How to Save Thousands When Buying Property or Moving Savings Overseas
When sending $5,000, $25,000, or $100,000+ internationally—whether for an apartment purchase in Brazil, Mexico, or Colombia, overseas tuition, or NRE investments—retail apps like Remitly or Western Union often hit strict daily or monthly sending caps, while traditional US banks (Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo) quietly take 2.5% to 3.5% in foreign exchange spread.
Dedicated FX Brokers (like OFX) specialize in transfers over $5,000. Through TransferTo.Club, members unlock $0 OFX wire fees, access to a human currency dealer who can help with central bank compliance documentation, and tight institutional spreads.
