Hello,

it's what u say that is important. Its not the money. I need some information to get started.. that's all. I am new to the game of real estate and i am seeking mentoring figures to help me get the headstart. I read alot of books about real estate but everytime i try to find something on google about dutch real estate its different, that's why it's hard for me...

Yours thruly,

Hi, my name is Jim i am 20 years old and i have the chance to go to a 4 day training about real estate, the man who is speaking there i met 2 times already. I followed his workshop and spoke to him personally. He appears to be the only dutch guy to do seminars amd training about real estate. Here is my doubt: "my family doesnt trust the situation (they did not met the man) and they are all telling me i should not pay for his 4 day training... this could be a live changing training or it could be a disaster. (It costs 2500 eu) what to do?

So i am 20 years old have a full-time job and still live at my parents house. I really want to start buying a property and rent it to a tenant. Is this even possible? Or do i have to have an house of my own to get started?

(Beginners question)

Hello, My name is jim and i am 20 years old. I am from the Netherlands. I just discovered that house hacking is a thing in my country (nice!) But how oh how can i afford the house ? I want a mortgage ofcourse but i cant have a bigger mortgage than 88.000 $ for a house thats worth 275.000$. Is it stupid to question how i can increase the mortgage at my age??

@Erwin Groenendijk Hi, yea u are right. And no i don't have any good experience in real estate i am still 20 years old and just start working 40 hours a week. But i will follow a seminar about the dutch real estate market in 2 weeks from now. Hoping to get more educated doing that.

Hello, for anyone that can give me advice about how to invest my money in real estate in the netherlands?

There are so many people in my country that says i cant do those strategies here in the netherlands, i want to find out if that is really true? I believe i can do the same thing in the netherlands as people can in america am i right or wrong?
