You could lose up to 5% of your money when buying or selling overseas property
Deciding how to transfer money internationally to pay for the property can be just as important as the decision on which property to buy or sell. Using a UK FCA Regulated Authorised Payment Institution to transfer money abroad rather than a bank could save you thousands of pounds (or euros or dollars) when purchasing or selling overseas property. We work with currency specialists who can offer you significant savings through better exchange rates and by charging you no bank fees.
The six benefits of using BuySell for large money transfers that you will not find anywhere else
- You have the option to lock-in an exchange rate for up to two years – great for overseas property purchases.
- You get access to our experienced currency Dealers to help you make informed foreign exchange decisions.
- You get the most competitive exchange rates with a Best Exchange Rate Guarantee.
- You get access to your personalised online account, so you can review and organise your transactions.
- Regular market news and rate alerts to keep you in the loop.
- Authorised FCA E-Money Institution. Client monies are kept in segregated accounts for your protection.
