Assisted Retirement Community
outside the US
You might need to do some homework if you want to retire outside the US. There are a few points that you need to look into:
- The political situation in the country that you are planning to retire in.
- The cost of living.
- The policies for foreigners residing in that particular country.
- The healthcare system.
- Transportation system.
- The crime rate of that particular country.
|
The language- - for example, you are looking for an assisted retirement community in Spain, and you have no clue about the Spanish language.
The tax structure of the country that you have chosen.
It may be a good idea to contact the embassy or consulate of the country that you are planning to relocate to.
Even before you start doing your homework on the country of your choice, make
sure that you really want to leave behind all that you have known and loved for
all these years.
