Buy Anywhere: Why International Buyers Choose Anyone.com
03 Nov 2025Buying a home abroad is exciting but it can be confusing, fragmented, and slow. Anyone.com connects you with local agents around the world and guides your entire transaction online: offers, documents, milestones, and communication all on one platform so you can move with confidence, wherever you’re headed.
The challenge international buyers face
If you’re purchasing in a country you don’t yet call home, you’re navigating unfamiliar rules, fast‑moving markets, time zones, and a thicket of paperwork. Even seasoned property investors hit friction around:
Local rules & process. Eligibility, offer etiquette, notaries vs. escrow, and country‑specific timelines differ widely.
Finding the right agent. You want someone local, responsive, and aligned with your goals (live, rent, invest),ideally with data to back up performance.
Documents & deadlines. Offers, inspections, financing, and closing tasks must stay in lockstep, even when you’re thousands of miles away.
Payments & currency. Exchange‑rate swings and transfer fees can change your real cost at the last minute; planning matters.
Digital signing & identity. Electronic signatures and cross‑border identity verification exist, but the rules vary by country and are rolling out in stages in the EU.
You’re not alone. International demand is real and growing in many markets. In the U.S., for example, buyers from abroad purchased about $56 billion in homes in the 12 months to March 2025, with Florida the top destination. Spain consistently records a double‑digit share of home sales to foreign buyers, underlining the breadth of cross‑border activity.
How Anyone.com makes buying abroad simpler
International buyers use Anyone.com to buy property abroad and navigate international real estate with trusted local agents and one country aware online workspace that organizes offers, documents, and deadlines, keeps everything compliant, and delivers faster closings.
1. A global network of vetted local agents
Search by city or neighborhood and connect with top local buyer’s agents who actually close in those areas. Compare languages spoken, response times, and recent activity. Start a conversation instantly, or book a consult for your time zone.
2. One guided workspace for the whole transaction
No more scattered email threads or file‑sharing puzzles. Your offer, documents, tasks, and timeline live in one place, shared with your agent and, where applicable, the seller’s side. You’ll see what’s complete, what’s blocked, and what’s next.
3. Offers and negotiations structured and compliant
Build an offer with prompts that reflect local customs (prices, contingencies, deadlines). Attach the right documents, route it to the listing agent or seller, and track responses, counters, and comment history neatly in‑app.
4. Country‑aware steps without the jargon
From reservation agreements to escrow or notarial signings, the workflow adapts to local norms, while your agent explains what each step means, what to prepare, and when to act.
5. Built for remote, digital progress
Where legally supported, e‑sign and ID verification help you progress without flying in for every step. (EU trust services continue to evolve under the updated eIDAS framework; we reflect local realities in your plan.)
What it feels like to buy with Anyone.com
Meet Aisha, moving from Dubai to Barcelona
Aisha shortlists Barcelona and Gràcia, then connects with two Barcelona agents who speak English and Arabic. She schedules video tours, shortlists three apartments, and submits a compliant offer within the app. Her timeline shows notary dates and document checks; currency reminders pop up from her agent a week before the deposit is due. She closes from abroad and lands in a home that fits, without losing weeks to coordination.
Meet Rafael, investing from Mexico City in Austin
Rafael cares about school districts and rental potential. He uses neighborhood filters, reviews agents by transaction history, and requests comps from inside the workspace. His agent proposes an offer strategy, and they negotiate through tracked counters. When earnest money and closing funds are due, Rafael knows exactly when to transfer.
