    Question is, where best to sell it (through).

    My dad buys a few BTL villas in Portugal. He always uses estate agents out there, he also tries to find ones run by ex-pats.

    question for you is:

    are you looking for an investment property, or a villa for you and the missus to escape to a few times a year to get away from gloomy Swindon ?

    Where does the average Brit look (not the location/country but how do they find the property they like) when buying overseas?
