Anybody know anything about buying houses in Jersey
Am I right in thinking you can't unless you're a resident and you can't be a resident unless you've got like £1 million in the bank or something daft?

It may have changed recently, but IIRC as an incommer, you used to have to have been working resident for 20 plus years and have an annual income of circa £1m.
But yes, its pretty near impossible

Move to Guernsey, it's cheaper and not full of Crapauds.
Actually it's quite difficult to get into either long term unless your employer can get you a license, or you are seriously minted, or only want to stay for 9 months and work in something like the agricultural or tourist/hospitality industry, or you could try the finance industry, loads of jobs in that sector.

My Sister lives on Sark,
if i recall, you could buy a property, but could not stay in it for the first 12 months.
they have some strange laws regarding buildings and property on Guernsey

Thanks for the info but it is Jersey rather than the other Islands and it sounds like the people approaching me may be able to swing the housing side of things. Cheers
