Thinking About Moving Abroad? Here’s How to Make It Happen Smoothly

by Jennifer Jinnette

If you’ve ever imagined a life filled with new experiences, meaningful connections, and a slower pace, maybe mornings spent walking cobblestone streets in Portugal or evenings watching the sunset from a café in Costa Rica, you’re not alone.

More Americans are exploring life abroad for greater balance, cultural immersion, and a deeper sense of purpose. Whether you’re craving adventure, sustainability, or a more affordable lifestyle, international living can offer all of that and more.

At Foundation Real Estate Group, we believe home is wherever your story continues, and we’re here to help you get there.


1. Start with a Purposeful Sale

Your move abroad begins at home. Selling your U.S. property isn’t just a transaction; it’s the first step toward a more intentional life.

Our team helps sellers prepare their homes strategically and ethically, using marketing that highlights community, lifestyle, and local connection. We believe in doing business the right way: transparent, fair, and human-centered.

2. Find Your Place in the World

Relocating internationally means discovering where your values align, whether that’s a walkable European city with strong public transit or a coastal town where sustainability and community matter most.

Through eXp Realty’s global network, we connect you with vetted, like-minded professionals around the world who care about people, culture, and protecting the places we call home.


3. Plan for a Conscious Transition

Moving abroad is as much emotional as it is logistical. You’re not just packing boxes; you’re stepping into a new rhythm of life.

We’ll help you think through every detail with care:

  • Timing your U.S. sale and international purchase

  • Understanding visa options and residency rules

  • Managing eco-friendly shipping and relocation choices

  • Finding temporary or long-term housing that fits your lifestyle


4. Partner with a Team That Shares Your Values

Our passion for global living is rooted in openness, curiosity, and respect for different ways of life. At Foundation Real Estate Group, we see real estate as a bridge connecting people, communities, and opportunities across borders.

Whether you’re looking to reduce your footprint, expand your worldview, or simply begin a new chapter, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.
