What do I need to know when buying property in Connecticut?
When we asked expats what advice they would give a foreigner before buying a property in Connecticut, they said...
"- When buying property in Connecticut, it is important to know the state's property tax rate and any applicable special assessments. - You should also familiarize yourself with the different types of zoning that may affect your desired property. - It is important to research local regulations, restrictions and resources that may affect your property, such as setback requirements, conservation land, wetland regulations, and more. - Make sure to consult a professional Realtor for help with researching, financing and negotiating the purchase of your property. - It is also a good idea to look into hiring a home inspector to evaluate the condition of the home before you purchase," wrote a member who made the move to Connecticut.
