Buying or Selling a Property Abroad

Buying or selling a property abroad is for many, a very exciting prospect.  The process to buy and sell properties abroad is different to that in the UK.

As a firm of notaries, we do not advise on the transaction.  What we are good at is helping UK buyers and sellers arrange the witnessing of signatures on any Power of Attorney they may need.

A foreign Power of Attorney is a document we are very used to.  We have a streamlined process for dealing with this type of document.

We have a network of foreign lawyers and estate agents who refer clients to us, to facilitate their Power of Attorney being completed.

We undertake the notarisation of the document, the legalisation of the document with the FCDO (the Apostille) and finally the couriering of the finished document back to the appropriate country.

If you have any queries about a foreign Power of Attorney, please feel free to call us.

I visited Fatchett’s to have a document notarised with the addition of Apostille. Gareth handled all of this with ease, as well as communicated with the French notary regarding clarification of requirements, the sending of an electronic copy, and also organised the Apostille and the sending of the hard copy by courier. The process was taken care of for me, with was much appreciated, and helped reduce current stress levels. The single best experience of late
The service was very good and the welcome and it was quick to get the appointment
Seamless exercise! I made an enquiry online had a phone call the next day set an appointment for the next day. The best bit was the depth of knowledge they had in the subject matter knowing exactly what was required and more and all this was done with speed more importantly impeccable customer focus and service. I had a 30min slot but it was all done within 20mins but in that time I gained better understanding of what was required. So I walked away with far more than I bargained for. I would give my unreserved recommendation to Fatchett & Co you will not be disappointed and they have a broad wealth of knowledge.
Within minutes of sitting down for my meeting with Gareth I felt like a valued client. He was personable and efficient. In arranging my meeting I also had to communicate with Daniel. I found both of them to be polite and helpful. I would not hesitate to use their service again. Efficient is the word that comes to mind to describe their handling of my needs.
Thank you Daniel and the team, for an efficient service.
Yet again Gareth was incredibly efficient. He always makes the process easy and keeps you informed throughout every step.Thank you
