The factors that will determine where an individual buys a foreign property relates mainly to their motives for purchase. Someone who buys a property with financial gain solely in mind may not give much attention to the climate or sociological factors of a potential place. They will look at the likely capital growth and yield that the property is likely to offer.

In contrast, an elderly retired couple, one of whom has arthritis would pay very close attention to climate considerations of the region the property is in - as well as other social factors such as the lifestyle enjoyed by its citizens. Capital appreciation is not likely to be high on their agenda for choosing a retirement property.

There are several broad reasons that people may have for purchasing a property from abroad. Here are some of the main ones:

• They wish to relocate to a geographical location that better suits their lifestyle, income and circumstances. For example, in the UK a surprisingly high number of people emigrate to Spain because of it’s climate, relative low cost of living and the cheaper property prices.

The modern region of Limousin is essentially composed of two historical French provinces:

    * Limousin: the Corrèze department in its entirety and the central and southeastern part of Haute-Vienne. The old province of Limousin is entirely contained inside the modern Limousin region.
    * Marche: most of the Creuse department and the north and northeastern part of the Haute-Vienne. The old province of Marche is almost entirely contained inside the current Limousin region, with only a small part of Marche being now in the Centre region.

Beside these two main provinces, Limousin is also composed of small parts of other former provinces:

    * Angoumois: extreme south-west of Haute-Vienne
    * Poitou: extreme west of Haute-Vienne
    * Auvergne: extreme east of Creuse
    * Berry: extreme north of Creuse
