You've just returned from a romantic week in Paris and already you are thinking of when you might be able to return to your newfound paradise. The idea of purchasing a condo in a nook of this European city only grows more tempting as you spend more time back in the states-"the real world." Buying property abroad can be an exiting venture, however, before you let your emotions control your purse, consider a few things.

  1. Why Buy? People make real estate purchases for primarily two reasons, but most often, a combination of the two. People buy for investment/resale value (financial consideration), and people make purchases for enjoyment/value of living (emotional consideration). Will you be renting your place out full-time? Part-time? Will you want to keep it empty for spur of the moment visits? Decide what your motivation for a purchase is-strictly to make money on an investment or to give added value to the quality/enjoyment you will derive out of living or visiting the property? Likely the answer will be both, but examine which motivation is stronger. This will help you in your search for the perfect piece of property.

  2. Investment: Location. If you are looking to buy property abroad from strictly an investment standpoint, you must consider the location of the property. If it is in an area of a city, town, or rural setting that is not good for resale (poor economic factors, high crime rate, etc.), it might not be a good investment-even if you personally would not mind living there. If, on the other hand, you find a property that might be missing some of the elements you want but is in a great location, it is a good idea to keep it in the running. You must always consider what potential buyers will want when deciding on a property. Remember, you can change a property's aesthetics, but you will never change the location of a property.
