What we do

Founded by Robert Hallums in 2012, Experts for Expats is a combination of services and information created through collaboration between trusted specialists whose primary purpose is to reduce the stress for people living abroad.

We also work with our unique network of partners to produce guides, podcasts, webinars and videos to educate and enlighten people who face the complex challenges of living abroad. 

Common issues faced when getting a place in the sun

Every year we assist thousands of people who are moving abroad, already live abroad or are considering a holiday home in the sun.

The lure of experiencing new cultures, career opportunities or simply being able to escape to sunnier climbs brings with it hidden (and not so hidden) stresses.

Currencies and Forex

Currency fluctuations can have a major impact when you have property and financial assets in multiple countries, a small change in the exchange rate can have a significant effect on your financial situation.

Confusion with tax

Getting your tax obligations wrong can end up with seriously expensive tax bills, trying to understand the complex rules across multiple borders must not be underestimated.

Language barriers

Trying to buy property, arrange visas and sort contracts is made much more difficult when you don't speak the local language - and could end up landing you with legal issues.

Culture shock

While having a place in the sun seems awesome when you visit on holiday, real life can be very different. Ensure you spend time immersing yourself locally before making any irreversible decisions. 

How we help

We enable you to get more from your place in the sun

People who have lives spanning multiple countries face unique and stressful challenges trying to navigate taxes, finance, property, mortgages and legal matters.

Trying to do all of this on your own can be incredible stressful and your dream can very quickly turn into a nightmare.

Our goal is to introduce people to trusted experts who will help ensure your place lives up to your expectations, ensuring you are able to enjoy your place in the sun.

Contact was fast. Initial consultation was informative and helpful. The consultant was very personable, listened to my questions and was thoughtful and thorough in his responses. In a forum such as this, the consultant must convince the client that they are trustworthy and knowledgeable; The consultant I spoke with did that!

I am always anxious about following up on offers such as this because it may result in being bombarded by unsolicited emails. This did not happen and the service was what was promised. Quick, efficient and easy to use.
