When you’re moving or returning to the UK from Hong Kong: what do you need to consider?
- Understanding your budget is essential. Make sure you account for all the fees house-buying will raise, such as stamp duty, legal fees and removal costs.
- You’ll no doubt have considered the tax implications of your return. It’s wise to seek advice about investments and tax planning early on to ensure you make the best decisions.
- For many, moving to the UK is prompted by plans for educating your children. If choosing a school is part of your relocation, there are many things to consider which you may not be aware of, it often feels as if the school system in the UK keeps changing. Seeking help to understand what your options are is essential.
- If there are members of your family without British citizenship it’s important to explore your options as early as possible, making sure you get the necessary paperwork in place.
Your Stacks representative will be your guide through the process of seeking your new home in the UK. Whatever your question, we’ll find you the support you need.
