London, UK – May 22, 2025 – Your Overseas Home, a trusted platform for helping buyers find property abroad, and XE.com, a global leader in international payments, have joined forces to highlight a major shift in global real estate: a sharp rise in interest from US citizens seeking homes in Europe. This transatlantic boom signals fresh opportunities—and crucial strategic adaptations—for real estate professionals and investors on both sides of the Atlantic.

Recent data from Your Overseas Home reveals a 4X increase in US enquiries for properties in Spain and Portugal, and a 2X surge across key destinations such as France, Italy, Greece, and Cyprus.

“We’re witnessing an unprecedented wave of US demand for European homes,” says Jana Harris, Director of Your Overseas Home. “Our latest data shows that lifestyle, political climate, and the economic benefits of owning property in Europe are aligning perfectly to create an ideal environment for transatlantic investment.”

  • Spain: Alicante, Malaga, Costa del Sol, Costa Blanca
  • France: Provence, Côte d’Azur
  • Portugal: Lisbon, Algarve
  • Italy: Tuscany, Sicily
  • Greece: Crete, Peloponnese

To support this trend, XE.com offers secure, efficient international money transfers, helping buyers navigate complex cross-border financial transactions with confidence.

“Navigating currency volatility and international payments is often one of the biggest concerns for overseas buyers,” adds a Jose Ivars-Lopez from XE.com“Our partnership with Your Overseas Home ensures buyers have access to all information needed for such a significant move overseas and XE.com supports US investors with  cost-effective payment solutions and  when purchasing property abroad.”
