A third of the UK's population has considered buying cheap overseas property, a survey conducted by YouGov for NatWest International has discovered.

Of 2,600 people questioned, just under 750 said they had considered buying overseas, while just under 100

- 4 per cent of the sample - said they already owned overseas property.

Just over half of would-be buyers said they would consider a holiday home as part of their pension pot and the same percentage said they were attracted by the investment potential of overseas properties. Again, half said they hoped to make money by letting their holiday homes.

Half of those surveyed with homes abroad, paid less than £100,000 for their property and three quarters paid £300,000 or less.

Many of those considering buying overseas will be doing so to retire. Three quarters of 30 to 50 year olds questioned said they would consider leaving the UK permanently. Although the over 50s were more reluctant to leave Britain, half still said they intended to move abroad.

"It is evident from our research that many Brits intend to escape the hectic British lifestyle to enjoy a more relaxed standard of living overseas", said head of business development at NatWest International, Mike Freer. "Surprisingly, it's the 'middle ages' who are most keen to make the move, perhaps prompted by demanding jobs and continuous warnings to plan for the future."

Spain was the most popular holiday home hot spot with half of potential overseas property purchasers saying they would choose Spain to buy. Here, holiday homes are even more affordable than the average overseas property - only a fifth of Brits with Spanish homes questioned, paid over £200,000. Those with holiday homes in Spain also said they got extensive use from their properties - two thirds said they spend at least a quarter of the year living in their Spanish property.

"Buying a holiday home is a realistic option for many people and it needn't cost the earth", said Freer. With the right advice and a favourable mortgage, overseas properties can provide a fantastic lifestyle, great investment potential and somewhere to escape the chaos of life back home! With people increasingly looking to retire overseas, buying abroad can provide a realistic and affordable option for many."
