Money Buying Currency for your Overseas Property Purchase
Before buying a property overseas, you will need to
purchase currency to pay for the property. There are two
options available when purchasing and transferring
currency – you can use your bank or take our
recommendation and use the services of a specialist
currency exchange provider.
The
benefits of using a currency specialist over a bank are as
follows:
-
You
may save up to 4% on the cost of the currency by
getting better-than-bank rates – On the cost of a £100,000,
the savings could be up to £4,000.
-
You
can talk with a dedicated currency specialist rather
than bank personnel that may or may not know the
currency markets. Specialists can help you determine a
strategy on how to buy currency at the right time for
the right price.
-
Your
funds will be transferred within 1-2 days using a
specialist services whereas banks take 3-5 days.
Furthermore, unlike the banks, currency companies can
eliminate transfer charges and receiving fees imposed
by most overseas banks.
-
You
will have the ability to freeze the current currency
exchange rate (if it’s a good rate) so that you can
RESERVE money at today’s rate and pay for it at a
later date. This will give you peace of mind that your
property purchase price will not change due to
fluctuations.
-
If
you have a set budget and want to ensure that the
price of your property does not increase and/or you
would like to get the best rates when purchasing
currency, we urge you to discuss your requirements
with a currency exchange specialist.
