Brits seek stability before retiring to the sun

Brits seek stability before retiring to the sun

A new survey suggests that while many UK citizens would love a place in the sun during their retirement, extenuating factors tend to throw a spanner in the works.

Some 75 per cent of those questioned by property consultants, A Quick Sale, admitted that they would love a foreign property, yet a fifth of respondents said that they would only considering moving abroad when they had retired.

Of the 100 expatriates surveyed, 27 per cent confirmed that the biggest concern when considering a move abroad was the difficulty of selling one's UK home.

Richard Watters, managing director of A Quick Sale, commented on the results:

"We are seeing more and more UK homeowners keen to make the move abroad, but it seems selling their property here first, is the one thing preventing their dream from becoming a reality."

More and more Brits are considering a move abroad - some 800,000 British people now own a foreign property, a number set to increase as the emerging eastern European economies attract increasing interest.
