’s important that you get the maximum amount of foreign currency possible. You will want to protect your money against possible adverse exchange rate movements, which could mean that your home currency will buy less foreign currency.
Choose Foreign Currency Direct (FCD) because:
When purchasing a property overseas you will need to transfer money. Whilst the natural inclination is to go to your local High Street bank to transfer funds abroad, this is usually a fairly expensive way of doing it. Exchange rates and commissions provided by high street banks are significantly less favourable than those typically offered by specialist foreign exchange brokers.
We therefore recommend the services of Foreign Currency Direct. Transactions arranged through FCD are always at the most competitive rates, and the service is fast and efficient. An estimate of the typical savings using FCD over high street bank transactions are in the region of 1 to 2%, or £1,000 to £2,000 saved for every £100,000 transferred.
