Living Overseas

The type of lifestyle offered by the host country is often the factor that wins the newcomer over. However, while the region's beaches, friendly people or tropical climate are important factors, there are additional questions to ask. Can foreigners own real estate? What is the cost of living? Will my kids be able to attend a quality bilingual school? Are foreigners permitted to work? The future expatriate should have the answers to these issues - and many more - before embarking on a permanent overseas move.While each country may have specific laws and requirements, there is basic information that is applicable during any international relocation. Over 10 million Americans live abroad full- or part-time, and many more dream about it everyday.
