British homeowners who are looking to move abroad are setting their sights on America, according to experts.

And the East Coast and Florida in particular is known to be the popular choice with people who are considering moving to live in the US, said Paul Collins, editor at BuyAssociation, as there will always be a good tourist market in these locations.

“From an investment point of view, it is always good and people are still keen to buy for lifetyle reasons,” he explained.

During the current economical climate, Mr Collins said that those considering moving across the pond should consider using a specialist currency provider rather than a high street bank, as it could potentially save thousands of pounds.

Primelocation.com has recently reported searches for homes abroad have increased by 111 per cent in the year April 2010, with the number of people looking for homes in America up 145 per cent.

According to new figures, two thirds of British women are bored with their lives and many dream of moving to Australia, Canada or elsewhere in Europe as an escape.

The study carried out by Elaine Smith of Florette Fruit’s marketing department surveyed 3,000 women and found that most were fed up with the list of chores they had to do when they returned home from work each day, complaining about their lack of holidays and time to themselves.

A third of those questioned said they wanted to move abroad seeing it as a common solution to the daily drudgery of life. Moving to Australia or South Africa where the sun shines daily and most people spent time outdoors is the most attractive prospect for most people liking in the UK.

Smith said that women’s dissatisfaction with life stems from the fact that they are so busy trying to juggle family and work life. She added, “It’s no surprise two-thirds of British women are bored with their lives and half are sick of doing the same thing day in, day out. Women have lost the get-up-and-go to try something different.”
