Lighthouse recommends that our clients take a three-day/four-night inspection trip to view properties in Florida.
For a cost of £199 per person, we will organise flights, transfers to and from the airport in Florida and accommodation in a rental property similar to the type you are interested in buying. A food and drink welcome pack will be waiting for you upon your arrival. During your inspection trip you will see as many resale and off-plan properties as possible and you will have an opportunity to return to see any properties you were particularly interested in. Your evenings are free and there is often a day spare to spend as you wish, visiting one of the many theme parks or other attractions. Most people fall in love with a property the first time they are on an inspection trip and make a decision to buy while there. We will help you to open a bank account and do the first part of the administration required to buy the property. There will be a financial advisor available during your visit if you wish to discuss financing the purchase of the property with a mortgage. Alternatively, if you are already planning a holiday in Florida, we can organise the viewing of properties during your stay. This is not normally done when viewing properties in Europe but is quite common in the US, given the distances involved in getting there. You will, however, need to be prepared to spend a serious proportion of your holiday making the property visits and you would need to make your own flight and accommodation arrangements. As with anywhere you choose to buy, do as much research as possible before you go so that your Lighthouse agent has a clear idea of what kind of property you are after and can handpick a few of the best for you to see.
