IPBN Aims & Objectives The International Property Buyers Network (IPBN) has been created to inform, empower and support buyers purchasing property in the difficult overseas and international property markets. Over the past few years there has been a huge increase in the numbers of ordinary investors looking to purchase property overseas and unfortunately there has also been a corresponding increase in the problems faced by those investors and owners. While various websites and forums have tried to provide support none focus on the key issues facing the unwary investor.  | Off-plan vs Resale: Off-plan purchasing can often look like the cheapest and easiest way to owning a new home overseas. However, for the first-time buyer this route can often be the most perilousness due to the nature of the unregulated markets that many international estate agents and developers work in. While off-plan purchasing often looks attractive, the risk / benefits often don't stack up and a wise investor will often look at resales opportunities for the real bargains. Our community explores both and offers help and advise along the way. |  | Speculation vs a home abroad: For many, the lure of earning fast money on overseas property investment is simply too powerful to resist. Capital growth projections provided by sales agents and developers often look attractive and the concept of "flipping" your property just before completion is incredibly tempting. So, is flipping possible or even likely for the average investor abroad or should you simply buy to own not buy to let. Our community discuss this and many related topics in our forums, blogs and chat areas. Join in today and be a part of the solution not the problem. |
After looking at common problems faced by all investors, it is clear that the key to investment success or failure is the period before money exchanges hands. After this - it is often too late. With this in mind, the IPBN has been created to provide solutions and support including: - pre-sales support and evaluation of opportunity
- unbiased help & guidance throughout the purchasing process
- professional help and advice
- supplier ratings & reviews (member created and modified)
- powerful communication tools - groups, blogs, forums, chat rooms and more
- member benefits including discount property insurance
- recommended professional support network
