01 Why it matters

One adviser, one accountable chain.

Buying across borders means assembling a team you cannot easily assess: a lawyer whose reputation you cannot verify, a surveyor whose report you cannot read, a bank whose process you have never used. Most difficult transactions go wrong here, not at the negotiation.
We keep a standing network in each market and coordinate it around you. You retain each professional directly; we hold the timetable, chase the documents and tell you plainly when something does not add up.

Disciplines

Six functions, in every market.

Legal & notarial

Independent lawyers and notaries instructed by you, not by a seller or developer. Title, planning, permits and contract structure are examined before money moves.

Tax & fiscal

Local accountants and cross-border tax counsel who model the position in both jurisdictions — acquisition, holding, income and eventual exit.

Technical & survey

Surveyors, civil engineers and architects for structural review, restoration costings and permitting timetables on protected or rural stock.

Banking & currency

Account opening, mortgage introductions where available, and regulated currency specialists for staged transfers rather than single spot conversions.

Immigration & residency

Specialists handling residence applications, renewals and family inclusion, kept deliberately separate from the property transaction.

Management & aftercare

Managing agents, letting operators, builders and household staff — the layer that determines whether ownership is pleasant or exhausting.

The introduction is the easy part. What protects a client is the quality of the people who check it.

How we work

Standards

Ask who would act for you.

Tell us the market and the type of transaction, and we will set out exactly which professionals would be involved and what each of them costs.
