Megan Holland
Megan is Country Manager for Lumon in Portugal - a specialist currency transfer provider who have been helping internationals with their foreign currency exchange for over 20 years. Megan say's 'When buying property overseas many people fail to realise just how important the currency exchange aspect of the property purchase is and how banks are not your best friend! The slightest exchange rate fluctuation can make a huge difference in the pocket!
One way of looking at it is that you would never buy a house in your home country without knowing how much it is going to cost you, and until you have locked into a rate of exchange you simply have no idea how much your dream home in Portugal will eventually cost!

I became a fully certified lawyer in 2001 and have been working since then mainly with expats. This has been a true privilege! Being invited to be part of this group is seen as a challenge which I am willing to accept, knowing the difficulties that expats have, when moving and living in Portugal.
