Emigrating to Spain is an increasingly common occurrence for thousands of UK residents. Spain has the reputation of being a great place to emigrate to due to good weather all year round, excellent food and the relaxed lifestyle. These factors have seen emigration to Spain grow in popularity with UK residents.
Foreign Exchange for Spanish Emigration
When considering emigrating to Spain don’t forget to arrange your new currency. Fluctuating currency rates can seriously effect how much money you emigrate to Spain with.
HiFX offer the best possible exchange rates available to people emigrating - rates that are usually only available to corporate clients that buy large amounts of foreign currency.
For illustration purposes, let us assume that you are a UK resident emigrating to Spain and buying a property “off plan”. The developer will require a deposit in Euros straight away, and then further "stage payments" during the construction over the next 18 months, with a final payment upon completion.
Before emigrating to Spain, the actual cost in Sterling will be determined by the timing of your currency purchase. Naturally, if Sterling strengthens during construction, the cost will decline but if the Euro strengthens then your costs will increase - i.e. a stronger Euro means your property will be more expensive! (This will also apply to those purchasing a straight 're-sale' property where there is a gap between the offer being accepted and the completion of the sale).
Rest assured, if you are emigrating to Spain, the specialist team at HiFX can help.
