What do I need to know when buying property in Ohio?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats what advice they would give a foreigner before buying a property in Ohio, they said...

"When buying property in Ohio, it is important to research the area to make sure it is the right fit. You should also check with the county auditor’s office to confirm the property taxes and any other assessments on the property. This will help you to determine any additional costs you may incur. It is also important to consider the need for a home inspection to check for necessary repairs or other issues. Additionally, Ohio buyers must decide on the type of title insurance and whether to purchase separate surveys or inspections. Be sure to consult with a real estate lawyer or agent to ensure all legal documentation is in order. To avoid potential foreclosure, buyers in Ohio should also be aware of the state’s mortgage foreclosure avoidance options," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Ohio.
