A lot of people fancy moving overseas or may even have to do so for work or personal reasons. If you are among this number then it is very important that you make sure to do lots of research and to make the time to think through all of the implications that such a major move would bring, especially when it comes to property.
You might want to consider renting a property in your new country, at least for the first few months. Renting would give you the chance to work out whether or not the move was a successful one without having made any permanent commitments. This would also provide you with the opportunity to move around and try out a number of different locations before finding the one that is best suited to you.
Another good tip is to hold back from renting out your property back in the United States while this is taking place. This way, if you decide that the move has not worked and you wish to come home again, you can do so and have not burned your bridges. It will also mean that you could come back home more quickly, as you will not have to wait to sell your new home.
If at all possible, you should make numerous visits to the new country before any permanent relocation. It is vital to see your new locale in the different seasons, as winter in a country can be extremely different to what it is like in the summertime.
