Last year was undoubtedly a year that many people had to deal with tough financial situations, including making challenging decisions on their investments and in particular their overseas property investments. The economic downturn of 2009 meant that many developers and real estate agents were forced to re-examine and curtail their resources, and in considerable cases, close down. Accordingly hundreds of thousands of overseas property investors were left feeling abandoned and alone. It was Solutions Overseas who was available to support these distressed clients.

Solutions Overseas are experts in the overseas property industry. They not only advise clients individually but last year hundreds of developers and real estate agents worldwide also employed their consultancy services. Solutions Overseas team Members not only have over 40 years combined experience in the property industry, but speak a variety of languages, coming to the aid of overseas developers who struggle to communicate to clients due to language barriers.

Solutions Overseas offer every service you could possibly need on your overseas property; Snagging, Industrial Cleans, Furniture, Rental Solutions, Insurance and many more services.

Last year saw Solutions Overseas lead the overseas property furniture industry, installing over 2,700 packs in 2009. Solutions Overseas also led the installation process in many developments. For example, it was the first company to install furniture in the development Aspen Heights, Bansko, Bulgaria.

Solutions Overseas actively got involved with encouraging clients to chat together and create development communities through the Solutions Overseas Facebook page. This then grew to Solutions Overseas advising owner associations directly. For example, the forum www.banskostudios.co.uk asked if Solutions Overseas would participate in amalgamating property owners, in the hope of attaining solutions to development or management issues. Solutions Overseas now sponsors www.banskostudios.co.uk.

The last twelve months has also seen the growth of Solutions Overseas´ sister brand; Rental Solutions Overseas (www.rentalsolutionsoverseas.com), marketing properties worldwide. Property owners who desperately needed a solution to their cash flow problem enjoyed the advantages of marketing their property with Rental Solutions Overseas. This no fuss approach to rentals not only meant that all bookings were managed on the owners´ behalf, but owners benefited from Rental Solutions Overseas´ travel industry connections and its ability to yield rental income on the owner´s behalf. Owners also had their properties marketed on well known regional radio stations, one for example being Dublin´s FM104 Radio.

So what effect did 2009 have and what does 2010 have in store for Solutions Overseas and its´ clients? Commenting on the subject, Corporate Director, Jessica Hyde had this to say; “2009 was the turning point for Solutions Overseas. It was not only our most successful year, but it also showed us exactly what we can achieve in an economic crisis. This is thanks to the loyalty of our clients. Every day I receive thank you messages and emails from clients who felt lost and came to us for help and solutions. Now I want to take this opportunity to thank them for all their support in 2009.”

“I can tell you that we have massive expansion plans in the pipeline for 2010. The first plan has been launched with our new look website (www.solutionsoverseas.com) which clients can now see live. I am personally very excited about this launch as it means that we can now offer furniture in just under 50 countries worldwide. This is only the beginning for Solutions Overseas and our clients in 2010.”
