Florida and its surrounding sunny coastal areas remain a premier destination for international property buyers. Whether your clients are retirees looking for a villa on the Gulf Coast, expats moving to Miami, or families seeking a vacation home near Orlando, buying a home in the Sunshine State is an exciting adventure.

However, transferring high-value funds across borders to secure a property deposit or complete a purchase can often cause buyers a lot of worry. Traditional bank delays and high exchange rate markups can easily slow down your transactions or even put a sale at risk.

By partnering with CurrencyFair, real estate agents in Florida can simplify the payment experience for their overseas buyers, protect them from expensive bank fees, and keep property sales moving forward without delay.

How Do Traditional Banks Impact Florida Property Sales?

When overseas buyers use traditional banks to fund a real estate purchase in the US, they face three major hurdles:

• Expensive Exchange Rates: Traditional banks typically add a heavy markup of 3% to 6% on exchange rates. On a $900,000 home purchase, this markup can cost your client thousands of dollars that could have been spent on home renovations or furnishings.

• Frustrating Delays: Missing a crucial closing date because a bank transfer is held up in transit is a stressful experience for both the buyer and the agent.

• Lack of Real Help: Moving life savings across borders is a major milestone. Buyers need clear guidance, but traditional financial institutions often offer little more than automated, cold customer service.
