Living in one country, paying bills in another

09.24.2013 by Girl on Fire // 1 Comment

Owning and running a property in another country is not always easy.

Of course, you have to make sure that if you buy an investment property in another country that you have local contacts who will take care of the property in your absence. This may just be key-holding on your behalf, or meeting and greeting holiday makers who rent your property, and taking care of maintenance issues and cleaning between the rental periods.

But beyond the physical care of the place, there are always bills to pay and if you live and work in a different currency for the most part, you’ll have to have a reliable and efficient way of changing money into another currency whenever you need to pay regular and unexpected bills. It’s a hassle going down to the bank to arrange a money transfer whenever you need to pay someone, so it’s far better if you can set up an account with an online currency exchange service like HiFX.

By doing so, you’ll be able to move money from one currency to another at the click of a button, and you’ll also be able to keep checking in to see what rate you can get. You may have regular bills that you want to set up to be paid automatically, or you might prefer to move a tranche of money when the exchange rate is in your favour. Whatever way you want to move your money, it’s quick and easy to arrange with an online currency exchange account. You can get an instant time quote at any time as you don’t have to wait for the service opening hours and if you don’t like the rate you’re offered, you can always set an exchange rate target and receive an email alert when that target is reached.

Managing your own international money transfers online is just one way you can make owning a property in another country easier, and who’s not going to want that?

Wordless Wednesday

Yesterday was a special day at Sharkarosa…the Ranch was closed to normal visitors and opened for Homeschoolers only.  I didn’t find out until yesterday morning that it was going on, so we hustled over there.  The place was JAM PACKED!   This is Texas after all, I think there are as many homeschool families as […]
