Your European dream is closer than you think.
Let’s bring it to life.
We’ve Got Every Step of the Way Covered
The Property
We will help you find the right location and the right property, using our first-hand knowledge and extensive contacts across the continent.
Property Finance (from Australia)
We have an experienced Australian mortgage broker who can assist with financing in relation to an overseas property purchase. If you have built up substantial equity in your Australian home, there may be ways to access some of the equity to help fund an overseas property purchase - while retaining your Australian home.
We can connect you with a specialist who can explain the options, and which strategy would be most suitable to your circumstances.
Legal, Accounting, Tax and Visas
A move to another country, and all the paperwork that comes with it, can be daunting. We’ve built a network of trusted professionals covering all aspects of buying property in Europe.
Property Finance (from overseas)
We have an agreement with an Overseas Property Finance specialist who can arrange finance for non-residents purchasing property in Cyprus, Greece and Italy, plus many others - on a case-by-case basis and subject to an applicant’s overall personal financial position and property valuation. He has over 40 years’ experience in this market.

Both Albania and Montenegro do not have mortgage brokers to assist non-residents, however we are aware of one bank in Albania and two banks in Montenegro who provide such finance.
All the Rest
Getting the keys to your property is not the end of your journey, but just the beginning. We’ve put together a comprehensive guide covering the major aspects of life in your new European home.
Currency Exchange
We have an arrangement with trusted global currency experts who have been operating since 2004. They are a fully licenced and regulated Australian (and global) company with the highest possible level 1 credit rating with Dun & Bradstreet. The company are multi award winners and can assist with the transfer of funds in relation to an overseas property purchase and any other repatriation of funds.
They provide all our clients with a dedicated account manager to assist you with every step of the money transfer process. TorFX can save you thousands with more competive exchange rates than most banks and don’t charge any transfer or bank fees. They also offer a best rate guarantee against competitor exchange rates.

We Were Once in the Same Boat
Euro Property Concierge is a family-run, Australian-owned business, born out of our experience making the dream of an endless summer a reality, and our desire to help others do the same.
Our overseas property journey began in May 2019 when we purchased a charming two-bedroom apartment in Scalea, Italy. The apartment has breathtaking views, is just a short stroll from the beach, and its location on the west coast of Italy treats us to spectacular sunsets.
The COVID-19 pandemic initially delayed our plans to enjoy the apartment ourselves, but it has since become a haven for our family, friends, and other visitors who have all fallen in love with the region. Many people express surprise at our "lucky" investment, but we believe that anyone with the desire and resources can achieve the same.
Having lived overseas for 13 years (in Papua New Guinea, the United Kingdom, the British Virgin Islands, and Vanuatu) and visited over 70 countries, we understand the unique challenges of relocating and buying property abroad.
After retiring in June 2023, we embarked on a 6-month European adventure, using our Italian apartment as a base to explore 14 countries. Inspired by the magic of Europe, we decided to share our experience and expertise with others. We realised that many people dream of owning property in Europe but don't know where to start or who to trust. That's where we come in.
We've established partnerships with trusted professionals (real estate agents, lawyers, and tax advisors) in several European destinations. Our real estate agents have extensive knowledge of the local property market, our lawyers are well-versed in international property laws, and our tax advisors can help you navigate the tax implications of overseas property ownership. We've personally met with these experts and are confident in their ability to guide you through the entire process.
