Estate in Antibes & Juan les Pins ~ Antibes Realtor Jean-Mark
Phillipe compares people who tell him they are looking for property somewhere
in France between Nice and St. Tropez to those who say they want to live
in California somewhere between San Francisco and San Diego. While it sounds
reasonable enough, many people think of the Cote D’Azure as a single swath
of land that hugs the Mediterranean Sea. In reality, each town and village
on the Riviera is distinctly different and offers a different lifestyle.

| Unique Real Estate
- Island For Sale - The Island Of No Change - Unique
Real Estate - Island For Sale - The Island Of No Change ~ Honesty
prevailed over emotion, and I conceded with great sadness that I would
have to sell. There just was not enough potential pasture area for raising
dairy cows, or to fulfill my desire to cultivate hundreds of exotic fruit
trees. Most of the island is quite steep and covered with mature giant
hardwoods such as Amoghis, Natuk, and Nara. Altogether I found maybe twenty
acres that could be put to agricultural use and I needed much more than
that. By Sophia Bain |

| Buying Real Estate
in Italy ~ A legal Overview - Buying
Real Estate in Italy ~ A legal Overview ~ Italy
is well known for its red tape and this of course can include property
transactions. However it does not mean that the system is worse than others
and to some extent it could be considered safer. Generally, there are three
steps involved in buying a property: proposal of purchase, preliminary
purchase and final purchase. There are certain legal precautions
that can be followed throughout each stage to protect your interests and
ensure your purchase goes successfully. By Tracey Meagher |

Escape to Paradise
~ Real Estate in the Philippines - Escape
to Paradise ~ Real Estate in the Philippines ~ South
of Taiwan, West of Vietnam and North of Indonesia lies over 7,000 islands
covering about 110,000 sq. miles. This is the Philippines. This is
an area just larger than the State of Nevada and just smaller than Denmark.
With a population approaching 80 million, these islands are some of the
most densely populated areas in S.E. Asia. One exception is the Island
of Palawan. By Graham Webb |

Wilt in Euro Drought - Real
Estate Prices Wilt in Euro Drought ~ Europe’s
worst drought in living memory has particularly affected the popular holiday
destinations of Spain and Portugal. But this could bring reductions in
the prices of second homes, and the autumn could provide a good opportunity
for those considering buying an overseas home. By Roger Munns |

The Anomalous Real
Estate market that is Singapore - The
Anomalous Real Estate market that is Singapore ~ Being featured
in the most recent issue of Wallpaper Navigator as one of the cities to
visit, Singapore is making its reputation as a ‘city that’s learnt that
it’s ok to live a little’. Most of the efforts towards being creative
are, in its purest irony, government-driven, as detractors all too often
point out. But government sanctioned licence and creativity isn’t necessarily
a bad thing, as this city shows. By Hajar Ali |

| Real Estate in Paris
- Rent OR Purchase? Or Rent THEN Purchase? - Real
Estate in Paris - Rent OR Purchase? Or Rent THEN Purchase? ~ For
stays in Paris of five days or more, a furnished apartment turns a "tourist
into a "visitor." The moment you press the keys on the "digicode," enter
the stairwell, turn the funny looking French key in the lock and step into
your private little world fully furnished, comfortable and lived-in, you
are no longer a tourist, nor even a visitor at all -- but a real Parisian,
even if only for a few days or few weeks. By Adrian Leeds |

How
to Buy and Restore Real Estate in Fez - Morocco - How
to Buy and Restore Real Estate in Fez - Morocco ~ Fez is one of
the few places in the Islamic world where foreigners can live comfortably
and safely in the old quarter of the city. I've lived in the medina for
over seven years, and it has been a wonderful experience. At no point have
I felt threatened, and find the people here friendly and hospitable. Moroccans
are gifted with the ability to distinguish between the individual and his
or her government's acts or policies. By David Amster |

Hunting along the Littoral Norte or Costa Verde ~
Few Europeans or Americans have discovered this beautiful playground of
the Sao Paulo ‘Paulistas’ and the Rio de Janeiro ‘Cariocas.’ The
Paulistas call it the Littoral Norte whereas the Cariocas call it the Costa
Verde. My wife, a Brazilian, and I decided to rent a car and investigate
this island-speckled coast for a week to consider it as a potential retirement
destination. We selected this stretch of the Brazilian coast for a variety
of reasons. By Eric Paulson |

Real Estate in Altinkum
- Turkey - Real
Estate in Altinkum - Turkey ~ Altinkum translates as golden sand
and is a holiday resort on the south west coast of Turkey attached to the
town of Didim in the county of Aydin. Due to the
influx of British people purchasing property over the past three years
there has been an explosion of building in the resort and surrounding areas
ranging from 1 bedroom apartments to multi bedroom detached villas and
the prices range from £20 000 pounds sterling to upwards of £100
000 pounds sterling. By Haldun Ergun |

| Architects Of The
Floating World - Architects
Of The Floating World ~ Forget the little
Dutch boy who held back the deluge by putting his finger in the dike: architects
in the Netherlands are busy designing new houses that float serenely on
the flood.You can hear the jokes already: too much hydroponic skunk, a
crate or three of Grolsch, and then a sudden architectural epiphany: "Shtop!
What are we doing? Let's build chilled out houses that can go with the
flow instead up uptight dikes and defences!" By
Michael

Up Your Retirement Portfolio: Move It Offshore~Looking for
an investment that gives you consistent double-digit returns with minimal

The Housing Bubble
Revisited - The
Housing Bubble Revisited ~ If
there has been any doubt that a housing bubble really exists, recent news
should have changed that. In early July, word got out that trailers in
a mobile home park in Malibu were selling for over $1 million. Well, granted,
it’s not your ordinary trailer park—scenically located at Point Dume and
close enough to the houses of the stars that you can wave Barbra Streisand
goodnight. From Doug Casey's "What We Now Know" |

money around the world? That’s fine but who are you? - t
seems that it is impossible to move these days without someone wanting
a proof of ID. If you want a credit card or to open a bank account or book
a flight or even to open a facility with your local video shop; all of
these actions will be met with a request for proof that you are who you
say you are and you live at the address that you claim is your home. By

eBooks for Profit - What we're looking for are ideas, not Pulitzer
Prize writers. Ideas are what fuel our magazine and our website.
Now we want to expand that concept into eBooks for expats. You don't
have to be a professional writer to submit a report that provides important
information - - information that you yourself have learned by having been
there and done it. That is exactly what our readers are seeking, facts
about living overseas from people who've done it, facts about buying a
barge and sailing down the Danube, what it takes to migrate to Argentina,
how to open a business in Prague, buy an island in Belize, get a job in
Paris, start a farm in Mozambique, run an internet business out of the
Dominican Republic, run a rent-a-scooter shop in Mauritius. .

Belize: How to Live, Retire, Work or Invest in Belize - Belize
- the laid back Caribbean country of Central America! It's a favorite of
those seeking a calmer lifestyle in close proximity to the wonders of nature.
Like a un-planed 2x4 full of splinters, Belize is sturdy, rugged and full
of sandfleas, but it also has it's share of beautiful islands, adventuresome
spirits and rum soaked nights. It's the place we dreamed about as children.
A place where we could do what we wanted without being called in to wash
up for dinner. It's a place where you need to know how to repair your own
car and replace parts of your plumbing with bailing wire and tape. It's
also a place where big brother isn't looking over your shoulder and you
can set your own building codes or own a flock of chickens. It's a place
where you can spend the day fishing without trying to keep up with the
Jones's. It's also become one of the hottest expatriate destinations in
Latin America. ...it's not for everyone, but it may be for you. If so,
there's a new eBook that will take you to Belize and help you stay there.
